Sqsmock is a web service implementing AWS SQS API, which can be used for local testing of your code using SQS but without hitting real SQS endpoints.

Implemented API methods:

• CreateQueue (supported params: VisibilityTimeout)
• DeleteMessage
• ReceiveMessage (supported params: MaxNumberOfMessages)
• SendMessage
• SendMessageBatch

Sqsmock package is available for Scala 2.12 (on Java 8) on Maven Central. To install using SBT, add these statements to your build.sbt:

libraryDependencies += "io.findify" %% "sqsmock" % "0.4.1" % "test",

On maven, update your pom.xml in the following way:

// add this entry to <repositories/>

// add this entry to <dependencies/>
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.findify</groupId>
    <artifactId>sqsmock_2.12</artifactId>
    <version>0.4.1</version>
    <type>pom</type>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Scala:

// create and start SQS API mock
val api = new SQSService(port = 8001, account = 1)
api.start()

// AWS SQS client setup
val credentials = new AnonymousAWSCredentials()
val client = new AmazonSQSClient(credentials)
client.setEndpoint("http://localhost:8001")

// use it as usual
val queue = client.createQueue("hello").getQueueUrl()
client.sendMessage(queue, "world")

Java:

// create and start SQS API mock
SQSService api = new SQSService(8001, 1);
api.start();

// AWS SQS client setup
AWSCredentials credentials = new AnonymousAWSCredentials();
AmazonSQSClient client = new AmazonSQSClient(credentials);
client.setEndpoint("http://localhost:8001");

// use it as usual
String queue = client.createQueue("hello").getQueueUrl();
client.sendMessage(queue, "world");
