while trying to update detached entity passed to persist error are getting
kindly help to solve this issue . why its not able to save as updated value while every thing is seems to perfect what could be the reason for failing to update the DB and getting Detached error

You must have to use
sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().update(category);
update not a persist

Spring boot test expecting ConstraintViolationException but received JpaSystemException

Attempting to perform test slicing for JPA layer in spring boot per guide however validation constraints don't seem to fire. My setup is as follows
#SpringBootApplication
public class MyApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(MyApplication.class, args);
}
}
#Configuration
#EnableAutoConfiguration
#EnableJpaRepositories(basePackages = "com.myapp.core.dao")
#EntityScan(basePackages = {"com.myapp.core.entity"})
public class CoreConfig {
}
#Entity
#Table(name = "users")
public class Users implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Id
#NotNull
#Size(min = 1, max = 50)
#Column(name = "username")
private String username;
...
}
public interface UsersDAO extends CrudRepository<Users, String> {
}
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#DataJpaTest
#AutoConfigureTestDatabase(replace=Replace.NONE)
public class UsersDAOIT {
#Autowired
private UsersDAO usersDAO;
private static final String USER_NAME = RandomStringUtils.randomAlphabetic(50);
private static final String PASSWORD = RandomStringUtils.randomAlphabetic(50);
private Users p;
#Before
public void onStartUp() {
p = new Users();
p.setUsername(USER_NAME);
p.setPassword(PASSWORD);
p.setEnabled(Boolean.TRUE);
}
#Test(expected = ConstraintViolationException.class)
public void testSave_NullUsername() {
p.setUsername(null);
usersDAO.save(p);
}
}
With all that setup, the test result is as follows:

I'm having difficulty finding the location where validations are autoconfigured. I do see Hibernate-validator being included as a dependency, even specifying as test scope it doesn't seem to ring the entity through validation before processing the db side of things.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Which is not what was expected, Hibernate validator should catch #NotNull prior to attempting to save without #Id. Further more, have another test that goes through when it shouldn't
#Test(expected = ConstraintViolationException.class)
public void testSave_LongUsername() {
p.setUsername(RandomStringUtils.randomAlphabetic(51));
usersDAO.save(p);
}
EDIT 2:
Sample project

In tests you need to force an EntityManager flush because validation happens in the Hibernate PreInsert event.
So
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#DataJpaTest
#AutoConfigureTestDatabase(replace=Replace.NONE)
public class UsersDAOIT {
#Autowired
private UsersDAO usersDAO;
#PersistenceContext
private EntityManager entityManager;
private static final String USER_NAME = RandomStringUtils.randomAlphabetic(50);
private static final String PASSWORD = RandomStringUtils.randomAlphabetic(50);
private Users p;
#Before
public void onStartUp() {
p = new Users();
p.setUsername(USER_NAME);
p.setPassword(PASSWORD);
p.setEnabled(Boolean.TRUE);
}
#Test(expected = ConstraintViolationException.class)
public void testSave_NullUsername() {
p.setUsername(SOME_EXTRA_LONG_STRING);
usersDAO.save(p);
entityManager.flush();
}
}
And for this reason as well (validation in PreInsert event) your #NotNull validation on the #Id field will never fire either. Ids are generated (or in your case have to be assigned) before insert so they will be created/must be assigned before that.

The JPA exception says it all: you don't use any id generator (#GeneratedValue), hence you must assign the id manually prior to calling save(). This check happens before Bean Validation kicks in.

Spring No Transaction Autocommit

I am using Spring 3 with JPA. The JPA vendor is Hibernate.
When trying to persist data I want to commit the entities to the database with autocommit set to true. I don't want to use the transactions.
I have the following code sample:
#Configuration
public class EntityManagerFactoryConfig {
#Autowired
private HibernateConfig hibernateConfig;
#Autowired
private DataSourceConfig dataSourceConfig;
public EntityManagerFactoryConfig() {
}
private Properties getDefaultJpaProperties() {
Properties jpaProperties = new Properties();
jpaProperties.setProperty("hibernate.show_sql", hibernateConfig.getHibernateShowSQL());
jpaProperties.setProperty("hibernate.dialect", hibernateConfig.getHibernateDialect());
jpaProperties.setProperty("hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", hibernateConfig.getHibernateHbm2DDL());
jpaProperties.setProperty("hibernate.connection.autocommit", "true");
jpaProperties.setProperty("javax.persistence.jdbc.driver", dataSourceConfig.getJdbcDriverClassName());
jpaProperties.setProperty("javax.persistence.jdbc.user", dataSourceConfig.getJdbcUsername());
jpaProperties.setProperty("javax.persistence.jdbc.password", dataSourceConfig.getJdbcPassword());
return jpaProperties;
}
#Bean
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() throws Exception {
LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setDataSource(dataSourceConfig.dataSource());
localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setJpaVendorAdapter(hibernateConfig.jpaVendorAdapter());
Properties jpaProperties = getDefaultJpaProperties();
jpaProperties.setProperty("javax.persistence.jdbc.url", dataSourceConfig.getJdbcUrlDefault());
localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setJpaProperties(jpaProperties);
localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setPersistenceUnitName("defaultpersistenceunit");
return localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean;
}
When setting the hibernate.connection.autocommit to true, Spring throws the following Exception:
javax.persistence.TransactionRequiredException: no transaction is in progress

