Annotation Interface CsvFileSource

@Target({ANNOTATION_TYPE,METHOD}) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Documented @API(status=STABLE, since="5.7") @ArgumentsSource(org.junit.jupiter.params.provider.CsvFileArgumentsProvider.class) public @interface CsvFileSource
@CsvFileSource is an ArgumentsSource which is used to load comma-separated value (CSV) files from one or more classpath resources or files().

The lines of these CSV files will be provided as arguments to the annotated @ParameterizedTest method. Any line beginning with a # symbol will be interpreted as a comment and will be ignored.

  • Element Details

    • resources

      String[] resources
      The CSV classpath resources to use as the sources of arguments; must not be empty unless files() is non-empty.
      Default:
      {}

    • files

      String[] files
      The CSV files to use as the sources of arguments; must not be empty unless resources() is non-empty.
      Default:
      {}

    • encoding

      String encoding
      The encoding to use when reading the CSV files; must be a valid charset.

      Defaults to "UTF-8".

      Defaults to "\n".

      Default:
      "\n"

    • delimiter

      char delimiter
      The column delimiter character to use when reading the CSV files.

      This is an alternative to delimiterString() and cannot be used in conjunction with delimiterString().

      Defaults implicitly to ',', if neither delimiter attribute is explicitly set.

      Default:
      '\u0000'

    • delimiterString

      String delimiterString
      The column delimiter string to use when reading the CSV files.

      This is an alternative to delimiter() and cannot be used in conjunction with delimiter().

      Defaults implicitly to ",", if neither delimiter attribute is explicitly set.

      Since:
      5.6
      Default:
      ""

    • numLinesToSkip

      int numLinesToSkip
      The number of lines to skip when reading the CSV files.

      Typically used to skip header lines.

      Defaults to 0.

      5.1
      Default:
      0

    • emptyValue

      String emptyValue
      The empty value to use when reading the CSV files.

      This value replaces quoted empty strings read from the input.

      Default:
      ""

    • nullValues

      String[] nullValues
      A list of strings that should be interpreted as null references.

      For example, you may wish for certain values such as "N/A" or "NIL" to be converted to null references.

      Please note that unquoted empty values will always be converted to null references regardless of the value of this nullValues attribute; whereas, a quoted empty string will be treated as an emptyValue().

      Defaults to {}.

      Since:
