{"slug":"ref-docker-44b418cdd49b01d3f223","title":"Testing REST API integrations using WireMock — Test using WireMock JUnit 5 extension","summary":"WireMock provides a JUnit 5 extension that starts an in-process WireMock server.","content":"Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions).\n\nWireMock provides a JUnit 5 extension that starts an in-process WireMock server. You can configure stub responses using the WireMock Java API.\n\nCreate AlbumControllerTest.java\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```java\npackage com.testcontainers.demo;\n\nimport static com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.client.WireMock.aResponse;\nimport static com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.client.WireMock.urlMatching;\nimport static com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.core.WireMockConfiguration.wireMockConfig;\nimport static io.restassured.RestAssured.given;\nimport static org.hamcrest.CoreMatchers.is;\nimport static org.hamcrest.Matchers.hasSize;\nimport static org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT;\n\nimport com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.client.WireMock;\nimport com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.junit5.WireMockExtension;\nimport io.restassured.RestAssured;\nimport io.restassured.http.ContentType;\nimport org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeEach;\nimport org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;\nimport org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.RegisterExtension;\nimport org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;\nimpor\n```\n\nHere's what the test does\n\n@SpringBootTest starts the full application on a random port. @RegisterExtension creates a WireMockExtension that starts WireMock on a dynamic port. @DynamicPropertySource overrides photos.api.base-url to point at the WireMock endpoint, so the application talks to WireMock instead of the real photo service. shouldGetAlbumById() configures a stub response for /albums/{albumId}/photos, sends a request to the application's /api/albums/{albumId} endpoint, and verifies the response body. shouldReturnServerErrorWhenPhotoServiceCallFailed() configures WireMock to return a 500 status and verifies that the application propagates that status to the caller.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