I don't want to use #Transactional. I just want to commit the data without the use of transactions.
I can't seem to find anything on the Internet.
How is this possible?

Creating a Serializable mock with Mockito error

I'm trying to create a mock object with Mockito that can be serialized. The object is an interface implementation. When this method is called, I receive an object that I want to pass to another object, hence using the doAnswer(...)-method.
This is my code.
InterfaceClass obj = mock(InterfaceClass.class, withSettings().serializable());
doAnswer(new Answer<Object>() {
public Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable {
Object[] args = invocation.getArguments();
//Here I do something with the arguments
}
}).when(obj).someMethod(
any(someObject.class));
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutput out = null;
try {
out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
out.writeObject(obj);
byte[] yourBytes = bos.toByteArray();
} finally {
out.close();
bos.close();
}
As far as I can tell this should be correct (I'm fairly new to Mockito).
But when Serializing my object I get this error:

The invalidInputTestCase class is the class containing the test where I'm using this code. It looks as if the mock object references this TestCase somewhere (can't find it though).
Am I not correctly implementing this or better ideas to mock?

If you want to serialize a mock everything needs to be serializable, including the Answer.
And actually that's what the JDK is telling you :
java.io.NotSerializableException: com.trust1t.ocs.signcore.test.InvalidInputTestCase$1
where InvalidInputTestCase$1 is the name of the anonymous Answer.
To make it serializable you have to create a class implementing Answer and Serializable.
Also note that serialization across classloaders (JVM) is not yet released, at the moment you can only serialize and deserialize a mock in the same classloader.

How to implement Redis Multi-Exec by using Spring-data-Redis

All Spring Configuration is written properly. Non-Multi-Exec Redis operations work perfectly.
#Autowired
#Qualifier("stringRedisTemplate")
StringRedisTemplate template;
void test(){
template.multi();
template.boundValueOps("somevkey").increment(1);
template.boundZSetOps("somezkey").add("zvalue", timestamp);
template.exec();
}
After running above code through Junit Test, Exceptions are thrown.

I check redis server, the above two commands have been executed and the result is correct. So the problem comes at last line of the code (template.exec()). When underlying JedisClient try to get multibulk response from EXEC, it seems to throw NullPointerException
I use spring-data-redis 1.0.0.RELEASE
Thanks for help.

The reason for the exception is probably that the Spring template implementation does not reuse the same connection for .multi() and .exec(). You can try to use execute() via a callback:
private RedisTemplate template = ...;
template.execute(
new RedisCallback() {
#Override
public Object doInRedis(RedisConnection connection)
throws DataAccessException {
connection.multi();
//do whatever you need, like deleting and repopulating some keys
connection.expire(CHANNEL_KEY.getBytes(), EXPIRE_SECS);
connection.exec();
return null;
}
}
);

template.setEnableTransactionSupport(true);
maybe you can use this to enable transaction

Piotr is right. You need to put it into SessionCallback.
Here is a quick summary of doing transactions with Spring Data Redis:
https://github.com/eric-wu/dashboard/wiki/3.-Redis-Transactions-via-Spring-Data-Redis
For your case, scroll down and look at "Optimistic locking using WATCH, MULTI, and EXEC".

Look at the implementatin of org.springframework.data.redis.support.collections.CollectionUtils.rename(K, K, RedisOperations<K, ?>)
and read about transaction details here
static <K> void rename(final K key, final K newKey, RedisOperations<K, ?> operations) {
operations.execute(new SessionCallback<Object>() {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public Object execute(RedisOperations operations) throws DataAccessException {
do {
operations.watch(key);
if (operations.hasKey(key)) {
operations.multi();
operations.rename(key, newKey);
} else {
operations.multi();
}
} while (operations.exec().isEmpty());
return null;
}
});
}
Note : While loop is important
