Question

I have a Spring JUnit test with configuration files and @ContextConfiguration parameters:

package ru.csbi.registry.domain.envers.integration;

import org.hibernate.Transaction;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.experimental.categories.Category;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner;

import ru.csbi.registry.domain.property.Building;
import ru.csbi.registry.utils.PersistenceManagerHibernate;
import ru.csbi.test.catergory.integration.container.IntegrationTestsRequiringBothSpringIoCContainerAndTestDatabaseCategory;

@Category(IntegrationTestsRequiringBothSpringIoCContainerAndTestDatabaseCategory.class)
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {  "app-config.xml",
                                 "mvc-config.xml",
                                 "aop-config.xml",
                                 "ds-config.xml",
                                 "security-acl-config.xml",
                                 "security-authentication-config.xml" })
//@TransactionConfiguration
//@Transactional
//@ActiveProfiles({"dev", "integration"})
public class RegressionTest {

@Autowired
private PersistenceManagerHibernate persistenceManagerHibernate;

/**
 * Regression test for MR-1088.
 */
@Test
public void test() {
    Building building = createBuildingDetachedObject();
    Transaction transaction = persistenceManagerHibernate.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession().getTransaction();
    transaction.begin();
    persistenceManagerHibernate.save(building);
    transaction.commit();
    Transaction transaction2 = persistenceManagerHibernate.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession().getTransaction();
    transaction2.begin();
    persistenceManagerHibernate.delete(building);
    transaction2.commit();
}

private Building createBuildingDetachedObject() {
    Building building = new Building();
    building.setId(1L);
    return building;
}
}

Configuration files use properties from *.properties files:

    class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
    <!-- one of the properties available; the maximum file size in bytes -->
    <property name="maxUploadSize" value="${upload.maxsize}" />
</bean>

and test execution fails with errors:

How to pass parameter upload.maxsize to properties files?

Answer 1

You are using a PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, which will replace properties it finds in system properties or URLs matching file:/${CSBI_INTEGRATION_TEST}/*.properties. This gives you a couple of options:

1. Run your test with -Dupload.maxsize=[value here]
2. Ensure that a properties file in the ${CSBI_INTEGRATION_TEST} directory contains a line upload.maxsize=[value here]

This file URL looks a bit quirky though- why the single leading / before ${CSBI_INTEGRATION_TEST}?
