Spring MockMvc - How to test delete request of REST controller?

I need to test my controller methods including a delete method. Here is partial controller code:

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/foo")
public class FooController {

    @Autowired
    private FooService fooService;

    // other methods which works fine in tests

    @RequestMapping(path="/{id}", method = RequestMethod.DELETE)
    public void delete(@PathVariable Long id) {
        fooService.delete(id);
    }    
}

And here is my test:

@InjectMocks
private FooController fooController;

@Before
public void setUp() {
    this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup(fooController)
.setControllerAdvice(new ExceptionHandler()).alwaysExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.content().contentType("application/json;charset=UTF-8")).build();
}

@Test
public void testFooDelete() throws Exception {
    this.mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders
            .delete("/api/foo")
            .param("id", "11")
            .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .andExpect(status().isOk());
}

Test finish with failure because incorrect status code:

java.lang.AssertionError: Status Expected :200 Actual :400

In console log I also found this:

2017-12-11 20:11:01 [main] DEBUG o.s.t.w.s.TestDispatcherServlet - DispatcherServlet with name '' processing DELETE request for [/api/foo]
2017-12-11 20:11:01 [main] DEBUG o.s.w.s.m.m.a.RequestMappingHandlerMapping - Looking up handler method for path /api/foo
2017-12-11 20:11:01 [main] DEBUG o.s.w.s.m.m.a.ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolver - Resolving exception from handler [null]: org.springframework.web.HttpRequestMethodNotSupportedException: Request method 'DELETE' not supported

Can you tell me how to fix it? Thanks.

Your target URI is: /api/foo/11 based on this root: /api/foo and this path variable: /{id}.

When using MockMvc you set path variables (aka URI variables) like so:

delete(uri, uriVars)

More details in the Javadocs.

So, your test should read:

@Test
public void testFooDelete() throws Exception {
    this.mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders
            .delete("/api/foo/{id}", "11")
            .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .andExpect(status().isOk());
}

Or alternatively:

@Test
public void testFooDelete() throws Exception {
    this.mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders
            .delete("/api/foo/11")
            .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
            .andExpect(status().isOk());
}
