Dependency Injection with Spring/Junit/JPA
- by Steve
I'm trying to create JUnit tests for my JPA DAO classes, using Spring 2.5.6 and JUnit 4.8.1.
My test case looks like this:
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations={"classpath:config/jpaDaoTestsConfig.xml"} )
public class MenuItem_Junit4_JPATest extends BaseJPATestCase {
private ApplicationContext context;
private InputStream dataInputStream;
private IDataSet dataSet;
@Resource
private IMenuItemDao menuItemDao;
@Test
public void testFindAll() throws Exception {
assertEquals(272, menuItemDao.findAll().size());
}
... Other test methods ommitted for brevity ...
}
I have the following in my jpaDaoTestsConfig.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"

</bean>
<!-- enables interpretation of the @Transactional annotation for declerative transaction managment

<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="jpaTransactionManager" proxy-target-class="false"/>
</beans>
Now, when I try to run this, I get the following:

It seems to be telling me that its attempting to store an EntityManager object into an EntityManagerFactory field, but I don't understand how or why. My DAO classes accept both an EntityManager and EntityManagerFactory via the @PersistenceContext attribute, and they work find if I load them up and run them without the @ContextConfiguration attribute (i.e. if I just use the XmlApplcationContext to load the DAO and the EntityManagerFactory directly in setUp ()).
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks.
