Using Spring 3.1.2, JUnit 4.10.0 and quite new for both versions. I'm having a problem in that I cannot get annotation-based autoinstallation to work.
Below are two samples, one of which does not use annotations, which works fine. And the second is an annotation that does not work, and I cannot find a reason. I pretty often followed spring -mvc-test samples.
IN
package com.company.web.api; // imports public class ApiTests { @Test public void testApiGetUserById() throws Exception { ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("/com/company/web/api/ApiTests-context.xml"); UserManagementService userManagementService = (UserManagementService) ctx.getBean("userManagementService"); ApiUserManagementController apiUserManagementController = new ApiUserManagementController(userManagementService); MockMvc mockMvc = standaloneSetup(apiUserManagementController).build(); // The actual test mockMvc.perform(get("/api/user/0").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)).andExpect(status().isOk()); } }
Failure , because userManagementService is null, not auto-validating:
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class) @ContextConfiguration // should default to ApiTests-context.xml in same package public class ApiTests { @Autowired UserManagementService userManagementService; private MockMvc mockMvc; @Before public void setup(){ // SetUp never gets called?! } @Test public void testGetUserById() throws Exception { // !!! at this point, userManagementService is still null - why? !!! ApiUserManagementController apiUserManagementController = new ApiUserManagementController(userManagementService); mockMvc = standaloneSetup(apiUserManagementController).build(); // The actual test mockMvc.perform(get("/api/user/0").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)).andExpect(status().isOk()); } }
Note that both of the above test classes must use the same context configuration, and userManagementService is defined here.
ApiTests-context.xml:

and the UserManagementService interface (interface), as well as UserManagementServiceImpl, has the @Service annotation.
Two minor questions / observations: setup () is never called, although it does have an @Before annotation. In addition, I noticed that my test methods are not executed / are not recognized if they do not start with the name "test", which is not the case, although with all the spring -mvc-test samples that I saw.

Update:
The problem only occurs when running tests with maven; this is normal when I run a test from my IDE (IntelliJ IDEA).
