Method Detail

• BeanRegistrar beanRegistrar()

  Registers beans in the test application context, the way an application's or a plugin's beanRegistrar() does at boot and at the same point: after doWithSpring(), so a registrar bean wins a name conflict with the deprecated DSL.

  Returns:

  the registrar, or null (the default) to register nothing

  Since:

  8.0

• void cleanupGrailsApplication()

• void defineBeans(Closure closure)

• void defineBeans(BeanRegistrar registrar)

  Applies a BeanRegistrar to the test application context, the same way a plugin's beanRegistrar() hook is applied by the framework at boot time.

• void defineBeans(java.lang.Object plugin)

  Applies a plugin's doWithSpring() and beanRegistrar() to the test application context. A plugin's beans block is not among them: it compiles to an auto-configuration, which is registered before the context refreshes - include the plugin through getIncludePlugins() for that.

• Closure doWithConfig()

• @java.lang.Deprecated(since: 8.0)
  Closure doWithSpring()

  Beans for the test application context in the bean builder DSL.

  deprecated:

  since 8.0, as doWithSpring() is on plugins and applications, in favour of a beans block, beanRegistrar() or a configuration class (see getConfigurationClasses()). The DSL keeps working but receives no fixes for new issues.

• ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext()

  Returns:

  grailsApplication.mainContext

• Config getConfig()

  Returns:

  grailsApplication.config

• java.util.Set<java.lang.Class<?>> getConfigurationClasses()

  Configuration classes for the test application context. They are registered ahead of the framework's auto-configurations, as an application's own configuration is, so an auto-configuration's @ConditionalOnMissingBean backs off from the beans they declare.

  By default, the static nested classes of the test, and of any test it extends, annotated @Configuration directly or through another annotation such as @AutoConfiguration - the convention Spring's own test support follows. A test's beans block compiles into one of them, BeansConfiguration. Override to register other classes instead.

  Since:

  8.0

• GrailsApplication getGrailsApplication()

  Returns:

  The GrailsApplication instance

• java.util.Set<java.lang.String> getIncludePlugins()

• boolean getLocalOverride()

• MessageSource getMessageSource()

  Returns:

  the MessageSource bean from the application context

• java.lang.Object getOptionalServletContext()

  Returns:

  the servlet context

• boolean loadExternalBeans()
