Akka Persistence Plugin Testkit

A compatibility testkit for Akka Persistence storage plugins.

Installation

Testkit dependency

To include the testkit into your sbt project, add the following lines to build.sbt:

resolvers += "krasserm at bintray" at "http://dl.bintray.com/krasserm/maven"

libraryDependencies += "com.github.krasserm" %% "akka-persistence-testkit" % "0.3.4" % "test"

This version of the plugin depends on Akka 2.3.3 and is cross-built against Scala 2.10.4 and 2.11.0.

Implementation

Journal plugins tests

The testkit defines an akka.persistence.journal.JournalSpec trait that can be implemented by plugin projects in the following way:

package org.example

import com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory
import akka.persistence.journal.JournalSpec

class MyJournalSpec extends JournalSpec {
  lazy val config = ConfigFactory.parseString("...")

  override def beforeAll() {
    // before plugin initialization
    // ...

    // plugin initialization
    super.beforeAll()
  }

  override def afterAll() {
    // plugin shutdown
    super.afterAll()

    // after plugin shutdown
    // ...
  }
}

The plugin config must be defined as lazy val. It will be loaded by JournalSpec during initialization. Plugin initialization and shutdown can be customized by overriding beforeAll() and afterAll() (optional).

Journal plugins tests for deprecated plugin API

JournalSpec only tests those part of the journal plugin API that are not deprecated in Akka 2.3.4. If you want to test the deprecated plugin API as well you should extend LegacyJournalSpec instead. This additionally tests your journal plugin to properly support channels and individual message deletions:

package org.example

import com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory
import akka.persistence.journal.LegacyJournalSpec

class MyLegacyJournalSpec extends LegacyJournalSpec {
  lazy val config = ConfigFactory.parseString("...")

  override def beforeAll() {
    // before plugin initialization
    // ...

    // plugin initialization
    super.beforeAll()
  }

  override def afterAll() {
    // plugin shutdown
    super.afterAll()

    // after plugin shutdown
    // ...
  }
}

Snapshot store plugin tests

In order to test snapshot store plugins, projects must implement akka.persistence.snapshot.SnapshotStoreSpec:

package org.example

import com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory
import akka.persistence.snapshot.SnapshotStoreSpec

class MySnapshotStoreSpec extends SnapshotStoreSpec {
  lazy val config = ConfigFactory.parseString("...")

  override def beforeAll() {
    // before plugin initialization
    // ...

    // plugin initialization
    super.beforeAll()
  }

  override def afterAll() {
    // plugin shutdown
    super.afterAll()

    // after plugin shutdown
    // ...
  }
}

Running

Under sbt, the tests inherited from JournalSpec and SnapshotStoreSpec can be executed with

> testOnly org.example.MyJournalSpec org.example.MySnapshotStoreSpec
