This article will explain how we can automate REST web service testing using Arquillian and JBoss web server.
First, you must create a javaee6 war (non-blank) project from jboss-javaee6 archetype. This should create a project with Member model, service, repository, controller and web service resource. The archetype will also generate a test case for the controller with test data source and persistence file.
In case you don't have the archetype, I'm writing the most important classes: Model
package com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.model;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;
import javax.persistence.UniqueConstraint;
import javax.validation.constraints.Digits;
import javax.validation.constraints.NotNull;
import javax.validation.constraints.Pattern;
import javax.validation.constraints.Size;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import org.hibernate.validator.constraints.Email;
import org.hibernate.validator.constraints.NotEmpty;
@SuppressWarnings("serial")
@Entity
@XmlRootElement
@Table(uniqueConstraints = @UniqueConstraint(columnNames = "email"))
public class Member implements Serializable {
@Id
@GeneratedValue
private Long id;
@NotNull
@Size(min = 1, max = 25)
@Pattern(regexp = "[^0-9]*", message = "Must not contain numbers")
private String name;
@NotNull
@NotEmpty
@Email
private String email;
@NotNull
@Size(min = 10, max = 12)
@Digits(fraction = 0, integer = 12)
@Column(name = "phone_number")
private String phoneNumber;
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
public String getPhoneNumber() {
return phoneNumber;
}
public void setPhoneNumber(String phoneNumber) {
this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;
}
}
Web service resource:

Member resource interface to be use in arquillian testing:
package com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.rest;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.POST;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.model.Member;
@Consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Path("/members")
public interface IMemberResourceRESTService {
@POST
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Path("/")
public Response createMember(Member member);
}
And finally the test class that creates the archive and deploy it on jboss container:
package com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.test;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status;
import org.apache.http.HttpStatus;
import org.jboss.arquillian.container.test.api.Deployment;
import org.jboss.arquillian.extension.rest.client.ArquillianResteasyResource;
import org.jboss.arquillian.junit.Arquillian;
import org.jboss.arquillian.test.api.ArquillianResource;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.Archive;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.ShrinkWrap;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.asset.EmptyAsset;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.spec.WebArchive;
import org.junit.Assert;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.model.Member;
import com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.rest.IMemberResourceRESTService;
import com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.rest.JaxRsActivator;
import com.broodcamp.jboss_javaee6_war.service.MemberRegistration;
@RunWith(Arquillian.class)
public class MemberResourceRESTServiceTest {
private Logger log = LoggerFactory
.getLogger(MemberResourceRESTServiceTest.class);
@ArquillianResource
private URL deploymentURL;
@Deployment(testable = false)
public static Archive createTestArchive() {
return ShrinkWrap
.create(WebArchive.class, "rest.war")
.addClass(JaxRsActivator.class)
.addPackages(true, "com/broodcamp/jboss_javaee6_war")
.addAsResource("META-INF/test-persistence.xml",
"META-INF/persistence.xml")
.addAsWebInfResource(EmptyAsset.INSTANCE, "beans.xml")
// Deploy our test datasource
.addAsWebInfResource("test-ds.xml");
}
@Inject
MemberRegistration memberRegistration;
@Test
public void testCreateMember(
@ArquillianResteasyResource IMemberResourceRESTService memberResourceRESTService)
throws Exception {
Member newMember = new Member();
newMember.setName("czetsuya");
newMember.setEmail("czetsuya@gmail.com");
newMember.setPhoneNumber("1234567890");
Response response = memberResourceRESTService.createMember(newMember);
log.info("Response=" + response.getStatus());
Assert.assertEquals(response.getStatus(), HttpStatus.SC_OK);
}
}
To run that we need the following dependencies:
For arquillian testing:
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.junit</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-junit-container</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.protocol</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-protocol-servlet</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
For rest testing:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.extension</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-rest-client-impl-3x</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.Alpha3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
<artifactId>resteasy-jackson-provider</artifactId>
<version>${version.resteasy}</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.extension</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-rest-client-impl-jersey</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.Alpha3</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
To run the test we need to create a maven profile as follows:
<profile>
<!-- Run with: mvn clean test -Parq-jbossas-managed -->
<id>arq-jbossas-managed</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.as</groupId>
<artifactId>jboss-as-arquillian-container-managed</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</profile>
arquillian.xml to be save inside the src/test/resources folder.
