@ContextHierarchy
@ContextHierarchy
is an annotation that can be applied to a test class to define a
hierarchy of ApplicationContext
instances for integration tests. @ContextHierarchy
should be declared with a list of one or more @ContextConfiguration
instances, each of
which defines a level in the context hierarchy. The following examples demonstrate the
use of @ContextHierarchy
within a single test class (@ContextHierarchy
can also be
used within a test class hierarchy):
-
Java
-
Kotlin
@ContextHierarchy({
@ContextConfiguration("/parent-config.xml"),
@ContextConfiguration("/child-config.xml")
})
class ContextHierarchyTests {
// class body...
}
@ContextHierarchy(
ContextConfiguration("/parent-config.xml"),
ContextConfiguration("/child-config.xml"))
class ContextHierarchyTests {
// class body...
}
-
Java
-
Kotlin
@WebAppConfiguration
@ContextHierarchy({
@ContextConfiguration(classes = AppConfig.class),
@ContextConfiguration(classes = WebConfig.class)
})
class WebIntegrationTests {
// class body...
}
@WebAppConfiguration
@ContextHierarchy(
ContextConfiguration(classes = [AppConfig::class]),
ContextConfiguration(classes = [WebConfig::class]))
class WebIntegrationTests {
// class body...
}
If you need to merge or override the configuration for a given level of the context
hierarchy within a test class hierarchy, you must explicitly name that level by supplying
the same value to the name
attribute in @ContextConfiguration
at each corresponding
level in the class hierarchy. See Context Hierarchies and the
@ContextHierarchy
javadoc
for further examples.
