I am writing a Spring based Test case for my Spring Controller, in my controller we are using like this "request.getSession().getServletContext().getRealPath("/myFolderName");" Its working fine for normal requests, but for unit test cases like MockHttpServletRequest it is the above method call is giving null. how can i get realPath for MockHttpServletRequest.

Thanks, Praneeth.

  • Split the statement up into several smaller ones so you can see which part is causing the NPE. Or use a debugger. – skaffman Apr 23 '12 at 09:46

By default MockHttpServletRequest acts as if root webapp folder is a classpath, therefore you should be able to use getRealPath() for classpath resources.

Alternatively, you can supply MockHttpServletRequest with MockServletContext, and MockServletContext can be configured with specific root folder for getRealPath(), etc.
