How to debug loading applicant Context?

[kramer2718]

Hi there,

I am getting an OutOfMemoryError during loading of application context (while running tests). I really have no idea how to troubleshoot that. Any help would be appreciate that.

The stacktrace is below:

In your logging mechanism setup debug loggers that map directly to the packages listed in your stack trace.

You might also want to step through and debug your test??? Set an appropriate break point.

You could also troubleshoot with something like JProfiler.
