Project Modules

There are no modules declared in this project.

TestFX

Simple and clean testing for JavaFX.

TestFX requires a minimum Java version of 8 (1.8).

Documentation

See the Javadocs for latest master.
See the changelog CHANGES.md for latest released version.

Features

A fluent and clean API.
Flexible setup and cleanup of JavaFX test fixtures.
Simple robots to simulate user interactions.
Rich collection of matchers and assertions to verify expected states of JavaFX scene-graph nodes.

Support for:

Java 8/9/10/11+
Multiple testing frameworks (JUnit 4, JUnit 5, and Spock).
Hamcrest matchers or AssertJ assertions (or both!).
Screenshots of failed tests.
Headless testing using Monocle.

Gradle

To add a dependency on TestFX using Gradle, use the following:

dependencies {
    testCompile "org.testfx:testfx-core:4.0.16-alpha"
}

Java 11+

Beginning with Java 11, JavaFX is no longer part of the JDK. It has been extracted to its own project: OpenJFX. This means, extra dependencies must be added to your project.

The easiest way to add the JavaFX libraries to your Gradle project is to use the JavaFX Gradle Plugin.

After following the README for the JavaFX Gradle Plugin you will end up with something like:

plugins {
    id 'org.openjfx.javafxplugin' version '0.0.8'
}

javafx {
    version = '12'
    modules = [ 'javafx.controls', 'javafx.fxml' ]
}

Test Framework

Next add a dependency corresponding to the testing framework you are using in your project. TestFX currently supports JUnit 4, JUnit 5, and Spock.

JUnit 4

dependencies {
    testCompile "junit:junit:4.13-beta-3"
    testCompile "org.testfx:testfx-junit:4.0.16-alpha"
}

JUnit 5

dependencies {
    testCompile 'org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.5.1'
    testCompile "org.testfx:testfx-junit5:4.0.16-alpha"
}

Spock

dependencies {
    testCompile "org.spockframework:spock-core:1.3-groovy-2.5"
    testCompile "org.testfx:testfx-spock:4.0.16-alpha"
}

Matcher/Assertions Library

Finally you must add a dependency corresponding to the matcher/assertions libraries that you want to use with TestFX. TestFX currently supports Hamcrest matchers or AssertJ assertions.

Hamcrest

testCompile group: 'org.hamcrest', name: 'hamcrest', version: '2.1'

AssertJ

testCompile group: 'org.assertj', name: 'assertj-core', version: '3.13.2'

Maven

To add a dependency on TestFX using Maven, use the following:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>testfx-core</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.16-alpha</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Java 11+

Beginning with Java 11, JavaFX is no longer part of the JDK. It has been extracted to its own project: OpenJFX. This means, extra dependencies must be added to your project.

The easiest way to add the JavaFX libraries to your Maven project is to use the JavaFX Maven Plugin.

After following the README for the JavaFX Maven Plugin you will end up with something like:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>javafx-controls</artifactId>
        <version>12.0.2</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

<plugins>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>javafx-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>0.0.3</version>
        <configuration>
            <mainClass>hellofx/org.openjfx.App</mainClass>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>
</plugins>

Have a look at Maven Central's org.openjfx entry for an overview of available modules.

Test Framework

Next add a dependency corresponding to the testing framework you are using in your project. TestFX currently supports JUnit 4, JUnit 5, and Spock.

JUnit 4

<dependency>
    <groupId>junit</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
    <version>4.13-beta-3</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>testfx-junit</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.16-alpha</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

JUnit 5

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId>
    <version>5.5.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>testfx-junit5</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.16-alpha</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Spock

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.spockframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spock-core</artifactId>
    <version>1.3-groovy-2.5</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>testfx-spock</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.16-alpha</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Matcher/Assertions Library

Finally you must add a dependency corresponding to the matcher/assertions libraries that you want to use with TestFX. TestFX currently supports Hamcrest matchers or AssertJ assertions.

Hamcrest

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hamcrest</groupId>
    <artifactId>hamcrest</artifactId>
    <version>2.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

AssertJ

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.assertj</groupId>
    <artifactId>assertj-core</artifactId>
    <version>3.13.2</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Examples

Hamcrest Matchers

TestFX brings along a couple of custom Hamcrest matchers in package org.testfx.matcher.*.

AssertJ based Assertions

TestFX uses its own AssertJ based assertion implementation class: org.testfx.assertions.api.Assertions.

