Spring Kafka integration test Error while writing to highwatermark file

Question

I'm writing integration test using spring-kaka-2.2.0 in spring boot application, I'm nearly succeeded still my test case return true but still I see multiple error after that.

Test Config

@EnableKafka

    return new EmbeddedKafkaBroker(1,false,2,"test-events");
}


@Bean

    Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<>();
    props.put(ProducerConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, embeddedKafkaBroker().getBrokersAsString());

@Bean("kafkaListenerContainerFactory")

     ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<String, Professor> factory = new ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<>();
     factory.setConsumerFactory(createConsumerFactory());
     factory.setBatchListener(true);
     factory.getContainerProperties().setAckMode(AckMode.BATCH);
     return factory;
 }

@Bean
public StringJsonMessageConverter converter() {
    return new StringJsonMessageConverter();
}

@Bean
public Listener listener() {
    return new Listener();
}

public class Listener {
    public final CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);

    @Getter
    public List<Professor> list;

    @KafkaListener(topics = "test-events", containerFactory = "kafkaListenerContainerFactory")
    public void listen1(List<Professor> foo) {

        list=foo;
        this.latch.countDown();
       }
    }

}

Test class

@EnableKafka
@SpringBootTest(classes = { KafkaProducerConfigTest.class })
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
public class KafkaProducerServiceTest {

@Autowired
private KafkaConsumerService kafkaConsumerService;

@Autowired
private Listener listener;

@Test
public void testReceive() throws Exception {
    Professor professor = new Professor("Ajay", new Department("social", 1234));
    List<Professor> pro = new ArrayList<>();
    pro.add(professor);
    System.out.println(pro);
    kafkaConsumerService.professor(pro);
    System.out.println("The professor object is sent to kafka -----------------------------------");
    listener.latch.await();
    List<Professor> result = listener.getList();
    Professor resultPro = result.get(0);
    System.out.println(result);
    System.out.println(resultPro);

    assertEquals(pro.get(0).getName(), result.get(0).getName());

     }

 }

Test case testReceive() is passing but still with multiple error messages

Answer 1

I had similar issue and with help of Gary Russell answer I solved it by pointing log dir to gradle build output dir log.dir=out/embedded-kafka or in case of maven log.dir=target/embedded-kafka.

The following code snippet shows how to do it using @EmbeddedKafka.

@ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.NONE, classes = {Application.class})
@EmbeddedKafka(
        topics = "topic",
        partitions = 1,
        controlledShutdown = true,
        brokerProperties={
                "log.dir=out/embedded-kafka"
        })
@TestPropertySource(
        properties = {
                "spring.kafka.bootstrap-servers=${spring.embedded.kafka.brokers}"
        })
public class OutboxEventsTest {
...
}

Answer 2

Do you actually have permissions to write to /var/folders/s3 ...?

You can override the location with

@Bean
public EmbeddedKafkaBroker embeddedKafkaBroker() {
    return new EmbeddedKafkaBroker(1,false,2,"test-events")
        .brokerProperties(Collections.singletonMap(KafkaConfig.LogDirProp(), "/tmp/foo"));
}
