How to disable crsf protection in @WebFluxTest?

Question

Why am I receiving a 403 FORBIDDEN for the following test?

@RestController
public class MyServlet {
    @PostMapping("/")
    public Mono<String> accept(Authentication authentication) {}
}


@WebFluxTest(MyServlet.class)
@WithMockUser
public class MyServletTest {
    @Autowired
    private WebTestClient webClient;

    @Test
    public void test() {
        webClient.post().url("/")
            .exchange()
            .expectStatus().isOk();
    }
}

Result:

java.lang.AssertionError: Status expected:<200 OK> but was:<403 FORBIDDEN>

> POST /
> WebTestClient-Request-Id: [1]
> Content-Type: [application/json]

CSRF Token has been associated to this client

As far as I know, @WebFluxTest disables csrf. So why is it complaining?

Answer 1

webClient.mutateWith(csrf()).post()...;

Answer 2

This is happening because you probably have spring-boot-starter-security in your classpath. You need to create a config:

@Configuration
@EnableWebFluxSecurity
public class WebFluxSecurityConfig {
  @Bean
  public SecurityWebFilterChain springSecurityFilterChain(ServerHttpSecurity http) {
    return http.csrf().disable().build();
  }
}

and import it into your test with

@Import(WebFluxSecurityConfig.class)

Apparently the SecurityConfig is not loaded by default in @WebFluxTest.
