This chapter covers Spring’s support for integration testing and best practices for unit testing.
The Spring team advocates test-driven development (TDD). The Spring team has found that the
correct use of inversion of control (IoC) certainly does make both unit and integration testing
easier (in that the presence of setter methods and appropriate constructors on classes makes
them easier to wire together in a test without having to set up service locator registries and
similar structures).

1. Introduction to Spring Testing

Testing is an integral part of enterprise software development. This chapter focuses on the value
added by the IoC principle to unit testing and on the benefits of the Spring Framework’s support
for integration testing. (A thorough treatment of testing in the enterprise is beyond the scope of
this reference manual.)

2. Unit Testing
Dependency injection should make your code less dependent on the container than it would be
with traditional Java EE development. The POJOs that make up your application should be
testable in JUnit or TestNG tests, with objects instantiated by using the  new  operator, without
Spring or any other container. You can use mock objects (in conjunction with other valuable
testing techniques) to test your code in isolation. If you follow the architecture recommendations
for Spring, the resulting clean layering and componentization of your codebase facilitate easier
unit testing. For example, you can test service layer objects by stubbing or mocking DAO or
repository interfaces, without needing to access persistent data while running unit tests.

True unit tests typically run extremely quickly, as there is no runtime infrastructure to set up.
Emphasizing true unit tests as part of your development methodology can boost your
productivity. You may not need this section of the testing chapter to help you write effective unit
tests for your IoC-based applications. For certain unit testing scenarios, however, the Spring

7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

Framework provides mock objects and testing support classes, which are described in this
chapter.

2.1. Mock Objects

Spring includes a number of packages dedicated to mocking:

Environment

JNDI

Servlet API

Spring Web Reactive

2.1.1. Environment
The  org.springframework.mock.env  package contains mock implementations of
the  Environment  and  PropertySource  abstractions (see Bean Definition
Profiles and  PropertySource  Abstraction).  MockEnvironment  and  MockPropertySource  are useful
for developing out-of-container tests for code that depends on environment-specific properties.

2.1.2. JNDI
The  org.springframework.mock.jndi  package contains a partial implementation of the JNDI SPI,
which you can use to set up a simple JNDI environment for test suites or stand-alone
applications. If, for example, JDBC  DataSource  instances get bound to the same JNDI names in
test code as they do in a Java EE container, you can reuse both application code and
configuration in testing scenarios without modification.

The mock JNDI support in the  org.springframework.mock.jndi  package is officially

deprecated as of Spring Framework 5.2 in favor of complete solutions from third parties
such as Simple-JNDI.

2.1.3. Servlet API

The  org.springframework.mock.web  package contains a comprehensive set of Servlet API mock
objects that are useful for testing web contexts, controllers, and filters. These mock objects are
targeted at usage with Spring’s Web MVC framework and are generally more convenient to use

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 6/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

than dynamic mock objects (such as EasyMock) or alternative Servlet API mock objects (such
as MockObjects).

Since Spring Framework 5.0, the mock objects in  org.springframework.mock.web  are based
on the Servlet 4.0 API.

The Spring MVC Test framework builds on the mock Servlet API objects to provide an integration
testing framework for Spring MVC. See MockMvc.

2.1.4. Spring Web Reactive

The  org.springframework.mock.http.server.reactive  package contains mock implementations
of  ServerHttpRequest  and  ServerHttpResponse  for use in WebFlux applications.
The  org.springframework.mock.web.server  package contains a mock  ServerWebExchange  that
depends on those mock request and response objects.

Both  MockServerHttpRequest  and  MockServerHttpResponse  extend from the same abstract base
classes as server-specific implementations and share behavior with them. For example, a mock
request is immutable once created, but you can use the  mutate()  method
from  ServerHttpRequest  to create a modified instance.

In order for the mock response to properly implement the write contract and return a write
completion handle (that is,  Mono<Void> ), it by default uses a  Flux  with  cache().then() , which
buffers the data and makes it available for assertions in tests. Applications can set a custom write
function (for example, to test an infinite stream).

The WebTestClient builds on the mock request and response to provide support for testing
WebFlux applications without an HTTP server. The client can also be used for end-to-end tests
with a running server.

2.2. Unit Testing Support Classes

Spring includes a number of classes that can help with unit testing. They fall into two categories:

General Testing Utilities

Spring MVC Testing Utilities

2.2.1. General Testing Utilities

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 7/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

The  org.springframework.test.util  package contains several general purpose utilities for use
in unit and integration testing.

