Example 1 with MailActionExecuter

use of org.alfresco.repo.action.executer.MailActionExecuter in project alfresco-remote-api by Alfresco.

the class InviteServiceTest method configureMailExecutorForTestMode.

/**
 * This method turns off email-sending within the MailActionExecuter bean.
 */
public static void configureMailExecutorForTestMode(TestWebScriptServer server) {
    // This test class depends on a MailActionExecuter bean which sends out emails
    // in a live system. We want to prevent these emails from being sent during
    // test execution.
    // To do that, we need to get at the outboundSMTP-context.xml and change its
    // "mail" MailActionExecuter bean to test mode. setTestMode(true) on that object
    // will turn off email sending.
    // But that bean is defined within a subsystem i.e. a child application context.
    // There are a number of ways we could do this, none of them perfect.
    // 
    // 1. Expose the setTestMode(boolean) method in the subsystem API.
    // We could have the "mail" bean implement a "TestModeable" interface and
    // expose that through the proxy.
    // But that would mean that the setTestMode method would be available in the
    // live system too, which is not ideal.
    // 2. Replace the "mail" bean in outboundSMTP-context.xml with an alternative in a
    // different subsystem context file as described in
    // http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_Subsystems#Debugging_Alfresco_Subsystems
    // But to do that, we'd have to reproduce all the spring config for that bean
    // and add a testMode property. Again not ideal.
    // 3. Hack into the "mail" bean by programmatically going through the known applicationContext
    // and bean structure. This is not ideal either, but it has no effect on product code
    // and isolates all the hacking into this test class.
    // 
    // Therefore we've decided to do [3].
