Test Actions

General

NOTES: action specific language injections can be found in the language injections document.

Mandatory builder class calls

Certain action Builder classes have properties that if are unset, i.e. no Builder method is called to set that property, the action would not execute. This inspection can recognize such calls.

It can report both individual missing calls, and multiple calls if two or more are required to be missing to cause the action execution to fail.

The following are analyzed:

• Missing message() in EchoAction.Builder.echo()/print() chains.
• Missing filePath() in LoadPropertiesAction.Builder.load() chains.
• Missing endpoint() in ReceiveTimeoutAction.Builder.expectTimeout() chains.
• Missing when() in Conditional.Builder.conditional() chains.
• Missing condition() in Wait.Builder.waitFor() chains.
• Missing pair of source() and sourceFile(), or missing pair of xslt() and xsltFile() in TransformAction.Builder.transform() chains.

Java and Groovy DSLs are supported.

InputAction

InputAction.Builder#answers with no answer specified

The InputAction.Builder#answers() method requires at least one argument to be specified, otherwise it throws an exception. Thus, this inspection reports such calls.

Java and Groovy DSLs are supported.

JavaAction

Class references for java(String) and className(String)

To make the navigation to specified classes easier, fully qualified classnames in java(String) and className(String) have class references attached, so that Ctrl+click and similar actions can be used on them.

Java and Groovy DSLs are supported.

Assert

Throwable class reference for exception(String)

The

• method Action.Builder#exception(String) in Java and Groovy test files,
• and the actions.assert.exception property value in YAML test files

accept fully qualified names of java.lang.Throwable implementations.

In order to make the work with these String arguments simpler, a reference is attached to them, so that it is easier to navigate to the referenced class when needed, with Ctrl+click.

Exception validation

These inspections report if the fully qualified name specified is not an implementation of java.lang.Throwable in:

• Java and Groovy DSLs: Assert.Builder.exception(String)
• YAML DSL: actions.assert.exception property value
• XML and Spring XML DSLs: <assert exception="..."> attribute value
