AbstractTransactionalSpringContextTests lazy loading beans

[grgowtham]

Hi ,

I had written class which extends “AbstractTransactionalSpringContextTests” for testing my beans instantiated via spring framework .

I had annotated all java classes eligible for spring to load with @Service,@Autowire,@Qualifier in XML along with component scanning with pkg which has annotated classes .

Issue I face when I tried to inject properties (with autowire ) for classes which is not apart of component scanning ( I purposefully left those packages in scanning, as I am not interested in testing / loading the class)
Spring does because required is set to true by default in Autowired class.

Hence to resolve this issue , I added “default-lazy-init="true" in xml , which resolved my issue .

Even with “AbstractTransactionalSpringContextTests” we have that option using “setDependencyCheck(false) ".it is not working as expected .

I prefer way to do in test class level , rather than changing xml ( FYI going fwd we would like to use same XML for application and testing )

Thanks in advance .
