GWTTest case mapping URI to file for testing

[Raphael André Bauer]

Hi folks,

I want to write a GWTTestcase that fetches a file "from the server".
My setup is maven + headless htmlunit for integration testing (target
integration-test).

Say I got a json file (named "test.json" I want to read from the
server in directory root. Where do I have to put my json file in my
"test" setup so that a GET at /test.json returns that file?

I always get a Error 404 NOT_FOUND from my jetty in the testcase.

Thanks,

Raphael

have you registered a servlet in your GWT module?

<servlet class="yourServletClass" path="/test.json"/>

okay I solved it...

I had to put it into the public directory inside the test case package...

thanks for that hint...

However - are you sure it still works?

http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideOrganizingProjects.html#DevGuideModuleXml
says:

<servlet path="url-path" class="classname" /> : For RPC, this element
loads a servlet class mounted at the specified URL path. The URL path
should be absolute and have the form of a directory (for example,
/calendar). Your client code then specifies this URL mapping by
annotating the service interface with the @RemoteServiceRelativePath
attribute. Any number of servlets may be loaded in this manner,
including those from inherited modules.
The <servlet> element applies only to GWT's embedded server
server-side debugging feature.
NOTE: as of GWT 1.6, this tag does no longer loads servlets in
development mode, instead you must configure a WEB-INF/web.xml in your
war directory to load any servlets needed.

Thanks,

Hi ep,

you were totally right. I was confused with web.xml and the servlets
defined in the gwt.xml module. The other confusion came from the way
the servlet mapping is made.

a

<servlet class="yourServletClass" path="/test.json"/>

translates to a
GWT.getModuleBaseURL() + /test.json
in the client module.

apart from that it works fine :)

Thanks for the hint!

Cheers,

Raphael
