Jpa Respository and its tests - spring-boot

This is more of a question regarding concept rather than an error I am facing.
So here I have two JPA respositories refereing to two tables in database
Teacher - has foreign key reference to departmentid
Depeartment - contains depeartment infos
Now to test the DepartmentRepositoryIntegrationTest I have to delete all the entries of teachers and then the depeartments. I understand I have a foreign key reference to departments so I cant delete any entry inside the department which is being consumed by the Teacher table. But When I was running this test there was nothing saved or inserted in the teachers table still I was getting DataIntergityViolationException. Why was there such enforcement to delete teachers table entries even though it was empty manually???
Couldnt find anything relevant to my doubt.
I am running the tests against the inmemory database like H2.
#SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = RANDOM_PORT)
#RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
#TestPropertySource(properties = {
"spring.datasource.url=jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;loginTimeout=30;",
"spring.datasource.username="random",
"spring.datasource.password="random"
})
public class DepartmentRepositoryIntegrationTest {
#Autowired
private DepartmentRepository departmentRepository;
#Autowired
private FacultyRepository facultyRepository;
#Before
public void setUp() {
departmentRepository.deleteAll();
facultyRepository.deleteAll();
}

How to make DataJpaTest flush save automatically?

I have an Employee entity with the following column:
#Entity
class Employee {
#Column(name = "first_name", length = 14)
private String firstName;
and I have a Spring JPA Repository for it:
#Repository
public interface EmployeeRepository extends CrudRepository<Employee, Integer> {
In test/resources/application.properties I have the following so that I use an in-memory h2 database with tables auto-generated:
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.h2.Driver
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:mem:db;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1
spring.datasource.username=sa
spring.datasource.password=sa
I was expecting this test to fail, since the firstName is longer than what is allowed:
#DataJpaTest
public class EmployeeRepositoryTest {
#Autowired
private EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;
#Test
public void mustNotSaveFirstNameLongerThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setFirstName("koraykoraykoray"); // 15 characters!
employeeRepository.save(employee);
}
}
And I was surprised to see this test was not failing, however the following does fail:
#DataJpaTest
public class EmployeeRepositoryTest {
#Autowired
private EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;
#Test
public void testMustNotSaveFirstNameLongerThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setFirstName("koraykoraykoray"); // 15 characters!
employeeRepository.save(employee);
employeeRepository.findAll();
}
}
with the stacktrace:
Caused by: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLDataException: Value too long for column "FIRST_NAME VARCHAR(14)": "'koraykoraykoray' (15)"; SQL statement:
The only difference is the second test has the additional employeeRepository.findAll(); statement, which forces Hibernate to flush as far as I understand.
This does not feel right to me, I would much rather want the test to fail immediately for save.
I can also have
#Autowired
private TestEntityManager testEntityManager;
and call
testEntityManager.flush();
but again, this does not feel correct either.. How do I make this test fail without any workaround or additional statements?
The easiest option in your case is configure #Transactional annotation, forcing to send database all changes in your tests (it can be used only in specific ones):
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Propagation;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertThrows;
#Transactional(propagation = Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED)
#DataJpaTest
public class EmployeeRepositoryTest {
#Autowired
private EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;
#Test
public void mustNotSaveFirstNameLongerThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setId(1);
employee.setFirstName("koraykoraykoray"); // 15 characters!
assertThrows(DataIntegrityViolationException.class, () -> {
employeeRepository.save(employee);
});
}
#Test
public void mustSaveFirstNameShorterThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setId(1);
employee.setFirstName("koraykor"); // 8 characters!
employeeRepository.save(employee);
}
}
PD: I have added a simple Integer property as PK of Employee entity due to your repository definition.
You can see the results in the following picture:
You could use JpaRepository<T,ID> instead of CrudRepository<T,ID>. Something like:
#Repository
public interface EmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<Employee, Integer>
Then you can use its saveAndFlush() method anywhere you need to send data immediately:
#Test
public void mustNotSaveFirstNameLongerThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setFirstName("koraykoraykoray"); // 15 characters!
employeeRepository.saveAndFlush(employee);
}
And in code where you would like to have optimization you still can use save() method.
Thanks doctore for your answer, I had the similar problem as OP and your solution has helped. I decided to dig a little and figure out why it works, should someone else have this problem.
With #DataJpaTest annotated test class, your class implicitly becomes #Transactional with default propagation type Propagation.REQUIRED. That means every test method is also #Transactional with same default configuration. Now, all CRUD methods in CrudRepository are also #Transactional, but it has nothing to do with #DataJpaTest - they are transactional due to implementation. Whoa, that's a lot of transactions!
As soon as you annotate your whole class (or just a test method) with #Transactional(propagation = Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED), your test method(s) are no longer #Transactional. However, inner methods of your test method(s), that is, CRUD operations from CrudRepository, remain transactional, meaning that they will have their own transaction scopes. Because of that, they will be committed to database immediately after execution, because by default (in Spring Boot, which users HikariCP connection pool), auto commits are turned on. Auto commits happen after every SQL query. And thus tests pass as you'd expect.
I like to visualize things, so here is the visualization of the whole process:
I hope this was helpful. URLs from the diagram:

The #Commit can do the job ( it was added since 4.2)
#Test
#Commit
public void mustNotSaveFirstNameLongerThan14() {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setId(1);
employee.setFirstName("koraykoraykoray"); // 15 characters!
assertThrows(DataIntegrityViolationException.class, () -> {
employeeRepository.save(employee);
});
}

Spring Data JDBC - immutable owner of OneToMany relation

I'm trying out Spring Data JDBC, and I think that immutable entities are the key feature here.
I want to model a one-to-many relationship between Team and Player and have these entities immutable. What I have working right now is:
#Getter
#AllArgsConstructor
#NoArgsConstructor
public class Team {
#Id
#Wither
private Integer id;
private String name;
private List<Player> players;
}
#Value
public class Player {
#Id
#Wither
Integer id;
String name;
public static Player of(String name) {
return new Player(null, name);
}
}
I managed to get a OneToMany relationship working properly for mutable classes. I managed to make it work for immutable Player. However, I can't get Team mapping to work without #NoArgsConstructor, or with #Value instead of what I have right now. I get the weird message as if Spring Data JDBC started seeing different mapping when this constructor is missing:
Caused by: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLSyntaxErrorException: Column "players_id" not found [42122-199]
If anybody tries to recreate that scenario, here's my h2 schema:
create table team (id serial primary key, name varchar);
create table player (id serial primary key, name varchar, team int references team(id), team_key int);
And my Spock test:
#SpringBootTest
class TeamRepositoryTest extends Specification {
#Autowired
TeamRepository teamRepository
def "Context loads"() {
given:
def rick = Player.of("Rick")
def morty = Player.of("Morty")
def team = new Team(null, "Rick and Morty", Arrays.asList(rick, morty))
when:
def savedTeam = teamRepository.save(team)
then:
def savedTeamOpt = teamRepository.findById(savedTeam.id)
Team retrievedTeam = savedTeamOpt.get()
retrievedTeam.id == savedTeam.id
retrievedTeam.name == "Rick and Morty"
retrievedTeam.players.size() == 2
}
}
You hit a bug in Spring Data JDBC: https://jira.spring.io/browse/DATAJDBC-127
Currently entities or collections of entities don't work as constructor arguments.
Create a constructor without these arguments and add setters or if you want to stay immutable withers for them.

Database default field not retrieved when using #Transactional

I have the following simple entity FileRegistry :
#Getter
#Setter
#Entity
#ToString
#Table(name = "file_store")
public class FileRegistry {
#Id
private String name;
/**
* Creation timestamp of the registry
* This value is automatically set by database, so setter method
* has been disabled
*/
#Setter(AccessLevel.NONE)
#Column(insertable = false, updatable = false)
private LocalDateTime creationDate;
}
The following FileRepository DAO:
#Repository
public interface FileRepository extends JpaRepository<FileRegistry, String> { }
and the following Spring Boot test :
#SpringBootTest(classes=PersistTestConfig.class, properties = { "spring.config.name=application,db"})
#ActiveProfiles("test")
#Transactional
public class FileRepositoryTest {
#Autowired
FileRepository fileRepository;
#Test
void insertFileTest() {
assertNotNull(fileRepository, "Error initializing File repository");
// Check registry before insertion
List<FileRegistry> allFiles = fileRepository.findAll();
assertNotNull(allFiles, "Error retrieving files from registry");
assertThat(allFiles.size(), is(0));
// Insert file
FileRegistry fileRegistry = new FileRegistry();
fileRegistry.setName("Test");
fileRepository.save(fileRegistry);
// Check that the insertion was successful
allFiles = fileRepository.findAll();
assertNotNull(allFiles, "Error retrieving files from registry");
assertThat(allFiles.size(), is(1));
assertEquals("File registry name mismatch", "Test", allFiles.get(0).getName());
System.out.println(allFiles.get(0));
}
}
Persistence configuration class defined as follows :
#Configuration
#EnableAutoConfiguration
#EnableTransactionManagement
#EnableJpaRepositories
public class PersistTestConfig {
}
The table file_store defined in H2 as :
CREATE TABLE file_store (name VARCHAR NOT NULL, creation_date TIMESTAMP(3) DEFAULT NOW() NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT file_store_pk PRIMARY KEY (name));
Everything works fine except that when I use #Transactional at test level (mainly to benefit from rollbacks i.e. db cleanup on each test) a null value is fetched for the creationDate field :
FileRegistry(name=Test, creationDate=null)
When I remove #Transactional from the test class, the fetched value contains the date as computed by H2 :
FileRegistry(name=Test, creationDate=2019-03-07T17:08:13.392)
I've tried to flush and merge manually the instance to no avail. To be honest, right now I'm a little bit lost on how #Transactional really works, in fact reading the docs and inspecting the code, the underlying JpaRepository implementation (SimpleJpaRepository) is annotated as #Transactional(readOnly = true).
A little help on this subject would be very appreciated.
Ok, figured it out.
Simply issuing a refresh entityManager.refresh(allFiles.get(0)); solves the issue.
I tested also using Hibernate's #Generated(INSERT) specific annotation in the entity creationDate field and it also worked fine.
By the way I've eventually decided to drop this thing in favor of using Spring Data's JpaAuditing features and annotating the field with #CreatedDate annotation to fill the value instead of relying on DB date (by the way, production-wise, you probably shouldn't rely on DB time). To me this is feels more, let's say, "correct" and springy way of doing things.