ReflectionTestUtils  is a collection of reflection-based utility methods. You can use these
methods in testing scenarios where you need to change the value of a constant, set a non-
public  field, invoke a non- public  setter method, or invoke a non- public  configuration or
lifecycle callback method when testing application code for use cases such as the following:

ORM frameworks (such as JPA and Hibernate) that condone  private  or  protected  field
access as opposed to  public  setter methods for properties in a domain entity.

Spring’s support for annotations (such as  @Autowired ,  @Inject , and  @Resource ), that
provide dependency injection for  private  or  protected  fields, setter methods, and
configuration methods.

Use of annotations such as  @PostConstruct  and  @PreDestroy  for lifecycle callback methods.

AopTestUtils  is a collection of AOP-related utility methods. You can use these methods to
obtain a reference to the underlying target object hidden behind one or more Spring proxies. For
example, if you have configured a bean as a dynamic mock by using a library such as EasyMock
or Mockito, and the mock is wrapped in a Spring proxy, you may need direct access to the
underlying mock to configure expectations on it and perform verifications. For Spring’s core AOP
utilities, see  AopUtils  and  AopProxyUtils .

2.2.2. Spring MVC Testing Utilities

The  org.springframework.test.web  package contains  ModelAndViewAssert , which you can use
in combination with JUnit, TestNG, or any other testing framework for unit tests that deal with
Spring MVC  ModelAndView  objects.

Unit testing Spring MVC Controllers

To unit test your Spring MVC  Controller  classes as POJOs,

use  ModelAndViewAssert  combined with  MockHttpServletRequest ,  MockHttpSession , and
so on from Spring’s Servlet API mocks. For thorough integration testing of your Spring MVC
and REST  Controller  classes in conjunction with
your  WebApplicationContext  configuration for Spring MVC, use the Spring MVC Test
Framework instead.

3. Integration Testing
This section (most of the rest of this chapter) covers integration testing for Spring applications. It
includes the following topics:

Overview

Goals of Integration Testing

JDBC Testing Support

Annotations

Spring TestContext Framework

MockMvc

3.1. Overview
It is important to be able to perform some integration testing without requiring deployment to your
application server or connecting to other enterprise infrastructure. Doing so lets you test things
such as:

The correct wiring of your Spring IoC container contexts.

Data access using JDBC or an ORM tool. This can include such things as the correctness of
SQL statements, Hibernate queries, JPA entity mappings, and so forth.

The Spring Framework provides first-class support for integration testing in the  spring-
test  module. The name of the actual JAR file might include the release version and might also
be in the long  org.springframework.test  form, depending on where you get it from (see
the section on Dependency Management for an explanation). This library includes
the  org.springframework.test  package, which contains valuable classes for integration testing
with a Spring container. This testing does not rely on an application server or other deployment
environment. Such tests are slower to run than unit tests but much faster than the equivalent
Selenium tests or remote tests that rely on deployment to an application server.

Unit and integration testing support is provided in the form of the annotation-driven Spring
TestContext Framework. The TestContext framework is agnostic of the actual testing framework
in use, which allows instrumentation of tests in various environments, including JUnit, TestNG,
and others.

3.2. Goals of Integration Testing

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 9/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

Spring’s integration testing support has the following primary goals:

To manage Spring IoC container caching between tests.

To provide Dependency Injection of test fixture instances.

To provide transaction management appropriate to integration testing.

To supply Spring-specific base classes that assist developers in writing integration tests.

The next few sections describe each goal and provide links to implementation and configuration
details.

3.2.1. Context Management and Caching

The Spring TestContext Framework provides consistent loading of
Spring  ApplicationContext  instances and  WebApplicationContext  instances as well as caching
of those contexts. Support for the caching of loaded contexts is important, because startup time
can become an issue — not because of the overhead of Spring itself, but because the objects
instantiated by the Spring container take time to instantiate. For example, a project with 50 to 100
Hibernate mapping files might take 10 to 20 seconds to load the mapping files, and incurring that
cost before running every test in every test fixture leads to slower overall test runs that reduce
developer productivity.

Test classes typically declare either an array of resource locations for XML or Groovy
configuration metadata — often in the classpath — or an array of component classes that is used
to configure the application. These locations or classes are the same as or similar to those
specified in  web.xml  or other configuration files for production deployments.

By default, once loaded, the configured  ApplicationContext  is reused for each test. Thus, the
setup cost is incurred only once per test suite, and subsequent test execution is much faster. In
this context, the term “test suite” means all tests run in the same JVM — for example, all tests run
from an Ant, Maven, or Gradle build for a given project or module. In the unlikely case that a test
corrupts the application context and requires reloading (for example, by modifying a bean
definition or the state of an application object) the TestContext framework can be configured to
reload the configuration and rebuild the application context before executing the next test.

