Description

I expected that when I set attributes on the MockHttpSession from MockHttpRequest in StrutsTestCase they would be available in the invocation ActionContext.

Instead, getActionProxy does not set a SessionMap on the invocation ActionContext. This affects testing of Actions that use SessionAware and other ServletConfigInterceptor Interfaces.

Workaround:

public void testSomething() throws Exception {     
  ActionProxy proxy = getActionProxy("/something");
  proxy.getInvocation().getInvocationContext().setSession(new SessionMap(request));
}

Tiny patch to fix it:

> import org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap;

>         invocationContext.setSession(new SessionMap(request));
