Gradle configuration for Junit 5 with spring boot 2:

To add the needed Junit 5 dependencies , here what you need to add , whole code sample is on GitHub :


dependencies {
compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter'
testImplementation('org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.2.0')
testCompile('org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-params:5.2.0')
testRuntime('org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:5.2.0')

How to define and execute unit test with Junit 5 and mockito 2:

To run Junit 5 test case with Mockito2 , we use Juipter extensions support and here we will use mockito extension , the purpose of Junit 5 extensions is to extend the behavior of test classes or methods, and these can be reused for multiple tests.


@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)
@DisplayName("Spring boot 2 mockito2 Junit5 example")
public class ShowServiceTests {
private static final String MOCK_OUTPUT = "Mocked show label";
@Mock
private TextService textService;
@InjectMocks
private ShowService showService;
@BeforeEach
void setMockOutput() {
when(textService.getText()).thenReturn(MOCK_OUTPUT);
}
@Test
@DisplayName("Mock the output of the text service using mockito")
public void contextLoads() {
assertEquals(showService.getShowLable(), MOCK_OUTPUT);
}
}

How to define and execute spring boot integration test with Junit 5:

Now if we want to call the real service not  the mocked one for integration test with Junit 5 , we will use spring extension to support that and now your integration test is running with Junit 5 support as well.


@ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@SpringBootTest
public class SpringBootJunit5IntegrationTest {
@Autowired
private ShowService showService;
@Test
@DisplayName("Integration test which will get the actual output of text service")
public void contextLoads() {
assertEquals(showService.getShowLable(), ORIGINAL_OUTPUT);
}
}
