AssertJ Integration :: Spring Framework (original) (raw)

| | This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest stable version, please use Spring Framework 6.2.8! | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

The AssertJ integration builds on top of plain MockMvc with several differences:

• There is no need to use static imports as both the requests and assertions can be crafted using a fluent API.
• Unresolved exceptions are handled consistently so that your tests do not need to throw (or catch) Exception.
• By default, the result to assert is complete whether the processing is asynchronous or not. In other words, there is no need for special handling for Async requests.

MockMvcTester is the entry point for the AssertJ support. It allows to craft the request and return a result that is AssertJ compatible so that it can be wrapped in a standard assertThat() method.
