Chapter 4. Injection of CDI beans into tests


You can perform unit testing and test CDI beans directly. Quarkus enables you to inject CDI beans into your tests through the @Inject annotation. In fact, tests in Quarkus are full CDI beans so you can use the complete CDI functionality.

Note

It is not possible to use injection with native tests.

Procedure

  • Create the GreetingServiceTest.java file with the following content:

    package org.acme.quickstart;
    
    import javax.inject.Inject;
    
    import org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions;
    import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
    
    import io.quarkus.test.junit.QuarkusTest;
    
    @QuarkusTest
    public class GreetingServiceTest {
    
        @Inject 
    1
    
        GreetingService service;
    
        @Test
        public void testGreetingService() {
            Assertions.assertEquals("hello Quarkus", service.greeting("Quarkus"));
        }
    }
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    1
    The GreetingService bean will be injected into the test.
