Class StepRunner

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.batch.test.StepRunner

public class StepRunner
extends java.lang.Object

Utility class for executing steps outside of a Job. This is useful in end to end testing in order to allow for the testing of a step individually without running every Step in a job.

• launchStep(Step step): Launch the step with new parameters each time. (The current system time will be used)
• launchStep(Step step, JobParameters jobParameters): Launch the specified step with the provided JobParameters. This may be useful if your step requires a certain parameter during runtime.

It should be noted that any checked exceptions encountered while running the Step will wrapped with RuntimeException. Any checked exception thrown will be due to a framework error, not the logic of the step, and thus requiring a throws declaration in clients of this class is unnecessary.
