为什么IntelliJ能够看到我的应用程序上下文，但是当我运行我的测试时他们看不到它？

Question

I had some JUnit tests which were running fine. Recently they have stopped working, without any change being done to the code itself. I'm assuming that some change must have happened to my configuration settings somewhere, but I cannot figure out where the problem lies.

I have a test that looks like the one below:

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations="classpath:ApplicationContext.xml")
public class MyTests {

    @Autowired
    MyTestClass myClass

    @Test
    public void myFirstTest() {
        // Test code
    }

}

The directory structure looks like this

• MyPackage
  • test
    • java
      • MyTests
  • resources
    • ApplicationContext.xml

The most confusing thing about all of this is that IntelliJ understands where the context is. It links to it in my code, I can see the annotation of the leaf and I can click it to bring up the correct application context, and next to the bean autowired annotation I can see the little bean icon and when I click it it takes me to the definition inside the application context. So I know that it's there and can be read. So why can JUnit not see it? What configuration have I managed to lose/change?

NOTE: I'm trying both debug/run test through IntelliJ.

Just try this:

@ContextConfiguration(locations="classpath:ApplicationContext.xml")

change to:

@ContextConfiguration(locations={"classpath:**/ApplicationContext.xml"})
