Why does my Bean not qualify as Autowire Candidate on Junit test?

Question

I have the following test class, which aims to run junit tests for my Service class in my MVC model. This is my class ExpertsServiceTest.java:


@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@RequiredArgsConstructor
@Component
public class ExpertsServiceTest {


    @Autowired
    private  ExpertRepository repository;

    @Autowired
    private ExpertsServiceImpl service;


    Experts demoExpert = new Experts(ObjectId.get(),"Steve Jobs", "Enterpreneur",
            Availability.BUSY, Language.CHINESE);



    @Before
    public void setUp() throws Exception{
        service.deleteAll();
        service.createExpert(demoExpert);

    }

    @After
    public void tearDown() throws Exception{
        service.deleteAll();
    }

    @Test
    public void testFindAll(){
        List<Experts> expertEntries = service.findAll();
        assertEquals(2, expertEntries.size());
    }
}

However when I run the test, I bump into the following error:


org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'demo.ExpertsServiceTest': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through field 'repository'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type 'demo.ExpertRepository' available: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate.

Does anyone understand why this happens and how I could go about resolving it? Thanks in advance for your help

you need `@SpringBootTest` annotation for integration test cases — Ryuzaki L, Feb 05 '20 at 11:30

You are not providing the application context information

Please annotate the test class with @ContextConfiguration and provide a configuration class. Something as follows

package com.example;

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
// ApplicationContext will be loaded from the OrderServiceConfig class
@ContextConfiguration(classes=OrderServiceConfig.class, loader=AnnotationConfigContextLoader.class)
public class OrderServiceTest {

    @Autowired
    private OrderService orderService;

    @Test
    public void testOrderService() {
        // test the orderService
    }
}

You don't have the spring context, you should use: '@SpringBootTest' annotation. You can read more here: SpringRunner vs SpringBootTest
