Test Method Coverage for Dynamic Search Controller

I am new to test writing test methods and was hoping I could figure this one out on my own, but at some point I have to give in! I am getting 48% coverage on this controller. It is based on the dynamic search page provided by Jeff Douglas (http://blog.jeffdouglas.com/2010/07/13/building-a-dynamic-search-page-in-visualforce/). For now I have  place the test method in the controller. Here is the controller with test method:

 

 

public with sharing class ProductSearchController {
 
  // the soql without the order and limit
  private String soql {get;set;}
  // the collection of products to display
  public List<NRProducts__c> products {get;set;}
 
  // the current sort direction. defaults to asc
  public String sortDir {
    get  { if (sortDir == null) {  sortDir = 'asc'; } return sortDir;  }
    set;
  }
 
  // the current field to sort by. defaults to NRCode
  public String sortField {
    get  { if (sortField == null) {sortField = 'name'; } return sortField;  }
    set;
  }
 
  // format the soql for display on the visualforce page
  public String debugSoql {
    get { return soql + ' order by ' + sortField + ' ' + sortDir + ' limit 200'; }
    set;
  }
 
  // init the controller and display some sample data when the page loads
  public ProductSearchController() {
    soql = 'select Name, FBA_Total_Value__c, Total_Qty_Purchased__c,  Create_PO__c, isFBA__c, Vendors__c, VendorID__c, Total_Sold__c, FBA_Inventory__c, Open_Qty__c, Total_Qty__c, Inventory_Burn__c, FBA_Turn__c,   Reorder_Point__c, Reorder__c, Reorder_Amount__c, Reorder_Cost__c  from NRProducts__c where isFBA__c = True';
    runQuery();
  }
 
  // toggles the sorting of query from asc<-->desc
  public void toggleSort() {
    // simply toggle the direction
    sortDir = sortDir.equals('asc') ? 'desc' : 'asc';
    // run the query again
    runQuery();
  }
 
  // runs the actual query
  public void runQuery() {
 
    try {
      products = Database.query(soql + ' order by ' + sortField + ' ' + sortDir + ' limit 200');
    } catch (Exception e) {
      ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.Message(ApexPages.Severity.ERROR, 'Ooops!'));
    }
 
  }
 
  // runs the search with parameters passed via Javascript
  public PageReference runSearch() {
    

    String name = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('name');
    String lastSold = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('lastSold');
    String vendors_id = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('vendors_id');
    String fbaInventory = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('fbaInventory');
    String openQty = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('openQty');
    String totalQty = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('totalQty');
    String inventoryBurn = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('inventoryBurn');
    String fbaTurn = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('fbaTurn');
    String reorderPoint = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('reorderPoint');
    String reorder = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('reorder');
    String reorderAmount = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('reorderAmount');
    String reorderCost = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('reorderCost');    
                      

 
    soql = 'select Name, isFBA__c, Total_Qty_Purchased__c, FBA_Total_Value__c, Create_PO__c, Vendors__c, VendorID__c, Total_Sold__c, FBA_Inventory__c, Open_Qty__c, Total_Qty__c, Inventory_Burn__c, FBA_Turn__c,   Reorder_Point__c, Reorder__c, Reorder_Amount__c, Reorder_Cost__c  from NRProducts__c where isFBA__c = True';

    if (!name.equals(''))

      soql += ' and Reorder_Cost__c >= '+reorderCost+'';
    // run the query again
    runQuery();
 
    return null;

}

       // instantiate the controller
        //ctrl.runSearch();
        System.assert(ctrl.runSearch() == null);

    }
}

 I have color coded based on what the testing shows. Blue = coverage, Red = no coverage.

 

Thank you for your help!

Before you instantiate the controller, you need to instantiate a web page and put parameters into the URL.  Note you have to use the getParameters method to do this.  Then you can instantiate and execute the controller method.

 

 

PageReference pg = Page.[your visualforce page here];
Test.setCurrentPage(pg);
pg.getParameters().put('name', 'test name');
pg.getParameters().put('lastSold', 'test sold');
etc.

Did the posted answer work for you ?  I've been struggling with the same issue with no luck. I saw this post and answer and got excited.

