Using both Arquillian and PowerMock in the same JUnit test

Question
I would like to use the features of both Arquillian and PowerMock in the same JUnit 4 test.
The problem is that both products are JUnit Runner
s which should be used with @RunWith
, and this is not possible to use multiple @RunWith
on the same test class, or to put multiple Runner
s class in the same @RunWith
annotation.
Do you know any way to do that ?
Solution
You can use PowerMock without using the runner if you use the PowerMockRule (which is a TestRule). From the PowerMockRule:
Since version 1.4 it's possible to bootstrap PowerMock using a JUnit Rule instead of using the PowerMockRunner and the RunWith annotation. This allows you to use other JUnit runners while still benefiting from PowerMock's functionality. You do this by specifying:
@RunWith(Arquillian.class);
public class MyTest {
@Rule
PowerMockRule rule = new PowerMockRule();
// Tests goes here
...
}
See also the answers to Junit Parameterized tests together with Powermock - how? and the following thread in the PowerMock google group: Using PowerMock without the RunWith?.
OTHER TIPS
No, you either need to:
- use one and create a test base class that does the things you wanted the other runner to do.
- separate your test into multiple tests, each using different runners.
JUnit4 only supports one @RunWith annotation, and JUnit4's @RunWith annotation doesn’t accept multiple runners.
