A Test Endpoint is a Mock Endpoint for testing but it will pull all messages from the nested endpoint and use those as expected message body assertions.

Name Kind Group Required Default Type Enum Description
name path producer true java.lang.String Name of endpoint to lookup in the registry to use for polling messages used for testing
bridgeErrorHandler parameter consumer boolean Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler.

By default the consumer will use the org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler to deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN/ERROR level and ignored.

exceptionHandler parameter consumer (advanced) org.apache.camel.spi.ExceptionHandler To let the consumer use a custom ExceptionHandler. + Notice if the option bridgeErrorHandler is enabled then this options is not in use. + By default the consumer will deal with exceptions, that will be logged at WARN/ERROR level and ignored.
assertPeriod parameter producer 0 long Sets a grace period after which the mock endpoint will re-assert to ensure the preliminary assertion is still valid.

This is used for example to assert that exactly a number of messages arrives. For example if {@link #expectedMessageCount(int)} was set to 5, then the assertion is satisfied when 5 or more message arrives. To ensure that exactly 5 messages arrives, then you would need to wait a little period to ensure no further message arrives. This is what you can use this {@link #setAssertPeriod(long)} method for.

By default this period is disabled. @param period grace period in millis

expectedCount parameter producer -1 int Specifies the expected number of message exchanges that should be received by this endpoint.

Beware: If you want to expect that 0 messages, then take extra care, as 0 matches when the tests starts, so you need to set a assert period time to let the test run for a while to make sure there are still no messages arrived; for that use {@link #setAssertPeriod(long)}. An alternative is to use NotifyBuilder, and use the notifier to know when Camel is done routing some messages, before you call the {@link #assertIsSatisfied()} method on the mocks. This allows you to not use a fixed assert period, to speedup testing times.

If you want to assert that exactly n'th message arrives to this mock endpoint, then see also the {@link #setAssertPeriod(long)} method for further details. @param expectedCount the number of message exchanges that should be expected by this endpoint @see #setAssertPeriod(long)

reportGroup parameter producer int A number that is used to turn on throughput logging based on groups of the size.
resultMinimumWaitTime parameter producer 0 long Sets the minimum expected amount of time (in millis) the {@link #assertIsSatisfied()} will wait on a latch until it is satisfied
resultWaitTime parameter producer 0 long Sets the maximum amount of time (in millis) the {@link #assertIsSatisfied()} will wait on a latch until it is satisfied
retainFirst parameter producer -1 int Specifies to only retain the first n'th number of received {@link Exchange}s.

This is used when testing with big data, to reduce memory consumption by not storing copies of every {@link Exchange} this mock endpoint receives.

Important: When using this limitation, then the {@link #getReceivedCounter()} will still return the actual number of received {@link Exchange}s. For example if we have received 5000 {@link Exchange}s, and have configured to only retain the first 10 {@link Exchange}s, then the {@link #getReceivedCounter()} will still return 5000 but there is only the first 10 {@link Exchange}s in the {@link #getExchanges()} and {@link #getReceivedExchanges()} methods.

When using this method, then some of the other expectation methods is not supported, for example the {@link #expectedBodiesReceived(Object...)} sets a expectation on the first number of bodies received.

You can configure both {@link #setRetainFirst(int)} and {@link #setRetainLast(int)} methods, to limit both the first and last received. @param retainFirst to limit and only keep the first n'th received {@link Exchange}s, use 0 to not retain any messages, or -1 to retain all. @see #setRetainLast(int)

retainLast parameter producer -1 int Specifies to only retain the last n'th number of received {@link Exchange}s.

This is used when testing with big data, to reduce memory consumption by not storing copies of every {@link Exchange} this mock endpoint receives.

Important: When using this limitation, then the {@link #getReceivedCounter()} will still return the actual number of received {@link Exchange}s. For example if we have received 5000 {@link Exchange}s, and have configured to only retain the last 20 {@link Exchange}s, then the {@link #getReceivedCounter()} will still return 5000 but there is only the last 20 {@link Exchange}s in the {@link #getExchanges()} and {@link #getReceivedExchanges()} methods.

When using this method, then some of the other expectation methods is not supported, for example the {@link #expectedBodiesReceived(Object...)} sets a expectation on the first number of bodies received.

You can configure both {@link #setRetainFirst(int)} and {@link #setRetainLast(int)} methods, to limit both the first and last received. @param retainLast to limit and only keep the last n'th received {@link Exchange}s, use 0 to not retain any messages, or -1 to retain all. @see #setRetainFirst(int)

sleepForEmptyTest parameter producer 0 long Allows a sleep to be specified to wait to check that this endpoint really is empty when {@link #expectedMessageCount(int)} is called with zero @param sleepForEmptyTest the milliseconds to sleep for to determine that this endpoint really is empty
timeout parameter producer 2000 long The timeout to use when polling for message bodies from the URI
copyOnExchange parameter producer (advanced) true boolean Sets whether to make a deep copy of the incoming {@link Exchange} when received at this mock endpoint.

Is by default true.

exchangePattern parameter advanced InOnly org.apache.camel.ExchangePattern InOnly

Sets the default exchange pattern when creating an exchange.
synchronous parameter advanced false boolean Sets whether synchronous processing should be strictly used, or Camel is allowed to use asynchronous processing (if supported). @param synchronous true to enforce synchronous processing
