DaggerMock
A JUnit rule to easily override Dagger 2 objects
Override an object managed by Dagger 2 is not easy, you need to define a TestModule and, if you want to inject your test object, a TestComponent.
Using a DaggerMockRule
it's possible to override easily the objects defined in a Dagger module:
public class MainServiceTest {
@Rule public DaggerMockRule<MyComponent> mockitoRule = new DaggerMockRule<>(MyComponent.class, new MyModule())
.set(new DaggerMockRule.ComponentSetter<MyComponent>() {
@Override public void setComponent(MyComponent component) {
mainService = component.mainService();
}
});
@Mock RestService restService;
@Mock MyPrinter myPrinter;
MainService mainService;
@Test
public void testDoSomething() {
when(restService.doSomething()).thenReturn("abc");
mainService.doSomething();
verify(myPrinter).print("ABC");
}
}
In this example
MyModule
contains three methods to provide RestService
, MyPrinter
and MainService
objects.
The DaggerMockRule
rule dynamically creates a new module that override MyModule
, it returns the mocks
for restService
and myPrinter
defined in the test instead of the real objects.
Espresso support
A DaggerMockRule
can also be used in an Espresso test:
public class MainActivityTest {
@Rule public DaggerMockRule<MyComponent> daggerRule = new DaggerMockRule<>(MyComponent.class, new MyModule())
.set(new DaggerMockRule.ComponentSetter<MyComponent>() {
@Override public void setComponent(MyComponent component) {
App app = (App) InstrumentationRegistry.getInstrumentation().getTargetContext().getApplicationContext();
app.setComponent(component);
}
});
@Rule public ActivityTestRule<MainActivity> activityRule = new ActivityTestRule<>(MainActivity.class, false, false);
@Mock RestService restService;
@Mock MyPrinter myPrinter;
@Test
public void testCreateActivity() {
when(restService.doSomething()).thenReturn("abc");
activityRule.launchActivity(null);
verify(myPrinter).print("ABC");
}
}
Robolectric support
In a similar way a DaggerMockRule
can be used in a Robolectric test:
@RunWith(RobolectricGradleTestRunner.class)
@Config(constants = BuildConfig.class, sdk = 21)
public class MainActivityTest {
@Rule public final DaggerMockRule<MyComponent> mockitoRule = new DaggerMockRule<>(MyComponent.class, new MyModule())
.set(new DaggerMockRule.ComponentSetter<MyComponent>() {
@Override public void setComponent(MyComponent component) {
((App) RuntimeEnvironment.application).setComponent(component);
}
});
@Mock RestService restService;
@Mock MyPrinter myPrinter;
@Test
public void testCreateActivity() {
when(restService.doSomething()).thenReturn("abc");
Robolectric.setupActivity(MainActivity.class);
verify(myPrinter).print("ABC");
}
}
Custom rules
It's easy to create a DaggerMockRule
subclass to avoid copy and paste and simplify the test code:
public class MyRule extends DaggerMockRule<MyComponent> {
public MyRule() {
super(MyComponent.class, new MyModule());
set(new DaggerMockRule.ComponentSetter<MyComponent>() {
@Override public void setComponent(MyComponent component) {
App app = (App) InstrumentationRegistry.getInstrumentation().getTargetContext().getApplicationContext();
app.setComponent(component);
}
});
}
}
The final test uses the rule subclass:
public class MainActivityTest {
@Rule public MyRule daggerRule = new MyRule();
@Rule public ActivityTestRule<MainActivity> activityRule = new ActivityTestRule<>(MainActivity.class, false, false);
@Mock RestService restService;
@Mock MyPrinter myPrinter;
@Test
public void testCreateActivity() {
when(restService.doSomething()).thenReturn("abc");
activityRule.launchActivity(null);
verify(myPrinter).print("ABC");
}
}
JitPack configuration
DaggerMock is available on JitPack, add the JitPack repository in your build.gradle (in top level dir):
repositories {
jcenter()
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
and the dependency in the build.gradle of the module:
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.fabioCollini:DaggerMock:0.4'
}
