Camel Springboot Test Utils

This projects supplies a small library making testing of Apache Camel components easier.

Installation and requirements

Minimal tested version:

• Apache Camel 2.20.1
• Springboot 1.5.8-RELEASE

Put the following dependency to your Maven POM file:

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.toolisticon.camel</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-spring-boot-test-rule</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.3</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Features

Test rule

There is a lot written about Camel Spring Testing, but all approaches are based on inheritance (SpringTestSupport) or using a special runner (CamelSpringBootRunner). There are good reasons for doing so, but if you are not able to do so, for example using a different runner , you may use the supplied JUnit test rule for this:

...
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.rules.CamelSpringClassRule;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.rules.SpringMethodRule;


@SpringBootTest
public class SimpleRuleTest {

    @ClassRule
    public static final CamelSpringClassRule springClassRule = new CamelSpringClassRule();

    @Rule
    public final SpringMethodRule springMethodRule = new SpringMethodRule();

    @Autowired
    private CamelContext camelContext;

    @Test
    @DirtiesContext
    public void testMe() throws Exception {
      // do something with camelContext here
    }
} 

ExcludeRoutes

There is a standard annotation in Camel-Spring to exclude routes org.apache.camel.test.spring.ExcludeRoutes. This is not working using a standard Springboot test. If you use this library, the support is restored. Just annotate the org.apache.camel.test.spring.ExcludeRoutes to your test class containing the CamelSpringClassRule and list the excluded route classes.
