Pre loading data from .sql before unit testing throws syntax error

Question

I'm performing unit testing on spring boot app using JPA and SpringJUnit4ClassRunner. for that I have created a configuration file as -


@Configuration
@EnableJpaRepositories(basePackages = "base_package_name")
@EnableTransactionManagement
public class JPAConfig {

    @Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        DriverManagerDataSource dataSource = new DriverManagerDataSource();
        dataSource.setDriverClassName("org.postgresql.Driver");
        dataSource.setUrl("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/employeedb_test");
        dataSource.setUsername("postgres");
        dataSource.setPassword("postgres");

        return dataSource;
    }

    private Properties hibernateProperties() {
        Properties properties = new Properties();
        properties.put("hibernate.dialect", "org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQL9Dialect");        
        properties.put("hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", "create");
        properties.put("hibernate.show_sql", "true");
        properties.put("hibernate.format_sql", "false");
        return properties;
    }

    @Bean(name="entityManagerFactory")
    public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactoryBean(){

        LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean lcemfb
            = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();

        lcemfb.setDataSource(this.dataSource());
        lcemfb.setPackagesToScan(new String[] {"Package_to_scan"});

        HibernateJpaVendorAdapter va = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
        lcemfb.setJpaVendorAdapter(va);

        lcemfb.setJpaProperties(this.hibernateProperties());

        lcemfb.afterPropertiesSet();

        return lcemfb;

    }


    @Bean
    public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(){

        JpaTransactionManager tm = new JpaTransactionManager();

        tm.setEntityManagerFactory(
            this.entityManagerFactoryBean().getObject() );

        return tm;

    }

    @Bean
    public PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor exceptionTranslation(){
        return new PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor();
    }
}

My test class looks like this -


@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(classes={
        JPAConfig.class,
        TestConfig.class
        })
@SqlGroup({
    @Sql(executionPhase=ExecutionPhase.BEFORE_TEST_METHOD,scripts="classpath:beforeTestRun.sql")
})
public class ExampleTest {
     ...
}

now I want to insert data from script file beforeTestRun.sql into entity before running any test. so I added following annotation above my test class(i.e. ExampleTest) -

@SqlGroup({
    @Sql(executionPhase=ExecutionPhase.BEFORE_TEST_METHOD,scripts="classpath:beforeTestRun.sql")
})

my beforeTestRun.sql contains insert query -

INSERT INTO employee(emp_name)
    VALUES ('Jhon Dave');

my model class is -


@Entity
@Table(name = "employee")
public class Employee {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name="emp_id")
    Integer id;

    @Column(name="emp_name")
    String empName;


    public Integer getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getEmpName() {
        return empName;
    }
    public void setEmpName(String empName) {
        this.empName = empName;
    }


}

now after running test class, it trying to insert from .sql file but eventhough the syntax is correct it throwing an error says -

org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.init.ScriptStatementFailedException: Failed to execute SQL script statement #1 of class path resource [beforeTestRun.sql]: INSERT INTO employee(emp_name) VALUES ('Jhon Dave'); nested exception is org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: syntax error at or near "INSERT"

Can you please suggest me on this??

have you tried the query with schema qualified something like this, INSERT INTO <schema>.employee (emp_name) VALUES ('Jhon Dave'); — MOnkey

An easier way to test a database would be to use a h2 database with autoconfigs. If you place a "data.sql" with your insert statement and a "schema.sql" file with the employee table schema into the "resources" folder of your test folder, spring boot will automatically load those 2 scripts without a problem, im using this myself all the time and it works like a charm.

Here is some code: https://howtodoinjava.com/spring-boot2/h2-database-example/
