Unit testing unitils - dbmaintain Filip Neven provides an overview of Unitils and how it can help with testing persistence layers and database maintenance. Key features demonstrated include loading test data using @DataSet annotations, verifying database contents with @ExpectedDataSet, and integrating with JPA and Spring frameworks. Reflection assertions and transaction support utilities are also highlighted.
30. Persistence layer testing – DAO example public class UserDao { @PersistenceContext private EntityManager entityManager; public List<User> findByLastName(String lastName) { return entityManager.createQuery( “ select u from User u where u.lastName = :lastName”) .setParameter(“lastName”, lastName) .getResultList(); } // ... }
31. Persistence layer testing – test example @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory (persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto (userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals ("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
32. Loading test data - example @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory(persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto(userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }

42. Transaction support - example @DataSet @Transactional(TransactionMode.ROLLBACK) @JpaEntityManagerFactory(persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto(userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
43. JPA integration - example @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory(persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto (userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
51. Only works when persistence provider = hibernate @Test public void testMappingToDatabase() { JpaUnitils.assertMappingWithDatabaseConsistent(); } Found mismatches between Java objects and database tables. Applying DDL statements should resolve the problem: alter table PERSON add column lastName varchar(255); alter table PRODUCT add column barCode varchar(255);
52. Reflection assert - example @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory(persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto(userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals ("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
64. Persistence layer testing - example @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory (persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager; UserDao userDao; @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto (userDao); } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals ("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
65. Base test class with all plumbing @DataSet @JpaEntityManagerFactory (persistenceUnit=“eshop”, configFiles={“persistence-test.xml”}) public class BaseDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @PersistenceContext protected EntityManager entityManager; protected Dao dao = createDao(); @Before public void init() { JpaUnitils.injectEntityManagerInto (dao); } protected abstract DAO createDAO(); }
66. Test without plumbing public class UserDaoTest extends BaseDaoTest { UserDao userDao = new UserDao(); @Override protected Object getTestedObject() { return userDao; } @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = dao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
67. Hibernate support - example @DataSet public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @HibernateSessionFactory(“hibernate-test.cfg.xml”) EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory; UserDao userDao; @Before // Instantiate UserDao and inject EntityManagerFactory @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
68. Spring integration – DAO example import org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.support.HibernateDaoSupport; public class UserDao extends HibernateDaoSupport { // ... public List<User> findByLastName(String lastName) { return (Long) getHibernateTemplate().findByNamedParam( "from User u where u.lastName = :lastName", "user", user).get(0); } // ... }
69. Spring integration – test example @SpringApplicationContext({“eshop-config.xml”, “test-config.xml”}) @DataSet public class UserDaoTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { @SpringBean(“userDao”) UserDao userDao; @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
120. Mock objects support example public class AlertServiceTest extends UnitilsJUnit4 { Mock <Scheduler> mockScheduler; Mock <Messenger> mockMessenger; // Test data setup @Test public void testSendScheduledAlerts() { mockScheduler.returns (alerts).getScheduledAlerts(myUser)); alertService.sendScheduledAlerts(); mockMessenger.assertInvoked() .sendMessage(alert1); mockMessenger.assertInvoked() .sendMessage(alert2); } }
158. Spring integration @ContextConfiguration({“eshop-config.xml”, “test-config.xml”}) @DataSet public class UserDaoTest extends AbstractTransactionalUnitilsJUnit4SpringContextTests { @AutoWired UserDao userDao; @Test public void testFindByLastName() { List<User> users = userDao.findByLastName("Doe"); assertPropertyLenientEquals("userName", Arrays.asList("johnDoe", "janeDoe"), users); } }
