JUnit 5 Parameterized Test - 'Cannot invoke non-static method' in @MethodSource with Kotlin

Expect

Convert a standard JUnit 5 test into a parameterized test in order to iterate through a stream of test cases using the @ParamterizedTest and @MethodSource annotations in Kotlin.

Observe

The @MethodSource is unable to access the stream of data. This seems to be an issue with this annotation specifically, as @ValueSource(strings = ["SF", "NYC"]) iterates through the statically defined options as expected.

Error:

PreconditionViolationException: Cannot invoke non-static method {someMethodName} on a null target.

Implement

The parameterized test is set to pass in a stream of data classes similar to the setup outlined by Phillip Hauer in Data Classes for Parameterized Tests.

Code

build.gradle (:SomeProject)

dependencies {
    ...    
    classpath("de.mannodermaus.gradle.plugins:android-junit5:$junit5_version")
}

build.gradle (:someModule)

apply plugin: "de.mannodermaus.android-junit5"
android {
    ...
    compileOptions.targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
}
dependencies {
    testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.6.2"
    testRuntimeOnly "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:5.6.2"
    testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-params:5.6.2"
}

SomeTest.kt

class SomeTest {
    private val testDispatcher = TestCoroutineDispatcher()

    private fun someDataStates() = Stream.of(
        // Kotlin data class
        TestState("123"),
        TestState("345")
    )

    @ParameterizedTest
    @MethodSource("someDataStates")
    fun someTest(testState: TestState) = testDispatcher.runBlockingTest {
        // Test state here.
        ...
    }
}

Attempted solutions

1. Refactor test case data states to a top-level function.

TestCases.kt

fun someDataStates() = Stream.of(
    TestState("123"),
    TestState("345")
)

SomeTest.kt

private fun SomeDataStates() = someDataStates()

@ParameterizedTest
@MethodSource("SomeDataStates")
fun someTest(testState: TestState) = testDispatcher.runBlockingTest {
   // Test state here.
   ...

}

2. Refactor test case data states to a top-level function of type List instead of Stream.

fun someDataStates() = listOf(
    TestState("123"),
    TestState("345")
)

Solution

  • I guess you're missing the information, to tell JUnit to instantiate your test class once, like this:

    import org.junit.jupiter.api.TestInstance
import org.junit.jupiter.api.TestInstance.Lifecycle.PER_CLASS

@TestInstance(PER_CLASS) // <--- This one will do the trick
class SomeTest {

    private val testDispatcher = TestCoroutineDispatcher()

    @ParameterizedTest
    @MethodSource("someDataStates")
    fun someTest(testState: TestState) = testDispatcher.runBlockingTest {
        // Test state here.
        ...
    }

    private fun someDataStates() = listOf(
        TestState("123"),
        TestState("345")
    )
}
