Class SpringBootContextLoader

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.test.context.support.AbstractContextLoader

org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootContextLoader

All Implemented Interfaces:

ContextLoader, SmartContextLoader

public class SpringBootContextLoader
extends AbstractContextLoader

A ContextLoader that can be used to test Spring Boot applications (those that normally startup using SpringApplication). Although this loader can be used directly, most test will instead want to use it with SpringBootTest.

The loader supports both standard MergedContextConfiguration as well as WebMergedContextConfiguration. If WebMergedContextConfiguration is used the context will either use a mock servlet environment, or start the full embedded servlet container.

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