 

I basically have the same code as you do (with a different controller name and different fields) and when I try to save the following test file I get an error "Method does not exist or incorrect signature: ctrl.runSearch()"

 

The test file is:

 

public class test_VisualForcePage {

    static testMethod void myUnitTest() {
 
   
           
           //Use the PageReference Apex class to instantiate a page
           PageReference pageRef = Page.Direct_Account_Page;
           
           //In this case, the Visualforce page named ‘Direct_Account_Page’ is the starting point of this test method.
           Test.setCurrentPageReference(pageRef);
           //Instantiate and construct the controller class. 
          
           pageref.getParameters().put('AccountNumber','10-101');
           pageref.getParameters().put('Product','SMA');
           pageref.getParameters().put('OganizationName','acme');
           DirectAccountController MyPageCon = new DirectAccountController();

          System.assert(ctrl.runSearch() == null);
       }
}

 

The controllwer is:

 

public with sharing class DirectAccountController {
 
  // the soql without the order and limit
  private String soql {get;set;}
  // the collection of DirectAccounts to display
 
  public List<Direct_Account__c> DirectAccounts {get;set;}
 
  // the current sort direction. defaults to asc
  public String sortDir {
    get  { if (sortDir == null) {  sortDir = 'asc'; } return sortDir;  }
    set;
  }
 
  // the current field to sort by. defaults to accountNumber
  public String sortField {
    get  { if (sortField == null) {sortField = 'AccountNumber'; } return sortField;  }
    set;
  }
 
  // format the soql for display on the visualforce page
  public String debugSoql {
    get { return soql + ' order by ' + sortField + ' ' + sortDir + ' limit 20'; }
    set;
  }
 
  // init the controller and display some sample data when the page loads
  public DirectAccountController() {
/*    soql = 'select firstname, lastname, account.name from Direct_Account__c where */
      soql = 'select Account_Number__c, Product__c , Organization_Name__c from Direct_Account__C where account.name != null';
    runQuery();
  }
 
  // toggles the sorting of query from asc<-->desc
  public void toggleSort() {
    // simply toggle the direction
    sortDir = sortDir.equals('asc') ? 'desc' : 'asc';
    // run the query again
    runQuery();
  }
 
  // runs the actual query
  public void runQuery() {
 
    try {
         DirectAccounts = Database.query(soql + ' order by ' + sortField + ' ' + sortDir + ' limit 20');
    } catch (Exception e) {
      ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.Message(ApexPages.Severity.ERROR, 'Ooops!'));
    }

  }
   // runs the search with parameters passed via Javascript
  public PageReference runSearch() {
 
    String AccountNumber = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('AccountNumber');
    String Product = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('Product');
    String OrganizationName = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('OrganizationName');
/*    String technology = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('technology'); */
 
    soql = 'select Account_Number__c, Product__c, Organization_Name__c from Direct_Account__c where Name != null';
    if (!AccountNumber.equals(''))
      soql += ' and Account_Number__c LIKE \''+String.escapeSingleQuotes(AccountNumber)+'%\'';
    if (!Product.equals(''))
      soql += ' and Product__c LIKE \''+String.escapeSingleQuotes(Product)+'%\'';
    if (!OrganizationName.equals(''))
      soql += ' and Organization_Name__c LIKE \''+String.escapeSingleQuotes(OrganizationName)+'%\''; 
/*    if (!technology.equals(''))
      soql += ' and interested_technologies__c includes (\''+technology+'\')';  */
 
    // run the query again
    runQuery();
 
    return null;
  }
 
 
}

Any ideas?

Sorry, a typo in the test method:

I showed: System.assert(ctrl.runSearch() == null);

It is actually: System.assert(MyPageCon.runSearch() == null);

 

I get an error:  Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [DirectAccountController].runSearch()

 

My controller has the runSearch method just as is shown in this thread's otehr code example.

 

I am frustrated that I can't figure this out. I hope someone out there will have an idea.

 

Thanks in advance

For one, change

System.assert(ctrl.runSearch() == null);

 

to

 

System.assert(ctrl.search() == null);

Anyone who has solved this?
