RestTemplate Test w specific parameters for REST Controller

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I am writing Integration Tests for controllers using RestTemplate, so far I have been able to call most , however haven't been able to tackle this particular parameter combination.

I know how to deal with headers, GET or PUT parameters, but multiple String is sole one that have yet to figure. Dunno if @Annotations make difference.

@RequestMapping(value="/getBook", method = GET)   
@ResponseStatus(OK)   
public @ResponseBody  
GetBookResponse getBook(@RequestParam("isbnID") String isbnID, @RequestParam(required=false) Double price, @RequestHeader(required=false) String publisher)                                                             
     {
.....
}

and how this would work in the case for POST

Normally I use ResponseEntity to get response but been stuck pn how to prep it.

Typically we create a new HttpRequest and add the request parameters">parameters to it and submit your HttpRequest with all its corresponding parameters">parameters in your post. I don't know how to implement it with the framework you are using though. I've written tests for controllers and this is how I did it. GET request usually has just one parameter in the url so you don't really have to add request parameters">parameters but POST should have request parameters">parameters set to the httpRequest.
