Spring @TestPropertySource类路径vs文件

Question

Is there way to load test properties like this?

@TestPropertySource("${test.config:'classpath:application.test.properties'}")

The point is to check test.config argument (there could be something like file:c:/test.properties ) and if the value is not set, then it will take default properties from classpath.

I was able to load properties from classpath swithing it using argument.

I was unable to combine classpath and file

Solved:

@PropertySource(value = {"classpath:application.test.properties","${test.config}"}, ignoreResourceNotFound = true)

Answer 1

• if environment variable test.config is not defined then context will not be loaded
• if environment variable test.config is defined but file test.properties is not present then also context will loaded.

I think you are not using TestPropertySource as per it's use case.

TestPropertySource is used if you want to override some properties during test cases. If you want to override some properties in test cases, just put those properties in test property file. Spring will override only those properties which are there in in test property file

Not sure why you want to check test.config environment variable and then do some operations .
