Class RestoreSystemProperties

java.lang.Object

org.junit.rules.ExternalResource

org.junit.contrib.java.lang.system.RestoreSystemProperties

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.junit.rules.TestRule

public class RestoreSystemProperties
extends org.junit.rules.ExternalResource

The RestoreSystemProperties rule undoes changes of system properties when the test finishes (whether it passes or fails).

Let's assume the system property YourProperty has the value YourValue. Now run the test

   public void YourTest {
     @Rule
     public final TestRule restoreSystemProperties = new RestoreSystemProperties();

     @Test
     public void overrideProperty() {
       System.setProperty("YourProperty", "other value");
       assertEquals("other value", System.getProperty("YourProperty"));
     }
   }
 

After running the test, the system property YourProperty has the value YourValue again.
