Building models for Tests

You can build a model using the TestModelBuilder class

private final TestModelBuilder modelBuilder = new TestModelBuilder();

private ComponentComposite baseModel() {
  return modelBuilder.buildModel(
      component("testComp",
          dataElement("City")));
}

To build a Component model, you can use the buildModel(spec) method:

modelBuilder.buildModel(
    component("testComp",
      dataElement("City")));

You can also build a Component and select a DataElement with the buildModelAndFind(spec, selector) method:

modelBuilder.buildModelAndFind(
    component("testComp",
      dataElement("City")),
    dataElement("testComp::City"));

Alternatively, you can pass an ApplicationSpec to build an Application model:

modelBuilder.buildModel(
    application("testApp",
      component("testComp",
        dataElement("City"))));

The TestModelBuilder uses the Onion Spec API to define the test models.
