Testing

caution

Testing API should not be considered stable at the moment.

Additional components need to be tested before they can be used by the users. Nussknacker provides toolkit for building scenarios and executing them in tests. There are two main dependencies you can add in scope test

  • nussknacker-flink-components-testkit
  • nussknacker-lite-components-testkit

These modules will provide you with specific executor and test components building blocks as well as with Scalatest and utilities.

Testing Nussknacker Components​

Creating test scenario​

There is a ScenarioBuilder which gives developer DSL-like mechanism for building scenarios. At first, you choose type of the scenario from:

  • streaming
  • streamingLite
  • requestResponse

Next you specify scenario itself. Every scenario need at least one source followed by filters, enrichers etc. and end with either sink or processor end.

val scenario = 
  ScenarioBuilder
    .streaming("openapi-test")
    .parallelism(1)
    .source("start", "source")
    .enricher("customer", "customer", "getCustomer", ("customer_id", "#input"))
    .processorEnd("end", "invocationCollector", "value" -> "#customer")

Creating test scenario runner​

Scenario should be executed inside a runner. NuTestScenarioRunner gives you another DLS for building runners. At first, you chose type of the scenario from:

  • flink - only one right now
 val testScenarioRunner = NuTestScenarioRunner
      .flinkBased(config, flinkMiniCluster)
      .build()
caution

For flink runner test must extend FlinkSpec for now.

Injecting custom and mocked components​

You can inject list of your own or mocked components with .withExtraComponents method on NuTestScenarioRunner to be passed to engine model data. Each component should match ComponentDefinition. It means that ComponentDefinition passed via .withExtraComponents overrides the one which could be already defined in modelData for given name. Example:

val stubbedGetCustomerOpenApiService: SwaggerEnricher = new SwaggerEnricher(Some(new URL(rootUrl(port))), services.head, Map.empty, stubbedBackedProvider)
val mockComponents = List(ComponentDefinition("getCustomer", stubbedGetCustomerOpenApiService))
val testScenarioRunner = NuTestScenarioRunner
      .flinkBased(resolvedConfig, flinkMiniCluster)
      .withExtraComponents(mockComponents)
      .build()

Running scenario with data​

Scenario can be run with data via .runWithData method. This call synchronously executes scenario inside runner with data being passed to input source.

testScenarioRunner.runWithData(scenario, List(1, 3, 5))

Retrieving results​

Results of the scenario invocation can be get with results()

testScenarioRunner.results().size shouldBe 6
testScenarioRunner.results().toSet shouldBe Set(5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40)

Auto provided test components​

Test toolkit automatically gives you few test components you could see above.

  • source - it can be used to provide data for the scenario
  • invocationCollector - you can use it to verify scenario behaviour
