How to start the async and get the result at the same time?

[Durim Kryeziu]

Hi guys,

I want to use REST Assured library instead of MockMvc api, but I have a problem:

The return type of the rest controller method on my spring app is 

Observable<MyObject>

so when I do like this:

given()
  .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8_VALUE)
  .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8_VALUE)
  .body(myContent())

  .when()
  .async()
  .post(BASE_URI)

  .then()
  .apply(print())
  .body("id", equalTo("foo"))
  .expect(status().isOk());

the test passes but I got this in the console:

```Async:

    Async started = false```

On the other hand, when I remove the .async() from the method chain, the Async started = true but the test fails because of the result ?

Is it possible to have the the Async started = true and test the http status code the result as well ?

Thans in advance

Hi, 

Unfortunately I'm not sure how to solve it. Do you know how to solve it using vanilla MockMvc? If so maybe that would provide some hints.

Hi Johan,

Thank you for your response!

Here you have the code with vanilla MockMvc and its output:

MvcResult result = this.mockMvc

      .perform(

        post(BASE_URI)

          .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8)

          .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8)

          .content(myContent())

      )

      .andDo(print())

      .andExpect(status().isOk()) // this is the status code of the MockHttpServletResponse

      .andReturn();

    this.mockMvc.perform(asyncDispatch(result))

      .andExpect(status().isOk()) // this is the status code of the Async

      .andExpect(jsonPath("$.id").value("foo"));

Output:

MockHttpServletRequest:
      HTTP Method = POST
      Request URI = /api/my/uri
       Parameters = {}
          Headers = {Accept=[application/json;charset=UTF-8], Content-Type=[application/json;charset=UTF-8]}


Handler:
             Type = com.my.Controller
           Method = public rx.Observable<com.my.AggregateId> com.my.Controller.create(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,com.my.Dto)


Async:
    Async started = true
     Async result = AggregateId(id=foo)


Resolved Exception:
             Type = null


ModelAndView:
        View name = null
             View = null
            Model = null


FlashMap:
       Attributes = null


MockHttpServletResponse:
           Status = 200
    Error message = null
          Headers = {}
     Content type = null
             Body =
    Forwarded URL = null
   Redirected URL = null
          Cookies = []

I also asked the same question in the Stackoverflow days before as well:
