Enhanced WicketTester

Description

The WicketTester is a helper class to ease unit testing of wicket component and pages. There is no need for a servlet container, because it uses a mocked servlet context and a mocked wicket application. In the following it is possible to test the rendered page and the contained components. This is mostly done by selecting components with their wicket path as string. As you can image this is a common error on refactoring components on pages which results in changed wicket paths.

The following example shows how the WicketTester renders a test page and asserts that a bookmarkable link is present to that page.

//given
final WicketTester tester = new WicketTester();
tester.startPage(new TestPage());

//when
final Component link = tester.getComponentFromLastRenderedPage("some:wicket:path");

//then
assertThat(link, is(not(nullValue())));

Now this example can be rewritten selecting the component using the component matchers. The Enhanced WicketTester uses a component matcher construct for several functions you are already used to call with a wicket-path.

//given
final EnhancedWicketTester tester = new EnhancedWicketTester();
tester.startPage(new TestPage());

//when
final BookmarkablePageLink<?> link = tester.getChildMatching(
    ComponentMatchers.type(BookmarkablePageLink.class));

//then
assertThat(link, is(not(nullValue())));

Features

select components without the need of the wicket path
base wickettester functionality using component matchers

Usage

Selectors for components can be formed using the ComponentMatcherBuilder which uses a builder pattern:

ComponentMatchers.type(BookmarkablePageLink.class).wicketId("link").visible();

Selectors can be combined together:

ComponentMatchers.type(BookmarkablePageLink.class).wicketId("link").visible()
    .havingChild(ComponentMatchers.type(BookmarkablePageLink.class));

Selectors

In the following you will find a list of all selectors possible:

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> type(final Class<T> componentClass)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> wicketId(final String wicketId)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> visible()

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> enabled()

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> type(final Class<T> componentClass)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> not(final ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> builder)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> modelObject(final Object modelObject)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> havingChild(final ComponentMatcherBuilder<MT> builder)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> havingDirectChild(final ComponentMatcherBuilder<MT> builder)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> havingSibling(final ComponentMatcherBuilder<MT> builder)

ComponentMatcherBuilder<T> havingDirectParent(final ComponentMatcherBuilder<MT> builder)
