Package org.camunda.bpm.engine.test

Class ProcessEngineTestCase

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    junit.framework.Test
    public class ProcessEngineTestCase
extends junit.framework.TestCase
    Convenience for ProcessEngine and services initialization in the form of a JUnit base class.

    Usage: public class YourTest extends ProcessEngineTestCase

    The ProcessEngine and the services available to subclasses through protected member fields. The processEngine will be initialized by default with the camunda.cfg.xml resource on the classpath. To specify a different configuration file, override the getConfigurationResource() method. Process engines will be cached statically. The first time the setUp is called for a given configuration resource, the process engine will be constructed.

    You can declare a deployment with the Deployment annotation. This base class will make sure that this deployment gets deployed in the setUp and cascade deleted in the tearDown.

    This class also lets you set the current time used by the process engine. This can be handy to control the exact time that is used by the engine in order to verify e.g. e.g. due dates of timers. Or start, end and duration times in the history service. In the tearDown, the internal clock will automatically be reset to use the current system time rather then the time that was set during a test method. In other words, you don't have to clean up your own time messing mess ;-)