Why is JPA query so slow?

I am implementing queries in my web application with JPA repositories. The two main tables I am querying from are FmReportTb and SpecimenTb.
Here are the two entity classes (only important attributes are listed).
//FmReportTb.java
#Entity
#Table(name="FM_REPORT_TB")
public class FmReportTb implements Serializable {
#Column(name="ROW_ID")
private long rowId;
#Column(name="FR_BLOCK_ID")
private String frBlockId;
#Column(name="FR_FULL_NAME")
private String frFullName;
#OneToOne
#JoinColumn(name="SPECIMEN_ID")
private SpecimenTb specimenTb;
FmReportTb has OneToOne relationship with SpecimenTb.
#Entity
#Table(name="SPECIMEN_TB")
public class SpecimenTb implements Serializable {
private String mrn;
#OneToOne(mappedBy="specimenTb", cascade=CascadeType.ALL)
private FmReportTb fmReportTb;
The query I am working on is to find all records in FmReportTb and show a few attributes from FmReportTb plus mrn from SpecimenTb.
Here is my JPA repository for FmReportTb:
#Repository
public interface FmReportRepository extends JpaRepository<FmReportTb, Long> {
#Query("select f from FmReportTb f where f.deleteTs is not null")
public List<FmReportTb> findAllFmReports();
Since, I am only showing part of the attributes from FmReportTb and one attribute from SpecimenTb, I decided to create a Value Object for FmReportTb. The constructor of the VO class assigns attributes from FmReportTb and grabs mrn attribute from SpecimenTb based on the OneToOne relationship. Another reason for using VO is because table FmReportTb has a lot of OneToMany children entities. For this particular query, I don't need any of them.
public class FmReportVO {
private String frBlockId;
private Date frCollectionDate;
private String frCopiedPhysician;
private String frDiagnosis;
private String frFacilityName;
private String frFullName;
private String frReportId;
private String filepath;
private String mrn;
public FmReportVO(FmReportTb fmReport) {
this.frBlockId = fmReport.getFrBlockId();
this.frCollectionDate = fmReport.getFrCollectionDate();
this.frCopiedPhysician = fmReport.getFrCopiedPhysician();
this.frDiagnosis = fmReport.getFrDiagnosis();
this.frFacilityName = fmReport.getFrFacilityName();
this.frFullName = fmReport.getFrFullName();
this.frReportId = fmReport.getFrReportId();
this.mrn = fmReport.getSpecimenTb().getMrn();
}
I implemented findall method in servicebean class to return a list of FmReportTb VOs.
//FmReportServiceBean.java
#Override
public List<FmReportVO> findAllFmReports() {
List<FmReportTb> reports = fmReportRepository.findAllFmReports();
if (reports == null) {
return null;
}
List<FmReportVO> fmReports = new ArrayList<FmReportVO>();
for (FmReportTb report : reports) {
FmReportVO reportVo = new FmReportVO(report);
String filepath = fileLoadRepository.findUriByFileLoadId(report.getFileLoadId().longValue());
reportVo.setFilepath(filepath);
fmReports.add(reportVo);
}
return fmReports;
}
Lastly, my controller looks like this:
#RequestMapping(
value = "/ristore/foundation/",
method = RequestMethod.GET,
produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<List<FmReportVO>> getAllFmReports() {
List<FmReportVO> reports = ristoreService.findAllFmReports();
if (reports == null) {
return new ResponseEntity<List<FmReportVO>>(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
}
return new ResponseEntity<List<FmReportVO>>(reports, HttpStatus.OK);
}
There are about 200 records in the database. Surprisingly, it took almost 2 full seconds to retrieve all the records in JSON. Even though I did not index all the tables, this is way too slow. Similar query takes about probably a few ms on the database directly. Is it because I am using Value Objects or JPA query tends to be this slow?
EDIT 1
This may have to do with the fact that FmReportTb has almost 20 OneToMany entities. Although the fetchmode of these child entities are set to LAZY, JPA Data repository tends to ignore the fetchmode. So I ended up using NamedEntityGraph to specify the attributes EAGER. This next section is added to the head of my FmReportTb entity class.
#Entity
#NamedEntityGraph(
name = "FmReportGraph",
attributeNodes = {
#NamedAttributeNode("fileLoadId"),
#NamedAttributeNode("frBlockId"),
#NamedAttributeNode("frCollectionDate"),
#NamedAttributeNode("frDiagnosis"),
#NamedAttributeNode("frFullName"),
#NamedAttributeNode("frReportId"),
#NamedAttributeNode("specimenTb")})
#Table(name="FM_REPORT_TB")
And then #EntityGraph("FmReportGraph") was added before the JPA repository query to find all records. After doing that, the performance is improved a little bit. Now fetching 1500 records only takes about 10 seconds. However, it still seems too slow given each json object is fairly small.
Answering for the benefit of others with slow JPA queries...
As #Ken Bekov hints in the comments, foreign keys can help a lot with JPA.
I had a couple of tables with a many to one relationship - a query of 100,000 records was taking hours to perform. Without any code changes I reduced this to seconds just by adding a foreign key.
In phpMyAdmin you do this by creating a Relationship from the "many" table to the "one" table. For a detailed explanation see this question: Setting up foreign keys in phpMyAdmin?

