Unit test Sling Event Handler

Avatar

Level 4

 

Hi,

I would like to test the "event_filter" path behavior , specific to if allowed path replication event fired then event handler gets executed vs replication event fired on non-allowed path, event handler does not get executed. This question is more of how I test event handler getting executed only on specific path defined by EVENT_FITLER.

 

I appreciate any help!

 

Thanks,

Sri

If I understand the OP correct, they want to test the FILTER_PATH behavior, that the filter is invoked correctly when a matching path is provided; and that the code is not invoked when a non-matching path is provided.

 

Your sample code hardwires that decision; if I change the FILTER_PATH parameter in the production code to something else, the unit test still passes.

Hi @sreedobe 

Here you can check sample setup Generated by ChatGPT

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

To write a JUnit test for the PublicationEventHandler class in AEM, you can use JUnit 4, Mockito, and AEM Mocks provided by the wcm.io AEM Mocks library. Here's a step-by-step guide to set up and write the test:

 

Dependencies

Make sure you have the following dependencies in your pom.xml:

<dependencies>
    <!-- JUnit and Mockito -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>junit</groupId>
        <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
        <version>4.13.2</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
        <artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
        <version>3.11.2</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!-- AEM Mocks -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.wcm.testing.aem-mock</groupId>
        <artifactId>aem-mock-core</artifactId>
        <version>2.8.0</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

 

JUnit Test Class

Here is the JUnit test class for PublicationEventHandler:

import com.day.cq.replication.ReplicationAction;
import com.day.cq.replication.ReplicationActionType;
import io.wcm.testing.mock.aem.junit.AemContext;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.apache.sling.event.jobs.JobManager;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.mockito.Mock;
import org.mockito.MockitoAnnotations;
import org.osgi.service.event.Event;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import static org.mockito.Mockito.*;

public class PublicationEventHandlerTest {

    @Rule
    public final AemContext context = new AemContext();

    @Mock
    private JobManager jobManager;

    private PublicationEventHandler eventHandler;

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        MockitoAnnotations.openMocks(this);
        eventHandler = new PublicationEventHandler();
        context.registerService(JobManager.class, jobManager);
        context.registerInjectActivateService(eventHandler);
    }

    @Test
    public void testHandleEvent() {
        // Prepare mock event
        String path = "/content/siteallowed/test-page";
        Map<String, Object> eventProps = new HashMap<>();
        eventProps.put("path", path);
        Event mockEvent = new Event(ReplicationAction.EVENT_TOPIC, eventProps);

        ReplicationAction mockAction = mock(ReplicationAction.class);
        when(mockAction.getType()).thenReturn(ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE);
        when(mockAction.getPath()).thenReturn(path);

        // Mock static method ReplicationAction.fromEvent
        mockStatic(ReplicationAction.class);
        when(ReplicationAction.fromEvent(mockEvent)).thenReturn(mockAction);

        // Call the handleEvent method
        eventHandler.handleEvent(mockEvent);

        // Verify that jobManager.addJob was called with the correct parameters
        Map<String, Object> jobProps = new HashMap<>();
        jobProps.put("path", path);
        verify(jobManager, times(1)).addJob(PublicationEventHandler.CONTENT_JOB_TOPIC, jobProps);

        // Verify that the static method was called
        verifyStatic(ReplicationAction.class, times(1));
        ReplicationAction.fromEvent(mockEvent);
    }

    @Test
    public void testHandleEvent_NullAction() {
        // Prepare mock event
        Event mockEvent = new Event(ReplicationAction.EVENT_TOPIC, new HashMap<>());

        // Mock static method ReplicationAction.fromEvent to return null
        mockStatic(ReplicationAction.class);
        when(ReplicationAction.fromEvent(mockEvent)).thenReturn(null);

        // Call the handleEvent method
        eventHandler.handleEvent(mockEvent);

        // Verify that jobManager.addJob was not called
        verify(jobManager, times(0)).addJob(anyString(), anyMap());

        // Verify that the static method was called
        verifyStatic(ReplicationAction.class, times(1));
        ReplicationAction.fromEvent(mockEvent);
    }
}

 

Explanation

  1. Dependencies: Ensure you have the required dependencies for JUnit, Mockito, and AEM Mocks.

  2. Test Setup:

    • @Rule: Sets up the AEM context for testing.
    • @Mock: Mocks the JobManager service.
    • setUp(): Initializes the mocks and registers the services and the event handler.
  3. Tests:

    • testHandleEvent(): Tests the handleEvent method for a valid event. It mocks the ReplicationAction.fromEvent method to return a mock ReplicationAction and verifies that jobManager.addJob is called with the correct parameters.
    • testHandleEvent_NullAction(): Tests the handleEvent method for a case where ReplicationAction.fromEvent returns null. It verifies that jobManager.addJob is not called.

Mocking Static Methods

Note that mocking static methods with Mockito requires using the mockito-inline dependency or PowerMockito. In this example, I've used the standard approach. If you need to mock static methods, add the following dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
    <artifactId>mockito-inline</artifactId>
    <version>3.11.2</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

And replace the mockStatic and verifyStatic methods with appropriate usage as per mockito-inline documentation.

This parameter is used by the runtime (OSGI events) to decide if your code is going to be invoked. That means if you want to test that you have the correct parameters provided to the service you have to have a OSGI runtime running. 

That's rather a task for an integration test; unit tests are less suitable, as you would need to startup a OSGI runtime for it. Possible, but I don't know of any unittest framework which does that for you.

 

On the other hand side: Isn't this a functionality of the framework and you are testing that the framework does the right job?