See Context Management and Context Caching with the TestContext framework.

3.2.2. Dependency Injection of Test Fixtures

When the TestContext framework loads your application context, it can optionally configure
instances of your test classes by using Dependency Injection. This provides a convenient
mechanism for setting up test fixtures by using preconfigured beans from your application
https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 10/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

context. A strong benefit here is that you can reuse application contexts across various testing
scenarios (for example, for configuring Spring-managed object graphs, transactional
proxies,  DataSource  instances, and others), thus avoiding the need to duplicate complex test
fixture setup for individual test cases.

As an example, consider a scenario where we have a class ( HibernateTitleRepository ) that

implements data access logic for a  Title  domain entity. We want to write integration tests that
test the following areas:

The Spring configuration: Basically, is everything related to the configuration of

the  HibernateTitleRepository  bean correct and present?

The Hibernate mapping file configuration: Is everything mapped correctly and are the correct
lazy-loading settings in place?

The logic of the  HibernateTitleRepository : Does the configured instance of this class
perform as anticipated?

See dependency injection of test fixtures with the TestContext framework.

3.2.3. Transaction Management

One common issue in tests that access a real database is their effect on the state of the
persistence store. Even when you use a development database, changes to the state may affect
future tests. Also, many operations — such as inserting or modifying persistent data — cannot be
performed (or verified) outside of a transaction.

The TestContext framework addresses this issue. By default, the framework creates and rolls
back a transaction for each test. You can write code that can assume the existence of a
transaction. If you call transactionally proxied objects in your tests, they behave correctly,
according to their configured transactional semantics. In addition, if a test method deletes the
contents of selected tables while running within the transaction managed for the test, the
transaction rolls back by default, and the database returns to its state prior to execution of the
test. Transactional support is provided to a test by using a  PlatformTransactionManager  bean
defined in the test’s application context.

If you want a transaction to commit (unusual, but occasionally useful when you want a particular
test to populate or modify the database), you can tell the TestContext framework to cause the
transaction to commit instead of roll back by using the  @Commit  annotation.

See transaction management with the TestContext framework.

3.2.4. Support Classes for Integration Testing

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 11/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

The Spring TestContext Framework provides several  abstract  support classes that simplify the
writing of integration tests. These base test classes provide well-defined hooks into the testing
framework as well as convenient instance variables and methods, which let you access:

The  ApplicationContext , for performing explicit bean lookups or testing the state of the
context as a whole.

A  JdbcTemplate , for executing SQL statements to query the database. You can use such
queries to confirm database state both before and after execution of database-related
application code, and Spring ensures that such queries run in the scope of the same
transaction as the application code. When used in conjunction with an ORM tool, be sure to
avoid false positives.

In addition, you may want to create your own custom, application-wide superclass with instance
variables and methods specific to your project.

See support classes for the TestContext framework.

3.3. JDBC Testing Support

The  org.springframework.test.jdbc  package contains  JdbcTestUtils , which is a collection of
JDBC-related utility functions intended to simplify standard database testing scenarios.
Specifically,  JdbcTestUtils  provides the following static utility methods.

countRowsInTable(..) : Counts the number of rows in the given table.

countRowsInTableWhere(..) : Counts the number of rows in the given table by using the
provided  WHERE  clause.

deleteFromTables(..) : Deletes all rows from the specified tables.

deleteFromTableWhere(..) : Deletes rows from the given table by using the

provided  WHERE  clause.

dropTables(..) : Drops the specified tables.

AbstractTransactionalJUnit4SpringContextTests  and  AbstractTransactionalTestNGSpringC

ontextTests  provide convenience methods that delegate to the aforementioned methods
in  JdbcTestUtils .

The  spring-jdbc  module provides support for configuring and launching an embedded
database, which you can use in integration tests that interact with a database. For details,
see Embedded Database Support and Testing Data Access Logic with an Embedded
Database.

3.4. Annotations
This section covers annotations that you can use when you test Spring applications. It includes
the following topics:

Spring Testing Annotations

Standard Annotation Support

Spring JUnit 4 Testing Annotations

Spring JUnit Jupiter Testing Annotations

Meta-Annotation Support for Testing

3.4.1. Spring Testing Annotations

The Spring Framework provides the following set of Spring-specific annotations that you can use
in your unit and integration tests in conjunction with the TestContext framework. See the
corresponding javadoc for further information, including default attribute values, attribute aliases,
and other details.

