@Deprecated
public abstract class AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests
extends AbstractSingleSpringContextTests

Convenient superclass for JUnit 3.8 based tests depending on a Spring context. The test instance itself is populated by Dependency Injection.

Really for integration testing, not unit testing. You should not normally use the Spring container for unit tests: simply populate your POJOs in plain JUnit tests!

This supports two modes of populating the test:

• Via Setter Dependency Injection. Simply express dependencies on objects in the test fixture, and they will be satisfied by autowiring by type.
• Via Field Injection. Declare protected variables of the required type which match named beans in the context. This is autowire by name, rather than type. This approach is based on an approach originated by Ara Abrahmian. Setter Dependency Injection is the default: set the populateProtectedVariables property to true in the constructor to switch on Field Injection.

1.1.1

AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME

public static final int AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME

Deprecated.

Constant that indicates autowiring bean properties by name.

See Also:

Constructor Detail

AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests

public AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests()

Deprecated.

Default constructor for AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests.

AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests

public AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests(String name)

Deprecated.

Constructor for AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests with a JUnit name.

Parameters:

name - the name of this text fixture

Method Detail

setPopulateProtectedVariables

public final void setPopulateProtectedVariables(boolean populateFields)

Deprecated.

Set whether to populate protected variables of this test case. Default is false.

isPopulateProtectedVariables

public final boolean isPopulateProtectedVariables()

Deprecated.

Return whether to populate protected variables of this test case.

setAutowireMode

public final void setAutowireMode(int autowireMode)

Deprecated.

Set the autowire mode for test properties set by Dependency Injection.

The default is AUTOWIRE_BY_TYPE. Can be set to AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME or AUTOWIRE_NO instead.

See Also:

AUTOWIRE_BY_TYPE, AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME, AUTOWIRE_NO

getAutowireMode

public final int getAutowireMode()

Deprecated.

Return the autowire mode for test properties set by Dependency Injection.

setDependencyCheck

public final void setDependencyCheck(boolean dependencyCheck)

Deprecated.

Set whether or not dependency checking should be performed for test properties set by Dependency Injection.

The default is true, meaning that tests cannot be run unless all properties are populated.

isDependencyCheck

public final boolean isDependencyCheck()

Deprecated.

Return whether or not dependency checking should be performed for test properties set by Dependency Injection.

prepareTestInstance

protected void prepareTestInstance()
                            throws Exception

Deprecated.

Prepare this test instance, injecting dependencies into its protected fields and its bean properties.

Note: if the ApplicationContext for this test instance has not been configured (e.g., is null), dependency injection will naturally not be performed, but an informational message will be written to the log.

Overrides:

prepareTestInstance in class AbstractSingleSpringContextTests

Throws:

Exception - in case of preparation failure

See Also:

injectDependencies()

injectDependencies

protected void injectDependencies()
                           throws Exception

Deprecated.

Inject dependencies into 'this' instance (that is, this test instance).

The default implementation populates protected variables if the appropriate flag is set, else uses autowiring if autowiring is switched on (which it is by default).

Override this method if you need full control over how dependencies are injected into the test instance.

Throws:

Exception - in case of dependency injection failure

IllegalStateException - if the ApplicationContext for this test instance has not been configured
