How to manage Login Session using JSFUnit

[samssams]

Our application is using LDAP authentication and application functionality is based on user roles and location.

We are maintaining user session object and for any subsequent request uses user session object to get roles and rolcation.

Now I am writting a JSFUnit test to create some Member in application. How I can manage user login session in this test.

I was trying to use sample posted on  http://community.jboss.org/message/69905 by Stan Silvert. but that sample code is not compiling. I get below error . screen print is attached too. Please let me know if more information is required.

The method makeWebConversation() is undefined for the type WebConversationFactory

Import in test

import org.jboss.jsfunit.framework.WebClientSpec;

import org.jboss.jsfunit.framework.WebConversationFactory;

import org.jboss.jsfunit.jsfsession.JSFClientSession;

import org.jboss.jsfunit.jsfsession.JSFServerSession;

import org.jboss.jsfunit.jsfsession.JSFSession;

WebConversation webConv = WebConversationFactory.makeWebConversation();
WebRequest req = new GetMethodWebRequest(WebConversationFactory.getWARURL() + "/login.jsp");
WebResponse res = webConv.getResponse(req);
WebForm loginform = res.getWebResponse().getFormWithID("loginform");
loginform.setParameter("j_username", "user");
loginform.setParameter("j_password", "user_password");
res = loginform.submit();

// now my session/webConv is authenticated. I can go to my JSF page
JSFClientSession client = new JSFClientSession(webConv, "/mystartpage.jsf");

Jar Version.

That was a very old post and I'm pretty sure it was before we integrated the Authentication Strategy classes.  Have you seen this article about managing logins?

Stan

[samssams]

Yes I did see it but login authentication is in seperate JSFUnit test(for testing I have 2 tests 1st for login and 2nd to create member in same class).

So when 2nd test is being excecuted it has new server session object becuase we are using again below code to create new JSFSession. Thanks a lot for your reply.

WebClientSpec wcSpec = new WebClientSpec("url to request");

        wcSpec.setInitialRequestStrategy(new WebSphereRequestStrategy());

        JSFSession jsfSession = new JSFSession(wcSpec);

[ssilvert]

You will need to incorporate the WebSphere logic and login logic into one single InitialRequestStrategy. 

You can not expect to stay logged in from one JSFSession to the next.  Each JSFSession starts with a clean HttpSession.  If the session were dirty it would not be a valid test.  So you must log in for each new JSFSession.  You just build an InitialRequestStrategy that meets your needs and then reuse that code each time you need a JSFSession.

[samssams]

WebClientSpec is only take one url as argument but we have 2 url one for login and one for actual test. how we can use both url togther.

if we start customizing the JSF unit looks like we need to cusmmtomize erverything e.g. InitialRequestStrategy , Page , WebClientSpec etc.

Could you plz post something that will help us to proceed on this.

[ssilvert]

You only need to write an InitialRequestStrategy.  Start by putting the URL you eventually want to go to inside WebClientSpec and proceed as shown:

WebClientSpec wcSpec = new WebClientSpec("/mysecurepage.jsf");
MyInitialRequestStrategy myStrategy = new MyInitialRequestStrategy();     
wcSpec.setInitialRequestStrategy(myStrategy);
JSFSession jsfSession = new JSFSession(wcSpec);

JSFSession will call MyInitialRequestStrategy to start the session.

MyInitialRequestStrategy should probably extend SimpleInitialRequestStrategy.  Inside your doInitialRequest() method, call wcSpec.getWebClient() and use the HtmlUnit API to do whatever login is needed.  You can hit any URLs you want and do any kind of setup needed before eventually calling super.doInitialRequest(wcSpec).

Just make sure that you get your WebClient object from wcSpec.getWebClient().  If you create a WebClient on your own then JSFUnit won't be able to find your session.

I am trying to customize InitialRequestStrategy by extending SimpleInitialRequestStrategy so I can use login thing before the actual test case but I am getting exception.when i disbaled javascript by webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(false);  execution will pass that line but on submit its throwing exception for some  javascript method not found.

import java.io.IOException;

public class TestRequestStrategy extends SimpleInitialRequestStrategy{

    @Override

    public Page doInitialRequest(WebClientSpec wcSpec) throws IOException {

        WebClient webClient  = wcSpec.getWebClient();

        URL url = new URL(WebConversationFactory.getWARURL()+"url.faces");

       // I tried String version too

        HtmlPage  page = webClient.getPage(url);  // this line throws exception.

        HtmlForm  form = page.getFormByName("formname");

        form.getElementById("test").setAttribute("value", "test");

        form.getElementById("testusr").setAttribute("value", "test");

        form.getElementById("testpass").setAttribute("value", "test");

        form.getElementById("submitId").click();

        return super.doInitialRequest(wcSpec);

    }

That's an HtmlUnit problem.  A few things to try:

• Make sure you are using HtmlUnit 2.8 and not an earlier version
• Set the BrowserVersion to a different value
• Google for the error message (htmlunit "Automation server can't create object")
• Ask for help on the HtmlUnit mailing list

Above error looks like pages was using some active x object so when we used jacob.jar(and dll) and set webClient.setActiveXNative(true); error was gone but now even I have commented that line I am not getting that error any more even after re-starting the server.  So now I am good on that error.

In below InitialRequestStrategy  when I use wcSpec.getWebClient(); then on submit of the form using form.getElementById("").click(); is not executing action call at all. looks like not submitting the form. but when I use new WebClient(BrowserVersion.INTERNET_EXPLORER_8); it will go to login action and execute it and in Both cases server.getFacesContext() is null where  JSFSession jsfSession = new JSFSession(wcSpec); and        

        JSFServerSession server = jsfSession.getJSFServerSession();

I have feeling that since application and test is deployed on websphere server actual application code is using some different FacesConectext and JSFUnit is using some different FacesContextIn debug I see some bean getting populated with values but when we try to get thise value back it will show null.

Thanks a lot for your help.

public class testInitialRequestStrategy extends SimpleInitialRequestStrategy{

    @Override

    public Page doInitialRequest(WebClientSpec wcSpec) throws IOException {

        WebClient webClient  = wcSpec.getWebClient();

        BrowserVersion version = webClient.getBrowserVersion();

        //webClient.setActiveXNative(true);

        URL url = new URL(WebConversationFactory.getWARURL()+"url.faces");

        //webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

addional code..

wcSpec.setInitialRequestStrategy(new testInitialRequestStrategy());
