To where was HttpClient's LocalTestServer moved?

I've read about how HttpClient's LocalTestServer can be used for automated testing, however I can't seem to find where it's been moved. I tried defining dependency to httpclient with tests classifier:

'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.2:tests'

but there doesn't seem to be a LocalTestServer class defined in there. Has this been discontinued?

Solution

  • Your test should now extend org.apache.http.localserver.LocalServerTestBase.

    This is available in the httpclient module with classifier tests.

    Your pom could look like:

    <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
    <artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
    <version>4.5.2</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
    <classifier>tests</classifier>
</dependency>
