This test is failing but I don't know why or how to fix it. If I hit a break point and call mockingContext.getBean(Repository.class), it does return my mock object, but for some reason the ProductionCode returned in createProductionCodeWithMock still has the real Repository autowired into it. I can only suspect that I need to do something special/extra to have an effect on autowired beans, but I don't know what it is. Why isn't this test passing, and how can I make it pass?
For what it's worth, I'm well aware of all the answers to this question. I still want to know why this test isn't working. I am using Spring 3.x.
Here's the test:
package mavensnapshot;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.GenericApplicationContext;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.mock;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.verify;
public class ProductionCodeTest {
@Test
public void testReplaceRepositoryWithMock() {
Repository mockRepository = mock(Repository.class);
ProductionCode productionCode = createProductionCodeWithMock(mockRepository);
productionCode.doSomething();
verify(mockRepository).save();
}
private ProductionCode createProductionCodeWithMock(Repository mockRepository) {
GenericApplicationContext mockingContext = new GenericApplicationContext();
mockingContext.getBeanFactory().registerSingleton(Repository.class.getName(), mockRepository);
mockingContext.setParent(new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("/beans.xml"));
return mockingContext.getBean(ProductionCode.class);
}
}
Here's my production code:
package mavensnapshot;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("/beans.xml");
ProductionCode productionCode = context.getBean(ProductionCode.class);
productionCode.doSomething();
}
}
package mavensnapshot;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
@Service
public class ProductionCode {
@Autowired
private Repository repository;
public void doSomething() {
repository.save();
}
}
package mavensnapshot;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
@Service
public class Repository {
public void save() {
System.out.println("production code");
}
}
