[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Creating Mock for identity component

[andreigh.ts]

I am unable to mock the Identity component (so that  I can bypass authentication and permission checking in testing).

I am using SeamTest and in the FacesRequest I am calling my ping component:


  | public class PingTest extends SeamTest {
  | 
  | 	@Test(groups = { "dev" })
  | 	public void test() throws Exception {
  | 		new FacesRequest() {
  | 			@Override
  | 			protected void invokeApplication() {
  | 				//call action methods here
  | 				invokeMethod("#{ping.ping}");
  | 			}
  | 		}.run();
  | 	}
  | }
  | 

ping is a Seam component that uses Restrict:


  | @Stateless
  | @Name("ping")
  | @Restrict("#{identity.loggedIn}")
  | public class PingAction implements Ping {
  | ...
  | 	public void ping() {
  | 		...
  | 	}
  | ...
  | }
  | 

I am trying to mock the identity component like this:


  | @Name("identity")
  | @Install(precedence=Install.MOCK)
  | public class Identity extends org.jboss.seam.security.RuleBasedIdentity {
  | 	public boolean 	isLoggedIn() {
  | 		return true;
  | 	}
  | }
  | 

When I run the tests it throws this exception:

Mocking my own components (for example ping) works very well, so I don't understand why this throws an exception...
