Unit Testing for Apex InBound Email Service

hello All,

 

Here I'm again with some un-coverage issue for Apex In-BoundEmailService class in sfdc.

 

Here is myInbound emailservice class-

 

global class inBoundEmail implements Messaging.InboundEmailHandler
{
   global Messaging.InboundEmailResult handleInboundEmail(Messaging.InboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope envelope)
   {
        Messaging.InboundEmailResult result = new Messaging.InboundEmailresult();
        String subToCompare = 'Create Contact';

        if(email.subject.equalsIgnoreCase(subToCompare))
        {
            Contact c = new Contact();
            c.Email=email.fromAddress;
            
            // capture phone number and city also from incoming email.
            // Splits each line by the terminating newline character  
            // and looks for the position of the phone number and city 
            String[] emailBody = email.plainTextBody.split('\n', 0);
            c.LastName=emailBody[0].substring(0);
            c.Phone = emailBody[1].substring(0);
            c.Title = emailBody[2].substring(0);
                       
            insert c;
            
            // Save attachments, if any
            if (email.textAttachments != null)
            {
            for(Messaging.Inboundemail.TextAttachment tAttachment : email.textAttachments)
            {
            Attachment attachment = new Attachment();

            attachment.Name = tAttachment.fileName;
            attachment.Body = Blob.valueOf(tAttachment.body);
            attachment.ParentId = c.Id;
            insert attachment;
            }
            
            }

            //Save any Binary Attachment
            
            if (email.binaryAttachments != null)
            {
            for(Messaging.Inboundemail.BinaryAttachment bAttachment : email.binaryAttachments) {
            Attachment attachment = new Attachment();

            attachment.Name = bAttachment.fileName;
            attachment.Body = bAttachment.body;
            attachment.ParentId = c.Id;
            insert attachment;
            }
           } 
        }

        result.success = true;
        return result;
             
   }
   }

Thisis the Test Class which is creating no error but it's not covering all test conditions.

 

//Test Method for main class
   
   static testMethod void TestinBoundEmail()
   {
     // create a new email and envelope object
     
   Messaging.InboundEmail email = new Messaging.InboundEmail() ;
   Messaging.InboundEnvelope env = new Messaging.InboundEnvelope();
   
   // setup the data for the email
   
  email.subject = 'Test Job Applicant';
  email.fromAddress = 'someaddress@email.com';
  
  // add an Binary attachment
  
  Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment attachment = new Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment();
  attachment.body = blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
  attachment.fileName = 'textfileone.txt';
  attachment.mimeTypeSubType = 'text/plain';
  email.binaryAttachments = new Messaging.inboundEmail.BinaryAttachment[] { attachment };
 
  // add an Text atatchment
  
  Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment attachmenttext = new Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment();
  attachment.body = blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
  attachment.fileName = 'textfiletwo.txt';
  attachment.mimeTypeSubType = 'texttwo/plain';
  email.textAttachments =   new Messaging.inboundEmail.TextAttachment[] { attachmenttext };
 
  // call the email service class and test it with the data in the testMethod
  inBoundEmail  testInbound=new inBoundEmail ();
  testInbound.handleInboundEmail(email, env);
    
   // create a contact data
   
    Contact testContact= new Contact();
    testContact.Email='someaddress@email.com';
    testContact.LastName='lastname';
    testContact.Phone='1234567234';
    testContact.Title='hello';
    insert testContact;
    
    system.debug('insertedcontact id===>' +testContact.Id);
   
   // Create Attachmenat data
   
  Attachment attachmnt =new Attachment();
  attachmnt.name='textfileone.txt';
  attachmnt.body =blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
  attachmnt.ParentId =testContact.Id;
  insert  attachmnt ;
   
   
   }
   

 

Could any one please make me correct in this case.

 

I tried to put all conditions and test data still it's creating problem.

 

Thanks for your valuable suggestions.

 

Thanks & regards,

Hi,

 

There are 2 mistakes done by you in writing test method.

I have solved those 2 and now the below code will give 100% coverage for you.

 

Find the Main class code

 

global class inBoundEmail implements Messaging.InboundEmailHandler
{
   global Messaging.InboundEmailResult handleInboundEmail(Messaging.InboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope envelope)
   {
        Messaging.InboundEmailResult result = new Messaging.InboundEmailresult();
        String subToCompare = 'Create Contact';

       if(email.subject.equalsIgnoreCase(subToCompare))
        {
            Contact c = new Contact();
            c.Email=email.fromAddress;
            
            // capture phone number and city also from incoming email.
            // Splits each line by the terminating newline character  
            // and looks for the position of the phone number and city 
            String[] emailBody = email.plainTextBody.split('\n', 0);
            c.LastName=emailBody[0].substring(0);
            c.Phone = emailBody[1].substring(0);
            c.Title = emailBody[2].substring(0);
                       
            insert c;
            
