JUnit 4x Test Suite and Spring

[tillias]

Hi.

I've got multiple data providers in my web application. Each one effectively loads data from DBMS.

I need to apply something like SpringJUnit4ClassRunner but for test suite. How can I achieve this?

Here is sample code for unit test:

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "classpath:testApplicationContext.xml" })
public class SecurityDataProviderTest {

	private static HsqlDatabase database;

	private static final int NORMAL_USER_ID = 10001;
	private static final int DISABLED_USER_ID = 10002;
	private static final int DELETED_USER_ID = 10003;
	private static final int NOT_EXISTING_USER_ID = 10000;
	private static final int ORGANIZATION_ID = 10001;

	@Autowired
	private SecurityDataProvider securityDataProvider;

	@BeforeClass
	public static void setUp() throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException,
			ClassNotFoundException, SQLException, LiquibaseException {
		database = new HsqlDatabase();
		database.setUp("test");
	}

	@Test
	public void getUser_UserExists_UserIsLoaded() {
		User user = securityDataProvider.getUser(NORMAL_USER_ID);
		Assert.assertNotNull(user);
		Assert.assertEquals(NORMAL_USER_ID, user.getId());
		Assert.assertEquals("John", user.getFirstName());
		Assert.assertEquals("Doe", user.getLastName());
		Assert.assertFalse(user.getIsDeleted());
		Assert.assertFalse(user.getIsDisabled());

		Organization organization = user.getOrganization();
		Assert.assertNotNull(organization);
		Assert.assertEquals(ORGANIZATION_ID, organization.getId());
	}

So if I've got several data providers, I need to create test context for each of them. I'm expecting to init test context and database one time per suite and reuse it for several test classes

Please advise

With Spring 3.1 use profiles... Then for each test run select a different profile.
