===== Streaming Responses ===== Streaming Responses
The best way to test streaming responses such as Server-Sent Events is through the You can use `WebTestClient` to test <<testing/testing-webtestclient.adoc#webtestclient-stream,streaming responses>>
<<WebTestClient>> which can be used as a test client to connect to a `MockMvc` instance such as Server-Sent Events. However, `MockMvcWebTestClient` doesn't support infinite
to perform tests on Spring MVC controllers without a running server. For example: streams because there is no way to cancel the server stream from the client side.
To test infinite streams, you'll need to
[source,java,indent=0,subs="verbatim,quotes",role="primary"] <<testing/testing-webtestclient.adoc#webtestclient-server-config,bind to>> a running server,
.Java or when using Spring Boot,

WebTestClient client = MockMvcWebTestClient.bindToController(new SseController()).build();
FluxExchangeResult<Person> exchangeResult = client.get()
.uri("/persons")
.exchange()
.expectStatus().isOk()
.expectHeader().contentType("text/event-stream")
.returnResult(Person.class);
// Use StepVerifier from Project Reactor to test the streaming response
StepVerifier.create(exchangeResult.getResponseBody())
.expectNext(new Person("N0"), new Person("N1"), new Person("N2"))
.expectNextCount(4)
.consumeNextWith(person -> assertThat(person.getName()).endsWith("7"))
.thenCancel()
.verify();

`WebTestClient` can also connect to a live server and perform full end-to-end integration
tests. This is also supported in Spring Boot where you can
