Why Integration Test GraphQL?

Welcome to integration testing for GraphQL APIs! While unit tests check small parts of your code, integration tests verify that different components work together correctly.

  • End-to-End Flow: They simulate real client requests.
  • Component Interaction: Ensure your GraphQL schema, resolvers, and data sources all connect properly.
  • Confidence: Gives you assurance that your API behaves as expected before deployment.

This lesson focuses on using Spring Boot's testing utilities.

Essential Spring Boot Test Tools

Spring Boot provides powerful tools to make integration testing straightforward:

  • @SpringBootTest: This annotation loads your full application context, making all your beans available for testing.
  • WebTestClient: A non-blocking client for testing web endpoints. It simulates HTTP requests to your GraphQL API.

Together, these allow you to send actual GraphQL queries/mutations and inspect the responses.

Setting Up Your Test Class

To start, you'll create a test class. Annotate it with @SpringBootTest to load your application context. Then, inject WebTestClient to interact with your GraphQL endpoint.

We typically use @AutoConfigureWebTestClient to configure WebTestClient for testing, often with a specific port or context path.

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class GraphQLIntegrationTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  // Your test methods will go here
}

Crafting a Simple Query Test

Let's write a test for a basic GraphQL query. We'll define the query string and then use WebTestClient to send it to the /graphql endpoint.

The query will be sent as a JSON payload in the request body, typically containing a query field and optionally variables.

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class SampleQueryTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testHelloQuery() {
    String graphQlQuery = "{ hello }";

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlQuery))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk()
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.data.hello").isEqualTo("Hello, GraphQL!");
  }
}

Runnable: Query & Assert Result

Here's a full runnable example. We have a simple Spring Boot app with a hello GraphQL query, and an integration test verifying its output.

Notice how jsonPath is used to navigate the GraphQL response structure (data.hello) and assert the value.

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.graphql.data.method.annotation.QueryMapping;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

// --- Application Code ---
@SpringBootApplication
public class GraphQLApp {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    SpringApplication.run(GraphQLApp.class, args);
  }
}

@Controller
class HelloResolver {
  @QueryMapping
  public String hello() {
    return "Hello, GraphQL!";
  }
}

// --- Test Code ---
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class HelloQueryIntegrationTest {
  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testHelloQuery() {
    String graphQlQuery = "{ hello }";

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlQuery))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk()
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.data.hello").isEqualTo("Hello, GraphQL!");
  }
}

Testing Queries with Variables

Many GraphQL queries take arguments. You can pass these as variables in your request payload. The variables field in the JSON request body should be a map of variable names to their values.

Remember to define the variables in your GraphQL query string (e.g., query MyQuery($name: String!)).

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class QueryWithVarsTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testGreetQueryWithName() {
    String graphQlQuery = "query Greet($name: String!) { greet(name: $name) }";
    Map<String, Object> variables = Map.of("name", "Coddy");

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlQuery, "variables", variables))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk()
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.data.greet").isEqualTo("Hello, Coddy!");
  }
}

Integration Testing a Mutation

Mutations are used for creating, updating, or deleting data. Testing them follows a similar pattern to queries but you'll use the mutation keyword in your GraphQL string.

It's good practice to assert the return value of the mutation and, if applicable, verify the state change (e.g., by performing a subsequent query).

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class MutationIntegrationTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testCreateItemMutation() {
    String graphQlMutation = "mutation CreateItem($name: String!) { createItem(name: $name) { id name } }";
    Map<String, Object> variables = Map.of("name", "New Widget");

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlMutation, "variables", variables))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk()
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.data.createItem.name").isEqualTo("New Widget");
  }
}

Handling GraphQL Errors in Tests

When your GraphQL API encounters an error (e.g., validation failure, unauthorized access), it typically returns an errors array in the response body, alongside a potential data field (if some parts succeeded).

You can use jsonPath to check for the presence and content of these error messages in your tests.

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class ErrorHandlingTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testInvalidInputError() {
    String graphQlMutation = "mutation CreateItem($name: String!) { createItem(name: $name) { id } }";
    Map<String, Object> variables = Map.of("name", ""); // Assume empty name is invalid

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlMutation, "variables", variables))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk() // GraphQL errors usually return 200 OK
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.errors").isArray()
        .jsonPath("$.errors[0].message").isNotEmpty()
        .jsonPath("$.errors[0].message").isEqualTo("Item name cannot be empty.");
  }
}

Testing Protected Endpoints

If your GraphQL API uses Spring Security, you'll want to test how it responds to authenticated and unauthenticated requests. WebTestClient allows you to easily add headers, including authorization tokens.

This ensures your security configuration correctly protects your GraphQL fields and operations.

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.reactive.AutoConfigureWebTestClient;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.WebTestClient;
import java.util.Map;

@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureWebTestClient
class ProtectedEndpointTest {

  @Autowired
  private WebTestClient webTestClient;

  @Test
  void testProtectedQuery_unauthorized() {
    String graphQlQuery = "{ protectedData }";

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlQuery))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk() // GraphQL often returns 200 with errors for auth issues
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.errors").isArray()
        .jsonPath("$.errors[0].message").isEqualTo("Unauthorized access");
  }

  @Test
  void testProtectedQuery_authorized() {
    String graphQlQuery = "{ protectedData }";
    String validToken = "mock-jwt-token"; // In a real app, generate a valid test token

    webTestClient.post().uri("/graphql")
        .header("Authorization", "Bearer " + validToken)
        .bodyValue(Map.of("query", graphQlQuery))
        .exchange()
        .expectStatus().isOk()
        .expectBody()
        .jsonPath("$.data.protectedData").isEqualTo("Secret Info");
  }
}

Quick Check: Integration Tests

Consider the following GraphQL query and a Spring Boot application that exposes a product(id: ID!) query. Which WebTestClient assertion correctly verifies that a product with ID '123' and name 'Laptop' is returned?
