I first did not mention what was the key component of this issue: I am using TestNG here.
I have a DAO layer performing persistence. It works fine as part of my little web app (I have a classic Controller, Service, DAO layers design). I can update this question with my XMLs if required.
My Service layer
@Service
public class UserServiceImpl implements UserService {
@Autowired
private UserDao userDao;
@Override
public GoodVibeUserDetails getUser(String username) throws UsernameNotFoundException {
GoodVibeUserDetails user = userDao.getDetailsRolesAndImagesForUser(username);
return user;
}
// more methods...
}
My DAO layer
@Repository
public class UserDaoImplHibernate implements UserDao {
@Autowired
private SessionFactory sessionFactory;
// My methods using sessionFactory & "talking" to the Db via the sessionFactory
}
And here is my Test Class
@Component
public class UserDaoImplHibernateTests{
@Autowired
private UserDao userDao;
private GoodVibeUserDetails user;
@BeforeMethod
public void beforeEachMethod() throws ParseException{
user = new GoodVibeUserDetails();
user.setUsername("adrien");
user.setActive(true);
// & so on...
}
/*
* When everything is fine - test cases
*/
@Test
public void shouldAcceptRegistrationAndReturnUserWithId() throws Exception{
assertNotNull(userDao) ;
user = userDao.registerUser(user);
assertNotNull(user.getId()) ;
}
// more test cases...
}
But for my test class the Autowiring, userDao always returns Null, I'm only starting to do tests in Spring and I'm a bit lost. Any pointers are welcome.
Latest edit after Boris Treukhov's answer
import ...
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertNotNull;
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration("/applicationContext.xml")
public class UserDaoImplHibernateTests{
@Autowired
@Qualifier("userDao")
private UserDao userDao;
private GoodVibeUserDetails user;
@BeforeMethod
public void beforeEachMethod() throws ParseException{
user = new GoodVibeUserDetails();
user.setUsername("adrien");
user.setActive(true);
// & so on...
}
/*
* When everything is fine - test cases
*/
@Test
public void shouldAcceptRegistrationAndReturnUserWithId() throws Exception{
assertNotNull(userDao) ;
user = userDao.registerUser(user);
assertNotNull(user.getId()) ;
}
// more test methods...
}
And this is my applicationContext.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

[...]
</beans>
I did not add a repository-config.xml as this should be enough to access userDao. I still get userDao equal null though.
Thanks in advance
