Question

I’ve created a test-type for selenium types, and now I’d like to use grails.serverURL as the base url for the system under test.

Using ConfigSlurper on Config.groovy doesn’t pick up the environmentally-conditioned grails.serverURL, and ConfigurationHolder.config is null.

How do I access grails.serverURL in unit tests? (Really my custom-test-phase that runs like a unit test)

Answer 1

You need to pass GrailsUtil.environment to the ConfigSlurper constructor.

def config = new ConfigSlurper(GrailsUtil.environment).parse(new File('grails-app/conf/Config.groovy').toURL())