JUnit 4 with Hamcrest Matchers

import org.junit.Test;
import org.testfx.api.FxAssert;
import org.testfx.framework.junit.ApplicationTest;
import org.testfx.matcher.control.LabeledMatchers;

import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class ClickableButtonTest_JUnit4Hamcrest extends ApplicationTest {

    private Button button;

    /**
     * Will be called with {@code @Before} semantics, i. e. before each test method.
     */
    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) {
        button = new Button("click me!");
        button.setOnAction(actionEvent -> button.setText("clicked!"));
        stage.setScene(new Scene(new StackPane(button), 100, 100));
        stage.show();
    }

    @Test
    public void should_contain_button_with_text() {
        FxAssert.verifyThat(".button", LabeledMatchers.hasText("click me!"));
    }

    @Test
    public void when_button_is_clicked_text_changes() {
        // when:
        clickOn(".button");

        // then:
        FxAssert.verifyThat(".button", LabeledMatchers.hasText("clicked!"));
    }
}

JUnit 4 with AssertJ based Assertions

import org.junit.Test;
import org.testfx.assertions.api.Assertions;
import org.testfx.framework.junit.ApplicationTest;

import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class ClickableButtonTest_JUnit4AssertJ extends ApplicationTest {

    private Button button;

    /**
     * Will be called with {@code @Before} semantics, i. e. before each test method.
     */
    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) {
        button = new Button("click me!");
        button.setOnAction(actionEvent -> button.setText("clicked!"));
        stage.setScene(new Scene(new StackPane(button), 100, 100));
        stage.show();
    }

    @Test
    public void should_contain_button_with_text() {
        Assertions.assertThat(button).hasText("click me!");
    }

    @Test
    public void when_button_is_clicked_text_changes() {
        // when:
        clickOn(".button");

        // then:
        Assertions.assertThat(button).hasText("clicked!");
    }
}

JUnit 5

TestFX uses JUnit5's new extension mechanism via org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtendWith. By using this, implementors are not forced anymore to inherit from ApplicationTest and are free to choose their own super classes.

It does also make use of JUnit5's new dependency injection mechanism. By using this, test methods have access to the FxRobot instance that must be used in order to execute actions within the UI.

JUnit 5 with Hamcrest Matchers

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtendWith;
import org.testfx.api.FxAssert;

@ExtendWith(ApplicationExtension.class)
class ClickableButtonTest_JUnit5Hamcrest {

    private Button button;

    /**
     * Will be called with {@code @Before} semantics, i. e. before each test method.
     *
     * @param stage - Will be injected by the test runner.
     */
    @Start
    private void start(Stage stage) {
        button = new Button("click me!");
        button.setId("myButton");
        button.setOnAction(actionEvent -> button.setText("clicked!"));
        stage.setScene(new Scene(new StackPane(button), 100, 100));
        stage.show();
    }

    /**
     * @param robot - Will be injected by the test runner.
     */
    @Test
    void should_contain_button_with_text(FxRobot robot) {
        FxAssert.verifyThat(button, LabeledMatchers.hasText("click me!"));
        // or (lookup by css id):
        FxAssert.verifyThat("#myButton", LabeledMatchers.hasText("click me!"));
        // or (lookup by css class):
        FxAssert.verifyThat(".button", LabeledMatchers.hasText("click me!"));
    }

    /**

     */
    @Test
    void when_button_is_clicked_text_changes(FxRobot robot) {
        // when:
        robot.clickOn(".button");

        // then:
        FxAssert.verifyThat(button, LabeledMatchers.hasText("clicked!"));

Spock with Hamcrest Matchers

import org.testfx.framework.spock.ApplicationSpec;

class ClickableButtonSpec extends ApplicationSpec {
    @Override
    void init() throws Exception {
        FxToolkit.registerStage { new Stage() }
    }

    @Override
    void start(Stage stage) {
        Button button = new Button('click me!')
        button.setOnAction { button.setText('clicked!') }
        stage.setScene(new Scene(new StackPane(button), 100, 100))
        stage.show()
    }

    @Override
    void stop() throws Exception {
        FxToolkit.hideStage()
    }

    def "should contain button"() {
        expect:
        verifyThat('.button', hasText('click me!'))
    }

    def "should click on button"() {
        when:
        clickOn(".button")

        then:
        verifyThat('.button', hasText('clicked!'))
    }
}

Continuous Integration (CI)

Travis CI

To run TestFX tests as part of your Travis CI build on Ubuntu and/or macOS take the following steps:

Ensure that your unit tests are triggered as part of your build script. This is usually the default case when using Maven or Gradle.

