Use component scanning as given below  if com project action PasswordHintAction is annotated with stereotype annotations   lt context component-scan base-package  com project action   gt    EDIT  I see your problem  in PasswordHintActionTest you are autowiring PasswordHintAction  But you did not create bean configuration for PasswordHintAction to autowire  Add one of stereotype annotation  Component   Service   Controller  to PasswordHintAction like   Component public class PasswordHintAction extends BaseAction       private static final long serialVersionUID   -4037514607101222025L      private String username    or create xml configuration in applicationcontext xml like   lt bean id  passwordHintAction  class  com project action PasswordHintAction    gt

Add bean declaration in bean xml file or in any other configuration file   It will resolve the error  lt bean  class  quot com demo dao RailwayDao quot  gt  lt  bean gt   lt bean  class  quot com demo service RailwayService quot  gt  lt  bean gt   lt bean  class  quot com demo model RailwayReservation quot  gt  lt  bean gt

You need to provide a candidate for autowire  That means that an instance of PasswordHint must be known to spring in a way that it can guess that it must reference it   Please provide the class head of PasswordHint and or the spring bean definition of that class for further assistance   Try changing the name of  PasswordHintAction action    to  PasswordHintAction passwordHintAction    so that it matches the bean definition
