    Copy code
    @WebMvcTest
@ExtendWith(SpringExtension::class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
class HttpApiTests(@Autowired val mockMvc: MockMvc, @Autowired val restTemplate : TestRestTemplate) { ... }

    I tried to add a configuration context with 
    (Application::class)
    , but Kotlin expects a different type, so I'm just kind of at a blocker here. I'm starting with the Mockito example from Spring-Boot guide, but I assume something has been updated since that. I'm reviewing Mockito Kotlin documentation now, but may need to dig into Mockito itself to try and figure out what about the class setup is failing.

    Yow, and Spring Boot is supposed to be simpler, or so I thought…

    I avoid both Mockito and Spring, so I haven’t any specific knowledge, just one random though — Java things typically want a Java 
    Class
    , not a Kotlin 
    KClass
    , so 
    Application::class.java
    may be what you want.

    tried that too - it then tells me it expects a different type:▾

    yikes, I have a better idea of what's going on. So in my main class, this was something weird that I noted but wasn't sure if it was going to be an issue later on - the main class in my application class wanted me to place it outside the class itself

    Hm. I haven’t really played with interop vis-a-vis kotlin nested classes; there may well be dragons there

    If you select all and invoke the “convert spring boot to ktor” inspection, does that avoid the issue by simply not requiring such complex test setup? 😛

    Indeed. I was wondering if anyone here was experiencing similar issues

    I have not tried using ktor yet, let me see what incorporating that will do

    hahaha, so I've come to find out. I was hoping to keep it as pure as possible but I'm finding that to be nearly impossible. I'm not a huge fan of spring myself, although it really has its merits for security and is a standard still

    I’ve used it on a few projects. You can succeed with it, but you can succeed with assembly as well… I don’t use it on projects I start, let’s just say.

    thanks! I'll see what I come up with. I made my spring tutorial ambitious this week, but I'm afraid I'll have to push it back a week anyhow with my personal schedule being thrown out the window.

    Mockito with the Kotlin wrapper is buggy itself as well. Plenty of work to be done there. I actually caught an issue with the library in the middle of an interview in similar circumstances

    Amandam dont bother with the mockito wrapper.. its garbage. I wish the author just put a big DEPRECATED warning on the github readme. Look into Mockk. It's a great mocking framework, way better than mockito and is actually made for kotlin 🙂

    Or even better, try making a layer over the framwork that isn't as dependant on it, and just inject the minimum amount of mocks you can

    That's what I did for Vert.x, so the request is just delegated to the actual business logic with the function params, and response is repepresented by a sealed class that is converted to vert.x response back on the vert.x layer.

    It makes for much simpler testing, and I could always switch from vert.x to any other system relatively easier

    You just need the most testing on behavior, not whether the actual framework works...

    That sounds reasonable but I'm trying to keep within the scope of completely new users working with Spring - I'm really torn about this, but I may just need to disable testing for the time being so that I can continue working with other concepts.
