Question

I have a own defined annotation (@BasicAuth) that I use for adding BasicAuth to a method.

Like this:

public class TokenController extends BaseController {
  @BasicAuth
  public static Result create() {
   ....
  }
}

It works like a charm but when I’m testing the create method I would like to switch off (or mock) the protection. Is that possible?

Answer 1

Just create the TokenController using new TokenController() and call create(). The annotation will be ignored because you’re creating it outside the framework.
