How to mock ResultSetMetaData?

[abhi_kum]

Hi all,
I need to mock ResultSetMetaData for testing my JUnit test cases. We need to mock the methods ResultSetMetaData.getColumnCount() and ResultSetMetaData.getColumnName(i). Please help me if any of you have come across such requirement.

Thanks and regards,
Abhisek.

Welcome to DevX

By "mock" I assume you mean run in a test environment, correct?

Don't you have a test web server set up in your shop? This, typically, is how we test pages prior to moving them to our production web server.

Thanx for the quick reply. Ya. It is a test environment. I wanna test the method using JUnit. Please correct me if I am wrong, but as far as i know, we do not need a server (web/app) to be running while executing the JUnit test cases. I would like to quote here that the method to be tested is a factory method, not a web page. e.g.

class Factory extends SuperClass{
runTest(ResultSet) {
callOtherMethod(ResultSet);
}
}

class SuperClass {
callOtherMethod(ResultSet) {
ResultSetMetaData rsMeta = ResultSet.getMetaData();
rsMeta.getColumnCount();
rsMeta.getColumnName(i);
}
}

I have already mocked the ResultSet successfully. But how to mock ResultSetMetaData is the primary issue now. I hope I am more clear now.
