Grails Integration Test Downloads

Question

I am trying to insert some test data into my database for which the BootStrapTest class works.

In my BootStrap.groovy file it was named like this

 environments { test { println "Test environment" println "Executing BootStrapTest" new BootStrapTest().init() println "Finished BootStrapTest" } } 

However, when I run my integration tests, this code does not execute. I read that integration tests should load, so I'm pretty confused.

I saw some invasive solutions, such as modifying the TestApp.groovy script , but I would suggest that there is a way through conf for this. Also read this SO question and this one as well , but he did not quite understand.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, I have a lot of problems with testing Grails. If it brings something to the table, im uses Intelli JIdea as the IDE.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance

All bootstrap code must be called from closure Init. Therefore this version should work:

 import grails.util.Environment class BootStrap { def init = { servletContext -> // init app if (Environment.current == Environment.TEST) { println "Test environment" println "Executing BootStrapTest" new BootStrapTest().init() println "Finished BootStrapTest" } } def destroy = { // destroy app } } 

In addition, you may have a separate bootstrap file for inserting test data, rather than calling BootStrapTest.init (). Any class in the grails-app / conf folder called * BootStrap.groovy (for example, TestBootStrap.groovy) starts at the bootstrap stage. See http://www.grails.org/Bootstrap+Classes

From 2.0 documentation :

Migrating to Wednesday

Its often advisable to run code when your application starts based on the environment. To do this, you can use the grails-app / conf / BootStrap.groovy file support to execute for each environment:

 def init = { ServletContext ctx -> environments { production { ctx.setAttribute("env", "prod") } development { ctx.setAttribute("env", "dev") } } ctx.setAttribute("foo", "bar") }

in BootStrap.groovy you can try something like this

 if (!grails.util.GrailsUtil.environment.contains('test')) { log.info "In test env" println "Test environment" println "Executing BootStrapTest" new BootStrapTest().init() println "Finished BootStrapTest" } else { log.info "not in test env" }

this works for me on 1.3.4:

  def init = { servletContext -> println 'bootstrap' switch (GrailsUtil.environment) { case "test": println 'test' Person p=new Person(name:'made in bootstrap') assert p.save(); break } } def destroy = { } } 

This integration test passes:

 @Test void testBootStrapDataGotLoaded() { assertNotNull Person.findByName('made in bootstrap') }
