I'm using joinfaces v3 from some time. But I'm experiencing problems regarding tests about the viewScoped beans.

In the documentation I saw that the equivalent spring scope of ViewScoped annotation is configured automatically by Jsf Spring Boot Starter

But when I try to test a @Component with one of the following annotations @Scope("view") @ViewScoped

I always get a nullPointer on the class org.joinfaces.autoconfigure.integration.ViewScope in the following line

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewMap()

because FacesContext.getCurrentInstance is null

Do we have an example on how to test this kind of beans with joinfaces? Thank you

  • So you can test something like this when not using joinfaces? – Kukeltje Feb 15 '18 at 09:08
  • Yes. I'm switching from a java maven project to spring boot in order to use some features that comes easily with spring boot. And I've a lot of tests that involve classes with the Scope "view". – Gavi Feb 15 '18 at 18:31
  • FYI: spring boot is Java too. And SpringBoot and Maven serve two different purposes. Adding SpringBoot as a tag and making more clear what and how you test is the best way forward – Kukeltje Feb 15 '18 at 18:47

On The Joinfaces documentation there's an example on how to test some jsf bean. Maybe is useful for someone

JoinFaces Bean Test library is probably what you are looking for. See discussion here.

Another possibility is using joinfaces test mock classes.
