Hoverfly Java - Easy Creation of Stub Http Servers for Testing

CircleCI Read the Docs Codecov Maven Central

A Java native language binding for Hoverfly, a Go proxy which allows you to simulate http services in your unit tests. Another term for this is Service Virtualisation.

Features

  • Simulation of http/https services

  • Strict or loose http request matching based on URL, method, body and header combinations

  • Fluent and expressive DSL for easy generation of simulated services

  • Automatic marshalling of objects into JSON during request / response body generation

  • Create simulations by running in capture mode

  • Hoverfly is a proxy, so you don’t need to alter the host that you make requests to

  • Multiple hosts / services per single instance of Hoverfly

  • Https automatically supported, no extra configuration required

  • Interoperable with standard Hoverfly JSON, making it easy to re-use data between Java and other native language bindings.

  • Use externally managed Hoverfly cluster for API simulations

  • Request verification

  • Response templating

  • JUnit 5 extension

Maven Dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.specto</groupId>
    <artifactId>hoverfly-java</artifactId>
    <version>0.9.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Example

Create API simulation using capture mode

// Capture and output HTTP traffic to json file
@ClassRule
public static HoverflyRule hoverflyRule = HoverflyRule.inCaptureMode("simulation.json");


// After the capturing, switch to inSimulationMode to spin up a stub server
@ClassRule
public static HoverflyRule hoverflyRule = HoverflyRule.inSimulationMode(defaultPath("simulation.json"));

// Or you can use both approaches at once. If json file not present in capture mode, if present in simulation mode
@ClassRule
public static HoverflyRule hoverflyRule = HoverflyRule.inCaptureOrSimulationMode("simulation.json");

Create API simulation using DSL

@ClassRule
public static HoverflyRule hoverflyRule = HoverflyRule.inSimulationMode(dsl(
    service("www.my-test.com")
        .get("/api/bookings/1")
        .willReturn(created("http://localhost/api/bookings/1"))
));

@Test
public void shouldBeAbleToGetABookingUsingHoverfly() {
    // When
    final ResponseEntity<String> getBookingResponse = restTemplate.getForEntity("http://www.my-test.com/api/bookings/1", String.class);

    // Then
    assertEquals(bookFlightResponse.getStatusCode(), CREATED);
    assertEquals(bookFlightResponse.getHeaders().getLocation(), "http://localhost/api/bookings/1");
}

Some code examples for the DSL are available here.

More code examples for the DSL using request matchers can be found here.

Verify requests

// Verify that at least one request to a specific endpoint with any query params
hoverflyRule.verify(service(matches("*.flight.*")).get("/api/bookings").anyQueryParams(), atLeastOnce());

// Verify that an external service/dependency was not called
hoverflyRule.verifyZeroRequestTo(service(matches("*.flight.*")));

// Verify all the stubbed requests were made at least once
hoverflyRule.verifyAll();
