# Unit Testing

Artemis resources can be run inside JUnit Tests by using provided Rules (for JUnit 4) or Extensions (for JUnit 5). This can make it easier to embed messaging functionality in your tests.

These are provided by the packages `artemis-junit` (JUnit 4) and `artemis-junit-5` (JUnit 5).


## Examples

### JUnit 4

#### Add Maven dependency

```xml
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.apache.activemq</groupId>
   <artifactId>artemis-junit</artifactId>
   <!-- replace this for the version you are using -->
   <version>@PROJECT_VERSION_FILTER_TOKEN@</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
```

#### Declare a rule on your JUnit Test

```java
import org.apache.activemq.artemis.junit.EmbeddedActiveMQResource;
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;

public class MyTest {

   @Rule
   public EmbeddedActiveMQResource server = new EmbeddedActiveMQResource();

   @Test
   public void myTest() {
     // test something, eg. create a queue
     server.createQueue("test.adress", "test.queue");
   }
}
```

### JUnit 5

#### Add Maven dependency

```xml
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.apache.activemq</groupId>
   <artifactId>artemis-junit-5</artifactId>
   <!-- replace this for the version you are using -->
   <version>@PROJECT_VERSION_FILTER_TOKEN@</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
```

#### Declare a rule on your JUnit Test

```java
import org.apache.activemq.artemis.junit.EmbeddedActiveMQExtension;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.RegisterExtension;

public class MyTest {

   @RegisterExtension
   public EmbeddedActiveMQExtension server = new EmbeddedActiveMQExtension();

   @Test
   public void myTest() {
     // test something, eg. create a queue
     server.createQueue("test.adress", "test.queue");
   }
}
```


## Ordering rules / extensions

This is actually a JUnit feature, but this could be helpful on pre-determining the order on which rules are executed.

### JUnit 4 

```java
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.rules.RuleChain;

public EmbeddedActiveMQResource server = new EmbeddedActiveMQResource();
public ActiveMQDynamicProducerResource producer = new ActiveMQDynamicProducerResource(server.getVmURL());

@Rule
public RuleChain ruleChain = RuleChain.outerRule(server).around(producer);
```

### JUnit 5 

```java
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Order;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.RegisterExtension;

@RegisterExtension
@Order(1)
public EmbeddedActiveMQExtension producer = new EmbeddedActiveMQExtension();

@RegisterExtension
@Order(2)
public ActiveMQDynamicProducerExtension producer = new ActiveMQDynamicProducerExtension(server.getVmURL());
```

## Available Rules / Extensions

JUnit 4 Rule | JUnit 5 Extension | Description
--- | --- | ---
EmbeddedActiveMQResource | EmbeddedActiveMQExtension | Run a Server, without the JMS manager	
~~EmbeddedJMSResource~~ (deprecated) | no equivalent | Run a Server, including the JMS Manager
ActiveMQConsumerResource | ActiveMQConsumerExtension | Automate the creation of a consumer		
ActiveMQDynamicProducerResource | ActiveMQDynamicProducerExtension | Automate the creation of a producer
ActiveMQProducerResource | ActiveMQProducerExtension | Automate the creation of a producer