If you wish to test in a headless environment your must add Monocle as a test dependency:

build.gradle

dependencies {
    testCompile "org.testfx:openjfx-monocle:8u76-b04" // jdk-9+181 for Java 9, jdk-11+26 for Java 11
}

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>openjfx-monocle</artifactId>
    <version>8u76-b04</version> <!-- jdk-9+181 for Java 9, jdk-11+26 for Java 11 -->
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Base your Travis configuration on the following. Some different build variations are shown (Glass/AWT robot, Headed/Headless, (Hi)DPI, etc.) adjust the build matrix to your requirements.

.travis.yml

language: java

sudo: false   # Linux OS: run in container

matrix:
  include:
    # Ubuntu Linux (trusty) / Oracle JDK 8 / Headed (AWT Robot)
    - os: linux
      dist: trusty
      jdk: oraclejdk8
      env:
        - _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dtestfx.robot=awt"
    # Ubuntu Linux (trusty) / Oracle JDK 8 / Headed (Glass Robot) / HiDPI
    - os: linux
      dist: trusty
      jdk: oraclejdk8
      env:
        - _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dtestfx.robot=glass -Dglass.gtk.uiScale=2.0"
    # Ubuntu Linux (trusty) / Oracle JDK 8 / Headless
    - os: linux
      dist: trusty
      jdk: oraclejdk8
      env:
        - _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dtestfx.robot=glass -Dtestfx.headless=true -Dprism.order=sw"
    # macOS / Oracle JDK 8 / Headless
    - os: osx
      osx_image: xcode9.4
      jdk: oraclejdk8
      env:
        - _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dtestfx.robot=glass -Dtestfx.headless=true -Dprism.order=sw -Dprism.verbose=true"
    # Headed macOS is not currently possible on Travis.

addons:
  apt:
    packages:
      - oracle-java8-installer

before_install:
  - if [[ "${TRAVIS_OS_NAME}" == linux ]]; then export DISPLAY=:99.0; sh -e /etc/init.d/xvfb start; fi

install: true

before_script:
  - if [[ "${TRAVIS_OS_NAME}" == osx ]]; then brew update; brew cask reinstall caskroom/versions/java8; fi

script:
  - ./gradlew check

before_cache:
  - rm -f  $HOME/.gradle/caches/modules-2/modules-2.lock
  - rm -fr $HOME/.gradle/caches/*/plugin-resolution/
  - rm -f  $HOME/.gradle/caches/*/fileHashes/fileHashes.bin
  - rm -f  $HOME/.gradle/caches/*/fileHashes/fileHashes.lock

cache:
  directories:
    - $HOME/.gradle/caches/
    - $HOME/.gradle/wrapper/
    - $HOME/.m2

Your TestFX tests should now run as part of your Travis CI build.

Appveyor (Windows)

To run TestFX tests as part of your Appveyor build on Windows take the following steps:

Ensure that your unit tests are triggered as part of your build script. This is usually the default case when using Maven or Gradle.

If you wish to test in a headless environment your must add Monocle as a test dependency:

build.gradle

dependencies {
    testCompile "org.testfx:openjfx-monocle:8u76-b04" // jdk-9+181 for Java 9
}

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testfx</groupId>
    <artifactId>openjfx-monocle</artifactId>
    <version>8u76-b04</version> <!-- jdk-9+181 for Java 9 -->
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Base your Appveyor configuration on the following. Some different build variations are shown (Glass/AWT robot, Headed/Headless, (Hi)DPI, etc.) adjust the build matrix to your requirements.

appveyor.yml

version: "{branch} {build}"
environment:

TestFX Legacy: Deprecated

The testfx-legacy subproject is deprecated and no longer supported. It is highly recommended that you switch from using testfx-legacy. If you want to continue using it you should cap the versions of testfx-core and testfx-legacy to 4.0.8-alpha, which was the last released version of testfx-legacy. Using a newer version of testfx-core with an older version of testfx-legacy will very likely break (and does with testfx-core versions past 4.0.10-alpha).

Thanks to all of the contributors of TestFX!
