workflow-feature-generator

==============

The sample uses a JSON request to generate/setup a workflow which in turn generates a Cucumber feature file and immediately invoke mvn verify to run the same. The tests combine BDD feature stories with the famous Gherkin syntax and Citrus integration test capabilities.

Build

mvn clean install

The above step will complete with 0 tests

Run

mvn spring:boot run or java -jar target/workflow-feature-generator-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Pre-requisite

In order to test the same, the demo-service jar which must have been installed into your local maven repository using mvn clean install and be running too beforehand.

Swagger url

The service also exposes a Swagger API documentation endpoint at /v2/api-docs. This can also be used to import into Postman as a collection.

http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html

Running the below request under /workflow/add will create a feature file with name as given in "featureName" value and run the scenarios in the feature file.

{
  "featureDescription": "feature description",
  "featureName": "test",
  "scenarioDescription": "scenario description",
  "scenarioSteps": [
    {
      "additionalParams": {},
      "communicationProtocol": "HTTP_REST",
      "contentType": "",
      "context": "string",
      "contextPath": "/test",
      "contextVariables": {},
      "endpointUrl": "http://localhost:8181/",
      "httpMethod": "GET",
      "stepType": "ACTION"
    },
{
      "additionalParams": {},
      "communicationProtocol": "HTTP_REST",
      "contentType": "application/json",
      "context": "string",
      "contextPath": "/test",
      "contextVariables": {},
      "endpointUrl": "http://localhost:8181/",
      "httpStatusCode": 200,
      "responseBody": "string",
      "schemaLocation": "string",
      "stepType": "VALIDATION"
    }
  ]
}

TO-DO (in the order of importance)

• Currently works with dynamic creation of HttpClient, but need to read the endpoint url and bean name/id from properties/cucumber file- TBD
• Separate out generating feature file creation and actual test run
• Email notification on test failure
• Currently works only for HTTP_REST protocol.Implement the same for other communication protocols like JMS,HTTP_SOAP etc.
