Writing a unit test for Play websockets

I am working on a Scala + Play application utilizing websockets. I have a simple web socket defined as such:

def indexWS =  WebSocket.using[String] { request =>

val out = Enumerator("Hello!")
val in = Iteratee.foreach[String](println).map { _ =>
  println("Disconnected")
}


(in,out)
}

I have verified this works using Chrome's console. The issue I'm having is trying to write a unit test for this. Currently I have this:

"send awk for websocket connection" in {
  running(FakeApplication()){
    val js = route(FakeRequest(GET,"/WS")).get

    status(js) must equalTo (OK)
    contentType(js) must beSome.which(_ == "text/javascript")
  }
}

However, when running my tests in play console, I receive this error, where line 35 corresponds to this line 'val js = route(FakeRequest(GET,"/WS")).get':

NoSuchElementException: None.get (ApplicationSpec.scala:35)

I have not been able to find a good example of unit testing scala/play websockets and am confused on how to properly write this test.

Did you find any solution to your problem ? I am currently trying to test the same kind of thing in Play 2, and it seems that a basic FakeRequest return a result that contains nothing.Bluet
Same here! Found a solution? The answere from @anquegi is not accepted which indicates that it couldn't help mutch.Deadman

Inspired by answer from bruce-lowe, here is the alternative example with Hookup:

import java.net.URI
import io.backchat.hookup._
import org.specs2.mutable._
import play.api.test._
import scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer

class ApplicationSpec extends Specification {

  "Application" should {

    "Test websocket" in new WithServer(port = 9000) {
      val hookupClient = new DefaultHookupClient(HookupClientConfig(URI.create("ws://localhost:9000/ws"))) {
        val messages = ListBuffer[String]()

        def receive = {
          case Connected =>
            println("Connected")

          case Disconnected(_) =>
            println("Disconnected")

          case JsonMessage(json) =>
            println("Json message = " + json)

          case TextMessage(text) =>
            messages += text
            println("Text message = " + text)
        }

        connect() onSuccess {
          case Success => send("Hello Server")
        }
      }

      hookupClient.messages.contains("Hello Client") must beTrue.eventually
    }

  }

}

The example assumed the websocket actor would reply with "Hello Client" text.

To include the library, add this line to libraryDependencies in build.sbt:

"io.backchat.hookup" %% "hookup" % "0.4.2"

A bit late to answer this one, but in case its useful, here is how I wrote a test for my Websockets. It uses a library from here (https://github.com/TooTallNate/Java-WebSocket)

import org.specs2.mutable._
import play.api.test.Helpers._
import play.api.test._

class ApplicationSpec extends Specification {

"Application" should {

    "work" in {
      running(TestServer(9000)) {

        val clientInteraction = new ClientInteraction()

        clientInteraction.client.connectBlocking()
        clientInteraction.client.send("Hello Server")

        eventually {
          clientInteraction.messages.contains("Hello Client")
        }
      }  
    }
  }
}

And a little utility class to store all messages / events (I'm sure you can enhance it yourself to meet your needs)

import java.net.URI
import org.java_websocket.client.WebSocketClient
import org.java_websocket.drafts.Draft_17
import org.java_websocket.handshake.ServerHandshake
import collection.JavaConversions._
import scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer

class ClientInteraction {

  val messages = ListBuffer[String]()

  val client = new     WebSocketClient(URI.create("ws://localhost:9000/wsWithActor"),
    new Draft_17(), Map("HeaderKey1" -> "HeaderValue1"), 0) {

    def onError(p1: Exception) {
      println("onError")
    }

    def onMessage(message: String) {
      messages += message
      println("onMessage, message = " + message)
    }

    def onClose(code: Int, reason: String, remote: Boolean) {                     
      println("onClose")
    }

    def onOpen(handshakedata: ServerHandshake) {
      println("onOpen")
    }
  }
}

This is in my SBT file

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  ws,
  "org.java-websocket" % "Java-WebSocket" % "1.3.0",
  "org.specs2" %% "specs2-core" % "3.7" % "test"
)

( There is a sample program here https://github.com/BruceLowe/play-with-websockets with a test )

I think That you can check this site it has a pretty good example about testing websockets with Spec
