Sonar reports Add at least one assertion to this test case with MockWebServiceClient

[Alexandre_MEYER]

Hi,

I’m using MockWebServiceClient provided by springframework’s artifact spring-ws-test to run tests on SOAP webservices.
It provides its own class to make assertions like this:

mockWebServiceClient
            .sendRequest(RequestCreators.withSoapEnvelope(requestPayload))
            .andExpect(ResponseMatchers.noFault())
            .andExpect(ResponseMatchers.soapEnvelope(responsePayload));

Sonar states that I need to “Add at least one assertion to this test case” so I get several CodeSmells where I should not.
Can it be changed in future updates of the “Sonar Way” quality profile so that it sees it as a normal assertion?

I have been using, MockMvc for REST testing in other projects, which provides kind of the same assertions method, and Sonar handles those normally.

Thanks.
