    Getting "HttpSession is invalid" error while using JSFUnit

      Hi,

      I am trying to use JSFUnit to test my ADF Faces pages (.jspx pages). Since my UI page is a protected page, I need to authenticate using username and password (weblogic credentials). After giving the credentials through JSFUnit API, looks like the HTTP session is invalidated. Since the HTTP session is invalidated, I am not able to test my UI pages after login (pasted the exception stack trace below). Can you please provide me the solution to resolve this issue.

       

       

      I am using jboss-jsfunit-core-1.3.0.Final.jar, jboss-jsfunit-richfaces-1.3.0.Final.jar, htmlunit-2.8 and htmlunit-core-js-2.8.jar.

          HI Iakshmi,

           

          Here are a couple of articles that should help:

            Stan,

             

            Thanks for the quick reply.

             

            Possible Solution 1: Changing the JSessionId cookie value

             

            I had already tried the solution (changing the JSessionId cookie value) that is mentioned in the second link (How to manage Login Session using JSFUnit). But server.getFacesContext() returns null. Because of this, server.getCurrentViewID() throws NPE. Also, there are no ComponentIds present in JSFServerSession, so I am not able to use the JSFUnit API's for testing.

             

            Now I tried to use FormAuthenticationStrategy as per the first link (https://developer.jboss.org/docs/DOC-10974) but I got the same error "HttpSession is invalid". I got the same error in both FF & IE.

             

            Can you please tell me how to retain the same HTTPSession in valid state.

             

            Possible Solution 2: Using already authenticated session

             

            I tried to use the same session which is authenticated already to test my pages as shown below but that is also not working.

             

            1. Open the browser

            2. Access the URL to my actual application page directly and authenticate it by manually typing in the login credentials.

            3. Open another tab in the same browser and access the ServletTestRunner URL.

             

            Since the session is already authenticated, I was expecting that the JSFUnit should not ask for authentication again but found that it does.

             

            Investigated this issue further and found the following.

             

            1. There are two threads running ServletTestRunner and ServletRedirector.

            2. ServletTestRunner uses the same JSessionId (G0XYVj1XGymY9JK0WB2wKrp1y02DQTCq9dllppSgpX0hhGHk6Vmg!-1328705646) which is authenticated already (same JSessionId found in browser).

            3. But ServletRedirector uses different JSessionId (LtfXVj1Gyn3gLDxfDp1JZSYJzXJYFyYwT2bYVYv7wxvy2ty1hx3d) which is only used by WebClientSpec. Since this JSessionId(LtfXVj1Gyn3gLDxfDp1JZSYJzXJYFyYwT2bYVYv7wxvy2ty1hx3d) is not authenticated, it is going for authentication again.

             

            Atleast if we can use the ServletTestRunner's JSessionID in webClientSpec / ServletRedirector, we don't need to do the authentication again. Can you please let me know is it possible to do the same. If yes, can you tell me the steps to do the same.

             

            Thanks,

            Lakshmi.
