How to run junit test case after bootRun (server startup) using gradle - spring

In my spring boot application I have junit test case. I implemented with application listener which will do certain task after server start up. Now I need to run the Junit test case after the bootRun. Basically the application runs like this., I am using gradle build script.
compile->build (running junit test cases)->bootRun
Can we run the test case after bootRun?
Thanks in advance

Debugger, #SpringBootTest, and Gradle

I'm new to Spring Boot and Gradle and cannot figure out how to suspend JUnit tests and connect to them with a debugger.
I invoke the automated tests on the command line gradlew build. What I'd like is so the execution to pause wen it reaches the test task and wait for a debugger to connect.
The JUnit test classes are annotated like this:
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
#ActiveProfiles("test")
#AutoConfigureMockMvc
I have tried adding the JVM arguments for debugging to the gradle.properties file and I still can't get it to suspend, much less listen on a port for the debugger. I'm not sure what information to provide you -- ask me in the comments for files, code, or settings.

#Omid. Thank you for the link. The solution was simple.
UPDATE: Do not use gradlew build. Use the test task instead.
gradlew test --debug-jvm

Maven Verify Starting and Stopping the Spring Test Runner on Each class

I am having a Spring Boot application with around ~500 Tests (Unit and mostly Integration).
When i start running the tests in IntelliJ with second click -> Run all Tests - tests run in around 10-15mins.
When i try to run the tests with "mvn verify -P itest" in IntelliJ terminal, the execution time is around an hour. This is because this command starts and stops the Spring Test Runner Server on every class (which is not my desired result).
The IntelliJ second click -> Run all Tests starts it only once.
Our Jenkins Job is running the tests with "mvn verify -P itest", so my question is how can i change this behavior, to start and stop the Test Runner only once (with this "mvn verify -P itest" command).
itest is the profile that we have in our pom.xml which includes the classes that contain integration tests (using maven failsafe plugin)
Here are the annotations of our base abstract Integration Test class
#RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest(classes = MainApplication.class, webEnvironment = WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
I found this article which could by similar to my problem, but this does not explain the behavior that IntelliJ gives me.
Reset Spring-Boot During Integration Tests
Thanks a lot in advance
I found out why this was happening. There was a setting in my pom file which stated
'reuseForks' maven failsafe property to be false.
I changed it to be true and now it is working fine.
Intellij works in the same way - it is reusing the forks for all the tests.

Running API tests in Teamcity build step

I have a Spring Boot Maven app. There is a bunch of API tests using RestAssured, inside the project. These tests are not marked as #SpringBootTest, therefore when running them, the context of the application is not raising so to make tests pass the application must be up and running before.
I'm creating a Teamcity build in which I want to:
Start the app
Run RestAssured tests
Create an artifact
I'm using an Agent with maven installed.
The question is:
How can I create a build step where I run the application on a defined port and then run api tests
against it?
What I've tried is creating such build steps:
Command line: mvn spring-boot:run & sleep 50s mvn test
Maven step/command line: mvn clean package -DskipTests
I thought the spring boot application will start and tests will be ready to start after some time. On successful step 1 I create an artifact.
The problem is that the build step is never exited because of spring boot app running (blocking terminal).

Running selenium unit tests with Spring Boot

I have some integration tests that use Selenium and the HtmlUnitDriver to verify my web app behaves correctly from the browser. In IntelliJ, I'm able to run ./gradlew bootRun to start my embedded web server, and then run my Selenium tests manually.
The tests run as expected.
However, I'm wondering what the best strategy is to run these in an automated fashion on my CI Server (TeamCity in this case). Simply running bootRun doesn't quite work since the task runs until it gets terminated.
Should I create a script that runs bootRun, and then I can terminate gradle somehow after the tests complete? I'd also like to use my application.properties file I have in src/test/resources instead of src/main/resources which bootRun uses normally.

Maven build - run an application then perform JUnit tests

As part of my build process, I would like maven to start a program and then execute JUNIT tests in the same phase, which is the mvn test phase.
I am using Spring Boot as well as the Spring Boot Maven plugin. As you know Spring boot has an embedded tomcat container. So I can just run my application on this tomcat server by just running as an application in eclipse.
For example when I run mvn test, I would like my application to run FIRST and then have the tests executed.
I have seen the exec-maven plugin being used and that you specify the phase in the maven build cycle that you want the application to run. The earliest phase that it allows you to specify is the test phase.
But I'm not sure if the Application will run immediately before the tests?
How do I specify in my POM file that I want the application to run BEFORE the test phase?
