For my unit-tests I use a simple test-server based on Jetty:
package eu.kostia.textanalysis.webservices.jetty;
import java.awt.Desktop;
import java.net.URI;
import org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server;
import org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext;
public class TestServer {
static private final String CONTEXT_PATH = "/webservice";
static private final String PROJECT_HOME = System.getenv("MY_WORKSPACE_HOME") + "/WebServices";
static public final int PORT = 8080;
private Server server;
private Exception startException;
private static class SingletonHolder {
private static final TestServer INSTANCE = new TestServer();
}
/**
* Returns the singleton instance of the test server.
*
* @return the singleton instance of the test server.
*/
public static TestServer getInstance() {
return SingletonHolder.INSTANCE;
}
private TestServer() {
server = new Server(PORT);
WebAppContext context = new WebAppContext();
context.setDescriptor(PROJECT_HOME + "/web/WEB-INF/web.xml");
context.setResourceBase(PROJECT_HOME + "/web");
context.setContextPath(CONTEXT_PATH);
context.setParentLoaderPriority(true);
server.setHandler(context);
}
/**
* Start the test server. This method returns only when the server is
* complete started. There is no effect when you invoke this method and the
* server is already running.
*/
public void start() {
if (!server.isRunning()) {
startException = null;
new Thread("TestServer") {
public void run() {
try {
server.start();
server.join();
} catch (Exception exc) {
startException = exc;
}
}
}.start();
while (true) {
if (startException != null) {
throw new Error(startException);
}
// Block this method call until the server is started
if (server.isStarted()) {
return;
}
}
}
}
/**
* Stop the test server.
*/
public void stop() {
try {
if (server.isRunning()) {
server.stop();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new Error(e);
}
}
/**
* Returns {@code true} is the server is running.
*
* @return {@code true} is the server is running.
*/
public boolean isRunning() {
return server.isRunning();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
TestServer.getInstance().start();
Desktop.getDesktop().browse(new URI("http://localhost:8080/webservice/"));
}
}
It works very well for servlet configured in web.xml but I'd now like to use the new annotation syntax introduced by the Servlet Specification 3.0, for example:
@WebServlet(urlPatterns = {"/hello"})
public class HelloServlet extends HttpServlet {
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
writer.print("<h1>HttpServlet using Servlet 3.0</h1>");
}
}
How shoud I configure Jetty in my TestServer class to process also annotation-based servlets?
