How to disable quartz in unit tests ? #116
Description
Hi,
I am using quartz org.grails.plugins:quartz:2.0.13 with grails 3.3.14.
My quartz config is as follows:
quartz:
autoStartup: true
jdbcStore: true
waitForJobsToCompleteOnShutdown: false
exposeSchedulerInRepository: false
props:
scheduler:
skipUpdateCheck: true
jobStore:
tablePrefix: 'QRTZ_'
misfireThreshold: 60000
maxMisfiresToHandleAtATime: 2
clusterCheckinInterval: 5000
class: 'org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.JobStoreTX'
driverDelegateClass: 'org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.StdJDBCDelegate'
isClustered: true
useProperties: false
threadPool:
threadCount: 4
class: 'org.quartz.simpl.SimpleThreadPool'
threadPriority: 1
plugin:
shutdownhook:
class: 'org.quartz.plugins.management.ShutdownHookPlugin'
cleanShutdown: true
triggerHistory:
class: 'org.quartz.plugins.history.LoggingTriggerHistoryPlugin'
jobHistory:
class: 'org.quartz.plugins.history.LoggingJobHistoryPlugin'
Now, i want to disable quartz for test environment. For that i did:
environments:
test:
quartz:
autoStartup: false
jdbcStore: false
in application.yml file.
But it gives me error:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'quartzScheduler': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.quartz.SchedulerConfigException: DataSource name not set.
Caused by: org.quartz.SchedulerConfigException: DataSource name not set.
I tried setting
environments:
test:
quartz:
pluginEnabled: false
But then it gives me
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot get property 'group' on null object
at grails.plugins.quartz.QuartzJob$Trait$Helper.schedule(QuartzJob.groovy:58)

Quartz only runs in tests where there's a running spring boot application. This means it has to run in integration tests if you're testing scheduling. I haven't seen these failures in the latest version so I'm going to close this. We can reopen if you can provide an example project.
