mockMvc - Test Error Message

Question

Does anybody have any tips, or does anybody know how I can test the \"error message\" returned by the HTTP response object?

@Autowired
private WebApplicationCont         


        

Answer 1

Even simpler:

String error =  mockMvc...
    .andExpect(status().isUnauthorized())
    .andReturn().getResolvedException().getMessage();

assertTrue(StringUtils.contains(error, "Bad credentials"));