Spring’s testing annotations include the following:

@BootstrapWith

@ContextConfiguration

@WebAppConfiguration

@ContextHierarchy

@ActiveProfiles

@TestPropertySource

@DynamicPropertySource

@DirtiesContext

@TestExecutionListeners

@RecordApplicationEvents

@Commit

@Rollback

@BeforeTransaction

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 13/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

@AfterTransaction

@Sql

@SqlConfig

@SqlMergeMode

@SqlGroup

@BootstrapWith

@BootstrapWith  is a class-level annotation that you can use to configure how the Spring
TestContext Framework is bootstrapped. Specifically, you can use  @BootstrapWith  to specify a
custom  TestContextBootstrapper . See the section on bootstrapping the TestContext
framework for further details.

@ContextConfiguration

@ContextConfiguration  defines class-level metadata that is used to determine how to load and
configure an  ApplicationContext  for integration tests.
Specifically,  @ContextConfiguration  declares the application context resource  locations  or the
component  classes  used to load the context.

Resource locations are typically XML configuration files or Groovy scripts located in the
classpath, while component classes are typically  @Configuration  classes. However, resource
locations can also refer to files and scripts in the file system, and component classes can
be  @Component  classes,  @Service  classes, and so on. See Component Classes for further
details.

The following example shows a  @ContextConfiguration  annotation that refers to an XML file:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration("/test-config.xml")

class XmlApplicationContextTests {

// class body...

Referring to an XML file.

The following example shows a  @ContextConfiguration  annotation that refers to a class:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration(classes = TestConfig.class)

class ConfigClassApplicationContextTests {

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 14/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

// class body...

Referring to a class.

As an alternative or in addition to declaring resource locations or component classes, you can

use  @ContextConfiguration  to declare  ApplicationContextInitializer  classes. The following
example shows such a case:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration(initializers = CustomContextInitializer.class)

class ContextInitializerTests {

// class body...

Declaring an initializer class.

You can optionally use  @ContextConfiguration  to declare the  ContextLoader  strategy as well.
Note, however, that you typically do not need to explicitly configure the loader, since the default
loader supports  initializers  and either resource  locations  or component  classes .

The following example uses both a location and a loader:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration(locations = "/test-context.xml", loader = CustomContextLoader.class)

class CustomLoaderXmlApplicationContextTests {

// class body...

Configuring both a location and a custom loader.

@ContextConfiguration  provides support for inheriting resource locations or configuration

classes as well as context initializers that are declared by superclasses or enclosing
classes.

See Context Management,  @Nested  test class configuration, and

the  @ContextConfiguration  javadocs for further details.

@WebAppConfiguration

https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/testing.html#testing 15/17
7/31/22, 5:50 PM Testing

@WebAppConfiguration  is a class-level annotation that you can use to declare that
the  ApplicationContext  loaded for an integration test should be a  WebApplicationContext . The
mere presence of  @WebAppConfiguration  on a test class ensures that
a  WebApplicationContext  is loaded for the test, using the default value
of  "file:src/main/webapp"  for the path to the root of the web application (that is, the resource
base path). The resource base path is used behind the scenes to create a  MockServletContext ,
which serves as the  ServletContext  for the test’s  WebApplicationContext .

The following example shows how to use the  @WebAppConfiguration  annotation:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration

@WebAppConfiguration

class WebAppTests {

// class body...

To override the default, you can specify a different base resource path by using the
implicit  value  attribute. Both  classpath:  and  file:  resource prefixes are supported. If no
resource prefix is supplied, the path is assumed to be a file system resource. The following
example shows how to specify a classpath resource:

Java Kotlin

@ContextConfiguration

@WebAppConfiguration("classpath:test-web-resources")

class WebAppTests {

// class body...

Specifying a classpath resource.

Note that  @WebAppConfiguration  must be used in conjunction with  @ContextConfiguration , either

within a single test class or within a test class hierarchy. See the  @WebAppConfiguration  javadoc
for further details.

@ContextHierarchy

@ContextHierarchy  is a class-level annotation that is used to define a hierarchy

of  ApplicationContext  instances for integration tests.  @ContextHierarchy  should be declared
with a list of one or more  @ContextConfiguration  instances, each of which defines a level in the
context hierarchy. The following examples demonstrate the use of  @ContextHierarchy  within a
single test class ( @ContextHierarchy  can also be used within a test class hierarchy):
