  • Method Details

    • getDispatcherServlet

      public org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet getDispatcherServlet()
      Return the underlying DispatcherServlet instance that this MockMvc was initialized with.

      This is intended for use in custom request processing scenario where a request handling component happens to delegate to the DispatcherServlet at runtime and therefore needs to be injected with it.

      For most processing scenarios, simply use perform(org.springframework.test.web.servlet.RequestBuilder), or if you need to configure the DispatcherServlet, provide a DispatcherServletCustomizer to the MockMvcBuilder.
