I am working on a spring boot based webservice with following structure:
Controller (REST) –> Services –> Repositories (as suggested in some tutorials).
My Database Connection (JPA/Hibernate/MySQL) is defined in a @Configuration class. (see below)
Now I'd like to write simple tests for methods in my Service classes, but I don't really understand how to load ApplicationContext into my test classes and how to mock the JPA / Repositories.
This is how far I came:
My service class
@Component
public class SessionService {
@Autowired
private SessionRepository sessionRepository;
public void MethodIWantToTest(int i){
};
[...]
}
My test class:
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(loader = AnnotationConfigContextLoader.class)
public class SessionServiceTest {
@Configuration
static class ContextConfiguration {
@Bean
public SessionService sessionService() {
return new SessionService();
}
}
@Autowired
SessionService sessionService;
@Test
public void testMethod(){
[...]
}
}
But I get following exception:
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
Error creating bean with name 'sessionService': Injection of autowired
dependencies failed; nested exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not
autowire field: private com.myApp.SessionRepository
com.myApp.SessionService.sessionRepository; nested exception is
org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No
qualifying bean of type [com.myApp.SessionRepository] found for
dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire
candidate for this dependency. Dependency annotations:
{@org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired(required=true)}
For completeness: here's my @Configuration for jpa:
@Configuration
@EnableJpaRepositories(basePackages={"com.myApp.repositories"})
@EnableTransactionManagement
public class JpaConfig {
@Bean
public ComboPooledDataSource dataSource() throws PropertyVetoException, IOException {
...
}
@Bean
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory(DataSource dataSource, JpaVendorAdapter jpaVendorAdapter) {
...
}
@Bean
public JpaVendorAdapter jpaVendorAdapter() {
...
}
@Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory) {
...
}
@Bean
public PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor exceptionTranslation(){
...
}
}

use @SpringBootTest and @RunWith(SpringRunner.class) to load the context
