Writing the Test method

The complete test method is shown as follows:

    @Test 
    public void testWelcomeView() throws Exception { 
      this.mockMvc 
      .perform(get("/welcome-view") 
      .accept(MediaType.parseMediaType( 
      "application/html;charset=UTF-8"))) 
      .andExpect(view().name("welcome")); 
    }

A few important things to note are as follows:

• get("/welcome-model-view"): This executes the get request to the specified URL
• view().name("welcome"): This uses Result Matcher to check whether the view name returned is as specified
