Rabbit trying to connect on test spring boot

Question

I want to disable the Rabbit on @Test method. I tried using the doNothing.when(rabbit.class) method, but it's not working.

Can you help me find a way to prevent the connection to Rabbit?

Thanks

This depends on what you are trying to do if you running unit tests that should not be a problem since unit tests do not require loading the application context. On the other hand, if you running integration tests @SpringBootTest that requires you to load your application context and inject your Beans. You have 2 solutions:

Either annotate your services that require RabbitMq with @MockBean.
Use test containers to spin up a rabbitMq testing environment.

It would be more helpful to provide more details about the kind of test you are running and how you have written your test.