            // Save attachments, if any
            if (email.textAttachments != null)
            {
            for(Messaging.Inboundemail.TextAttachment tAttachment : email.textAttachments)
            {
            Attachment attachment = new Attachment();

            attachment.Name = tAttachment.fileName;
            attachment.Body = Blob.valueOf(tAttachment.body);
            attachment.ParentId = c.Id;
            insert attachment;
            }
            
            }

            //Save any Binary Attachment
            
            if (email.binaryAttachments != null)
            {
            for(Messaging.Inboundemail.BinaryAttachment bAttachment : email.binaryAttachments) {
            Attachment attachment = new Attachment();

            attachment.Name = bAttachment.fileName;
            attachment.Body = bAttachment.body;
            attachment.ParentId = c.Id;
            insert attachment;
            }
           } 
        }

        result.success = true;
        return result;
             
   }
}

 And the Updated Test Method

 

//Test Method for main class
   
   static testMethod void TestinBoundEmail()
   {
       // create a new email and envelope object
       Messaging.InboundEmail email = new Messaging.InboundEmail() ;
       Messaging.InboundEnvelope env = new Messaging.InboundEnvelope();
       
       // setup the data for the email
      email.subject = 'Create Contact';
      email.fromAddress = 'someaddress@email.com';
      email.plainTextBody = 'email body\n2225256325\nTitle';
      
      // add an Binary attachment
      Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment attachment = new Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment();
      attachment.body = blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
      attachment.fileName = 'textfileone.txt';
      attachment.mimeTypeSubType = 'text/plain';
      email.binaryAttachments = new Messaging.inboundEmail.BinaryAttachment[] { attachment };
      
      
  
      // add an Text atatchment
  
      Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment attachmenttext = new Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment();
      attachmenttext.body = 'my attachment text';
      attachmenttext.fileName = 'textfiletwo3.txt';
      attachmenttext.mimeTypeSubType = 'texttwo/plain';
      email.textAttachments =   new Messaging.inboundEmail.TextAttachment[] { attachmenttext };
      
      
      // call the email service class and test it with the data in the testMethod
      inBoundEmail  testInbound=new inBoundEmail ();
      testInbound.handleInboundEmail(email, env);
    
     
   
   }

 

Above code will give 100 coverage.

Let me know Still you face any problem.

Hello,

 

Below line are not covered.

 

 Contact c = new Contact();

 45	   attachment.Name = bAttachment.fileName;
 46	   attachment.Body = bAttachment.body;
 47	   attachment.ParentId = c.Id;

These are the lines which are not going to covered.

Thnx Hari.

 

I tried with below mentioned change-

 

 email.plainTextBody='email body\n2225256325\nTitle';

 

but still same problem.

 

Could you please help me what is the another change(in2 changes).

 

Why we did not insert any Contact data and Attachment data in it.

 

Suggested test class still giving 22%, code coverage.

 

static testMethod void TestinBoundEmail()
   {
     // create a new email and envelope object
     
   Messaging.InboundEmail email = new Messaging.InboundEmail() ;
   Messaging.InboundEnvelope env = new Messaging.InboundEnvelope();
   
   // setup the data for the email
   
  email.subject = 'Test Job Applicant';
  email.fromAddress = 'someaddress@email.com';
  email.plainTextBody='email body\n2225256325\nTitle';
 
  // add an Binary attachment
  Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment attachment = new Messaging.InboundEmail.BinaryAttachment();
  attachment.body = blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
  attachment.fileName = 'textfileone.txt';
  attachment.mimeTypeSubType = 'text/plain';
  email.binaryAttachments = new Messaging.inboundEmail.BinaryAttachment[] { attachment };
  
  
  
 // add an Text atatchment
  
  Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment attachmenttext = new Messaging.InboundEmail.TextAttachment();
  attachment.body = blob.valueOf('my attachment text');
  attachment.fileName = 'textfiletwo.txt';
  attachment.mimeTypeSubType = 'texttwo/plain';
  email.textAttachments =   new Messaging.inboundEmail.TextAttachment[] { attachmenttext };
  
 
      
  // call the email service class and test it with the data in the testMethod
  inBoundEmail  testInbound=new inBoundEmail ();
  testInbound.handleInboundEmail(email, env);
  
   
   
   }

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks & regards,

Hi,

 

There is problem with the Instance of Test Attachment.

and you dont need to write creation of contact in test method.

 

Just take the Back up of your code and copy, paste my Complete Test method code.

It will solve your problem.

jaanvivekjaanvivek

Thnx, it worked fine.

 

I was also trying to write same test code but it was not giving desired results.

 

When i replaced it with your code it worked fine.

 

 

Thanks & regards,

JaanVivek

Your test code works perfectly HariDinesh!

Can someone comment on what was wrong with the code & what was fixed?  I'm trying to learn how to fish for myself here, not just get handed fish off of the internet.
