Spring provides integration between MockMvc and HtmlUnit. This simplifies performing end-to-end testing when using HTML-based views. This integration lets you:
-
Easily test HTML pages by using tools such as HtmlUnit, WebDriver, and Geb without the need to deploy to a Servlet container.
-
Test JavaScript within pages.
-
Optionally, test using mock services to speed up testing.
-
Share logic between in-container end-to-end tests and out-of-container integration tests.
| MockMvc works with templating technologies that do not rely on a Servlet Container (for example, Thymeleaf, FreeMarker, and others), but it does not work with JSPs, since they rely on the Servlet container. |
