This is the very short program which explains how to read the xml/propery files presents inside the src/test/resources folder in your spring boot project.
Reading xml file from src/test/resources:
Below code reads the file from src/test/resources/my_sample_xml.xml file content and just prints in the console.
@SpringBootTest public class XmlPropertyRead{ @Test public void testXmlAttribute() throws Exception { Path relPath = Paths.get("src", "test", "resources", "my_sample_xml.xml"); String content = null; try { content =Files.lines(relPath).collect(Collectors.joining(System.lineSeparator())); System.out.println(content); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } assertTrue(true); } }
