Unite test failing - for com.day.commons.httpclient

[ashishkhadpe]

Hi All,

We have upgraded our AEM version from 6.2 to 6.5.6. While updating our codebase we observed that our unit test cases are failing for com.day.commons.httpclient class showing below error : 

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/day/commons/httpclient/impl/ProxyWrapper

at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpState.<init>(HttpState.java:114)
at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient.<init>(HttpClient.java:183)
at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient.<init>(HttpClient.java:97)

Unite test code looks like below : 

@Test
public void provideHttpClient_singleton() {

    Injector injector = Guice.createInjector(peaberryRssClientModule);

    HttpClient httpClientA = injector.getInstance(HttpClient.class);
    HttpClient httpClientB = injector.getInstance(HttpClient.class);

    assertEquals(httpClientA, httpClientB);

}

I assume that Uber 6.5 jar provide httpclient version of 4.5.2 and due to which it it giving error for HttpState(which is deprecated list of AEM 6.5). Any quick solution to fix this?

It is better to rewrite http client code to newer version of apache.http(4.x).

How about your regular class functionality?

Hi Suresh, Thank you for your comment. My regular classes looks to be working fine with import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient. It is just an issue with my unit test cases which are failing currently.

If the issue only with Unit tests, can't you ignore for this class?, if not, the only option is to update the depricated classes

[ashishkhadpe]

Hi Suresh, for now we have added the Ignore annotation only but we would be happy to fix this. Issue is I am not sure why it is only breaking in unit test only. Also we are hesitant to modify any regular code just to fix unit test.
