Add support for spring-boot @IntegrationTest in spring module

[yukatan]

Sometimes you need to run test agains the server running and not to use mockMcv or something similar. At the moment there is not support for this annotation and run the spring boot application is really a headache. Where are at the moment running the spring boot application with a hook, but it would be easier to support this annotation to test spring boot applications with cucumber.

As well as supporting Boot's org.springframework.boot.test.SpringApplicationConfiguration as alternative to ContextConfiguration.

I was working on PR but I'm unable to make a successfull build. The cucumber-jruby module fails when building.

Anyway I was hoping changing SpringFactory's dependsOnSpringContext should help:

    private boolean dependsOnSpringContext(Class<?> type) {
        Class springApplicationConfigurationClass = null;
        try {
            // support for Spring Boot SpringApplicationConfiguration
            springApplicationConfigurationClass = Class.forName("org.springframework.boot.test.SpringApplicationConfiguration");
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
            // ignore
        }
        return type.isAnnotationPresent(ContextConfiguration.class)
            || type.isAnnotationPresent(ContextHierarchy.class)
            || (springApplicationConfigurationClass != null && type.isAnnotationPresent(springApplicationConfigurationClass));
    }

But as I can't build I cannot verify currently.

As Spring Boot is gaining a lot of traction I think it's important providing Boot support in the cucumber-spring module.

I was wondering what progress had been made with supporting @IntegerationTest. I am currently working on a project that would greatly benefit from using Cucumber; however, this is a stumbling block for the team.

Until it is added, you can use this solution on stackoverflow

Hi, I tried using this solution referred to on stackoverflow but I couldn't get it to work, is there any update on the progress? Thanks.

Actually all that is needed is to add support for @BootstrapWith annotation in the SpringFactory, that will automatically support the newly added Spring Boot @SpringBootTest annotation and all the sliced tests like @WebMvcTest, etc.

See #1061

Superceded by #1061.
