mockmvc

My @ControllerAdvice annotated Controller looks like this: @ControllerAdvice public class GlobalControllerExceptionHandler { @ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED) @ExceptionHandler(AuthenticationException.class) public void authenticationExceptionHandler() { } } Of course my development is test driven and I would like to use my exception Handler in the JUnit Tests. My Test case looks like this: public class ClientQueriesControllerTest { private MockMvc mockMvc; @InjectMocks private ClientQueriesController controller; @Mock private AuthenticationService authenticationService; @Before

I am trying to unit-test login and security in my REST API, so I try to mock real-life request sequences as close as possible. My first request would be: this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(this.wac). addFilters(springSecurityFilterChain).build(); this.mapper = new ObjectMapper(); .... MvcResult result=mockMvc.perform(get("/login/csrf")).andExpect(status().is(200)).andReturn(); Cookie[] cookies = result.getResponse().getCookies(); (See full class on pastebin ). I try to get the cookie here to be able to login with the received CSRF token later, but the cookies array is empty!
