I believe this question to be general in nature, even though I mention the Spring framework here.
I've been working with the Spring framework, and one of the things I've seen a lot of is code like this:
The spring framework will map these values in a config.yaml file...
server:
url: http://someUrl
port: 8080
user: user
password: secret
to the following class...
@ConfigurationProperties("server")
public class ServerConfig {
private String url;
private Integer port;
private String user;
private String password;
//getters, setters...
}
My point is, is that objects get instantiated at run time based on a configuration file.
My question is, when unit testing, should I incorporate configuration files in my tests, or should all setup and configuration happen in code?
I seem to think that unit tests should be deterministic and not rely on dependencies like a configuration file for setup. But if the configuration file is part of the tests, then maybe that's OK?
