Question

I have following test class   RunWith SpringJUnit4ClassRunner class   ContextConfiguration locations      services-test-config xml    public class MySericeTest       Autowired   MyService service           Is it possible to access services-test-config xml programmatically in one of such methods  Like   ApplicationContext ctx   somehowGetContext

This works fine too    Autowired ApplicationContext context

Since the tests will be instantiated like a Spring bean too  you just need to implement the ApplicationContextAware interface    RunWith SpringJUnit4ClassRunner class   ContextConfiguration locations      services-test-config xml    public class MySericeTest implements ApplicationContextAware       Autowired   MyService service           Override     public void setApplicationContext ApplicationContext context              throws BeansException                  Do something with the context here

If your test class extends the Spring JUnit classes  e g   AbstractTransactionalJUnit4SpringContextTests or any other class that extends AbstractSpringContextTests   you can access the app context by calling the getContext   method  Check out the javadocs for the package org springframework test

It s possible to inject instance of ApplicationContext class by using SpringClassRule and SpringMethodRule rules  It might be very handy if you would like to use another non-Spring runners  Here s an example    ContextConfiguration classes   BeanConfiguration class  public static class SpringRuleUsage         ClassRule     public static final SpringClassRule springClassRule   new SpringClassRule          Rule     public final SpringMethodRule springMethodRule   new SpringMethodRule          Autowired     private ApplicationContext context        Test     public void shouldInjectContext
