CMSForce Test Code Errors-The Object API name is not correct

I ran all the Apex Unit Tests and 5 CMSForce classes are failing.  They all come from the trigger checkObjectAPIName with the error "The Object API name is not correct."  I believe it is not the code itself but some data in the system causing the problem.  However, I'm not sure how to research "this happens when the object's API name doesn't exist, or has been removed from the profile access settings, Typically when admin's don't setup the webform editor correctly"

Thanks

 

trigger checkObjectAPIName on Web_Form__c (before insert, before update) {

  //Map that holds all the object names and tokens in your org
  Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();

  for(Web_Form__c form:Trigger.New) {
        //just for other tests, provide a bypass to this one
        if(form.Object_Name__c.contains('testbypassx')) continue;
        //get a reference to the token related to the object referenced in the webform
        SObjectType sot = gd.get(form.Object_Name__c);
        //instantiate an object of this type
        try {
          SObject sobjectInstance = sot.newSObject();
        }
        //this happens when the object's API name doesn't exist, or has been removed from the profile access settings
        //Typically when admin's don't setup the webform editor correctly
        catch(System.NullPointerException ex) {
          form.addError('The Object API name is not correct.');          
        }

It seems SObjectType sot = gd.get(form.Object_Name__c);
didnot return the right value.

Why not just use
SObjectType sot = gd.get('Web_Form__c');

Can you please post here the full error? 

 

Thanks,

Here are portions of the log files of the 5 test classes that are failing.  CMSForce is a package so I'm not sure if I should change the code.

Seems the problem is in that try/catch block. There is a comment :

//this happens when the object's API name doesn't exist, or has been removed from the profile access settings
        //Typically when admin's don't setup the webform editor correctly

Have you setup the webform editor correctly?(whatever that means) Check the CMSForce documentation for that... My guess you have to setup somewhere the object name(that Object_Name__c field) for the sObject that you want to use the form for.

 

You could remove the try/catch to see exactly what error it throws. 

You could also add some debug statements to see the values of the variables. Like:

           
         SObjectType sot = gd.get(form.Object_Name__c);
        System.debug('sot has this value: ' + sot);
        //instantiate an object of this type
        try {
          SObject sobjectInstance = sot.newSObject();
        }
//Typically when admin's don't setup the webform editor correctly catch(System.NullPointerException ex) {
 System.debug('it crashed w this exception: ' + ex.getMessage()); form.addError('The Object API name is not correct.'); }

Hope this helps,

Adi

That is what I thought too and was my next step.  I will try and see what the debug statements produce.

We just ran into this problem and were able to resolve it.  The issue was these tests rely on a table called "Test".  During cleanup we had deleted this table thinking it was just some dum test table someone created.  After we undeleted this table we were able to deploy our change sets.
