Class SpringApplicationContextLoader

java.lang.Object

AbstractContextLoader

org.springframework.boot.test.SpringApplicationContextLoader

public class SpringApplicationContextLoader
extends AbstractContextLoader

A ContextLoader that can be used to test Spring Boot applications (those that normally startup using SpringApplication). Can be used to test non-web features (like a repository layer) or start an fully-configured embedded servlet container.

Use @WebIntegrationTest (or @IntegrationTest with @WebAppConfiguration) to indicate that you want to use a real servlet container or @WebAppConfiguration alone to use a MockServletContext.

If @ActiveProfiles are provided in the test class they will be used to create the application context.
