Hi All,
I am new to spring framework , Just wanted to know if there is any plug in required for testing DAO component (uses both Spring & Hibernate ) in Junit Test class.

For example spring provides Struts ContextLoaderPlugIn from where it gets the application context.
org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn


Basically I have written a abstract class which extends org.springframework.test.AbstractSpringContextTest s class and then I am calling my Junit Test class by extending the base class.

In Junit test class construter , am trying to access the bean
dao= (DAO) applicationContext.getBean("dao");

Thanks in advance
