Problems running JerseyTest when dealing with HttpServletResponse


Here is a sample Resource class:

@Path("/resource") 
public class SomeResource { 
    @GET 
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_XML}) 
    public String someMethod(@QueryParam("param1") String param1, ..., @Context HttpServletRequest request) { 
            String remoteUser = request.getRemoteAddr(); 
            // Business logic here. 
            return response; 
    } 
} 

And the JerseyTest for the resource:

public class TestSomeResource extends JerseyTest    { 
    @Override 
    protected Application configure() { 
            enable(TestProperties.LOG_TRAFFIC); 
            return new ResourceConfig(SomeResource.class); 
    } 

    @Test 
    public void testXMLResponse()   { 
            String response = target("resource") 
                            .queryParam("param1", param1) 
                            // More parameters here. 
                            .request() 
                            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML) 
                            .get(String.class); 
            // Some assertions on response. 
    } 
} 

I am able to run jersey tests for all other resources except the ones using @Context HttpServletRequest as an input parameter. It gives a InternalServerErrorException: HTTP 500 Internal Server Error.

Following is the stacktrace:

Solution

  • You exception is related to the fact that the HttpServletRequest is null.

    Jersey documentation says:

    3.6. Use of @Context

    Previous sections have introduced the use of @Context. Chapter 5 of the JAX-RS specification presents all the standard JAX-RS Java types that may be used with @Context.

    When deploying a JAX-RS application using servlet then ServletConfig, ServletContext, HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse are available using @Context.

    I'm guessing that you use jersey-test-framework-provider-grizzly2 which doesn't support it.

    If you want to have access to HttpServletResponse remove that dependency and add:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.test-framework</groupId>
        <artifactId>jersey-test-framework-core</artifactId>
        <version>2.1</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
        <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.1</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.containers</groupId>
        <artifactId>jersey-container-grizzly2-servlet</artifactId>
        <version>2.1</version>
    </dependency>
    

    Now you actually want to tell JerseyTest to start the right test server, to do that you have to override a method protected TestContainerFactory getTestContainerFactory(). Please be sure to replace <your-java-package> with the actual name of your package.

    @Override
    protected TestContainerFactory getTestContainerFactory() throws TestContainerException {
        return new TestContainerFactory() {
            @Override
            public TestContainer create(final URI baseUri, final ApplicationHandler application) throws IllegalArgumentException {
                return new TestContainer() {
                    private HttpServer server;
    
                    @Override
                    public ClientConfig getClientConfig() {
                        return null;
                    }
    
                    @Override
                    public URI getBaseUri() {
                        return baseUri;
                    }
    
                    @Override
                    public void start() {
                        try {
                            this.server = GrizzlyWebContainerFactory.create(
                                    baseUri, Collections.singletonMap("jersey.config.server.provider.packages", "<your-java-package>")
                            );
                        } catch (ProcessingException e) {
                            throw new TestContainerException(e);
                        } catch (IOException e) {
                            throw new TestContainerException(e);
                        }
                    }
    
                    @Override
                    public void stop() {
                        this.server.stop();
                    }
                };
    
            }
        };
    }
    

    You can also check org.glassfish.jersey.test.grizzly.GrizzlyTestContainerFactory for better implementation of the factory.
