Mockito test with Spring Controller Null Pointer Exception

Time：12-04

My project is using Spring and I wanted to test with Mockito but I have a NullPointerException that I can't solve... Isn't MockBean supposed to inject in my TeacherService ? I have tried to put @Autowired in front of MockMvc but it's worse...

I want to test my Controller by adding a new Teacher :

This is my test :

@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)
@ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@AutoConfigureMockMvc

public class TeacherControllerMockTest {
private MockMvc mvc;

@InjectMocks
private TeacherForm teacherForm;

@MockBean
private TeacherService teacherService;


@Captor
ArgumentCaptor<Teacher> teacherCaptor;



@Test
void addTeacherPostNonExistingTeacher() throws Exception {


   when(teacherService.findById(teacherForm.getId())).thenReturn(null);
   //il y aura un teacherService.saveTeacher(t) : mais par defaut ça ne le fera pas

    this.mvc.perform(post("/addTeacher")
                    .param("firstName", "Anne-Marie")
                    .param("lastName", "Kermarrec")
            )
            .andExpect(status().is3xxRedirection())
            .andReturn();

    //teacherController.addTeacher(teacherForm);


    verify(teacherService, atLeastOnce()).saveTeacher(teacherCaptor.capture());
    Teacher capturedTeacher = teacherCaptor.getValue();
    assertEquals("Kermarrec", capturedTeacher.getLastName());

}

This is my Controller :

@PostMapping(value = { "/addTeacher"})
    public String addTeacher(@ModelAttribute("TeacherForm") TeacherForm teacherForm) {
        Teacher t;
        if(teacherService.findById(teacherForm.getId()).isPresent()){
            // teacher already existing : update
            t = teacherService.findById(teacherForm.getId()).get();
            t.setFirstName(teacherForm.getFirstName());
            t.setLastName(teacherForm.getLastName());
        } else {
            // teacher not existing : create
            t=new Teacher(teacherForm.getFirstName(), teacherForm.getLastName(), terManagerService.getTERManager());
        }
        teacherService.saveTeacher(t);
        return "redirect:/listTeachers";

    }

And the error :

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "org.springframework.test.web.servlet.MockMvc.perform(org.springframework.test.web.servlet.RequestBuilder)" because "this.mvc" is null

EDIT : After @Begging and @Alien suggestion, I have tried :

@Autowired
private MockMvc mvc; 

 @BeforeEach
    public void init() {
        this.mvc = MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup(new TeacherController()).build();

    }

But I got a another error

Thank you !

CodePudding user response：

You need to initialize the MockMvc instance in your test class, so please try this:

@BeforeEach
public void setup() {
    this.mvc = MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup(new TeacherController()).build();
}

CodePudding user response：

2 things here.

Use @Autowired on MockMvc.

@Autowired
private MockMvc mvc;

And then use @Before like below to initialize it using desired implementation.

@Before
public void init() throws Exception {
        mvc = MockMvcBuilders.XXX;
}
