JUnit5 Integration Test Setup with Extensions

In this repository we demonstrate how to use JUnit 5 extensions for test setup in integration tests. We show how to use a PropertyResolver to inject parameters into test methods and also how to use a lifecycle callback to do the setup.

This repo was created for a blog article published here Conciso Wissensbeiträge (GER).

Example context

The context of this application is a simple webshop written in Java using Spring Boot. It comes with an endpoint to manage a shopping cart. It uses a relational database for persistence and Keycloak for authentication.

For this application we want to create integration tests using TestContainers and JUnit 5 extensions.

Integration test setup

As we'd like to use JUnit 5 extensions for integration test setup, we do not focus on the particular test, but on its setup.

We show how to use JUnit 5 ParameterResolver for the test setup in the package de.conciso.junit5extensionsforintegrationtests.parameterresolver, how to use a parameterized ParameterResolver in the package de.conciso.junit5extensionsforintegrationtests.parameterresolverwithparams and how to use JUnit lifecycle callbacks in the package de.conciso.junit5extensionsforintegrationtests.lifecyclehooks.

How to execute tests

In order to run this project you're required to have a Docker environment installed on your system.

To run the tests in this project execute ./mvnw test.
