How t write JUnit Test Cases for my servlet

[Ravi Kiran Va]

Hi ,

I have a servlet and inside the doGet() method i have this
// Just checking username and password and authenticating them .

String uname = req.getParameter("name");
String pass = req.getParameter("pass");

if(uname.equals(pass))
{
// allow
}

else
{
// throw an exception 
}

Please let me know how can i write Test Cases for this ??


Thanks in advance.

You could use HTTPUnit, HTMLUnit, Selenium etc.

Something like http://sourceforge.net/projects/junitee/ or http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/ would let you run tests in a server environment.

Personally, I'd test the functionality outside of the servlet. I use servlets (well, not really, but their equivalent) only to marshall data to service objects (or similar). I keep functionality isolated from the Servlet spec as much as possible to make testing easier.
