SpringBoot Application Test Cases Error with IllegalStateException

Question

I am trying to integrate the test case in my spring boot application and for that I have added these configs in my build.gradle

plugins : {
    id 'jacoco'
    id 'org.sonarqube' version '3.3'
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.springdoc:springdoc-openapi-ui:1.6.9'
    testImplementation 'org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.8.2'
    testRuntimeOnly 'org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:5.8.2'
}

jacoco {
    toolVersion = "0.8.10" 

test {
    useJUnitPlatform()
    finalizedBy jacocoTestReport
}

jacocoTestReport {
    dependsOn test
    reports {
        xml.enabled true
        html.enabled true
        html.destination file("${buildDir}/reports/jacoco")
    }
}

sonarqube {
    properties {
        property 'sonar.java.coveragePlugin', 'jacoco'
    }
}

Now After that, I have created a test folder in a similar way and wrote my Test Controller.

This is my actual class: ErrorController

package com.company.app.controllers; 

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/error")
@Log4j2
@RequiredArgsConstructor(onConstructor = @__({@Autowired}))
public class ErrorController {
  @GetMapping
  public String index(Model model) {
    return "404";
  }
}

This is my test class: ErrorControllerTest

package com.company.app.controllers;

@WebMvcTest(controllers = ErrorController.class)

public class ErrorControllerTest {

    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Test
    public void testIndex() throws Exception {
        mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders.get("/error"))
                .andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.status().isOk())
                .andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.view().name("404"));
    }
}

Things are loading fine as I can see in report. Now when I am running this I am getting error like

But this the error I am getting.

Can you please suggetst me what I am doing wrong here.

Answer 1

Main error of the test class you are running is showing error in application context that is not able to load try to add package name before class name it will fix the error i guess.

Answer 2

This line in error log

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type 'com.company.app.repositories.SpringSessionRepository' available: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate. Dependency annotations: {}

Says that SpringSessionRepository bean was not injected into Spring context during test