Multiple Repositories for the Same Entity in Spring Data Rest

Is it possible to publish two different repositories for the same JPA entity with Spring Data Rest?
I gave the two repositories different paths and rel-names, but only one of the two is available as REST endpoint.
The point why I'm having two repositories is, that one of them is an excerpt, showing only the basic fields of an entity.
The terrible part is not only that you can only have 1 spring data rest repository (#RepositoryRestResource) per Entity but also that if you have a regular JPA #Repository (like CrudRepository or PagingAndSorting) it will also interact with the spring data rest one (as the key in the map is the Entity itself).
Lost quite a few hours debugging random load of one or the other. I guess that if this is a hard limitation of spring data rest at least an Exception could be thrown if the key of the map is already there when trying to override the value.
The answer seems to be: There is only one repository possible per entity.
I ended up using the #Subselect to create a second immutable entity and bound that to the second JpaRepsotory and setting it to #RestResource(exported = false), that also encourages a separation of concerns.
Employee Example
#Entity
#Table(name = "employee")
public class Employee {
#Id
Long id
String name
...
}
#RestResource
public interface EmployeeRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Employee, Long> {
}
#Entity
#Immutable
#Subselect(value = 'select id, name, salary from employee')
public class VEmployeeSummary {
#Id
Long id
...
}
#RestResource(exported = false)
public interface VEmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<VEmployeeSummary, Long> {
}
Context
Two packages in the monolithic application had different requirements. One needed to expose the entities for the UI in a PagingAndSortingRepository including CRUD functions. The other was for an aggregating backend report component without paging but with sorting.
I know I could have filtered the results from the PagingAndSorting Repository after requesting Pageable.unpaged() but I just wanted a Basic JPA repository which returned List for some filters.
So, this does not directly answer the question, but may help solve the underlying issue.
You can only have one repository per entity... however, you can have multiple entities per table; thus, having multiple repositories per table.
In a bit of code I wrote, I had to create two entities... one with an auto-generated id and another with a preset id, but both pointing to the same table:
#Entity
#Table("line_item")
public class LineItemWithAutoId {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(generator = "system-uuid")
#GenericGenerator(name = "system-uuid", strategy = "uuid")
private String id;
...
}
#Entity
#Table("line_item")
public class LineItemWithPredefinedId {
#Id
private String id;
...
}
Then, I had a repository for each:
public interface LineItemWithoutId extends Repository<LineItemWithAutoId,String> {
...
}
public interface LineItemWithId extends Repository<LineItemWithPredefinedId,String> {
...
}
For the posted issue, you could have two entities. One would be the full entity, with getters and setters for everything. The other, would be the entity, where there are setters for everything, but only getters for the fields you want to make public. Does this make sense?
