使用Spring Boot @WebMvcTest测试时如何从我的上下文中排除其他@Controller

Question

I have multiple controllers and my understanding is that by specifying one controller in @WebMvcTest that other controllers wouldn't be loaded into context. From the docs

controllers - Specifies the controllers to test. May be left blank if all @Controller beans should be added to the application context.

My first Controller

@Controller
public class MyController {

    @Autowired
    private MyService myService;

    private final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());

    @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public @ResponseBody ResponseEntity<String> index() {
        try {
            myService.get();
            return new ResponseEntity<String>(HttpStatus.OK);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            logger.error(e);
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return new ResponseEntity<String>("REQUEST FAILED", HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
    }

}

My other controller

@Controller
public class MyOtherController {

    @Autowired
    private MyOtherService myOtherService;

    etc...
}

My Test for my Controller

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@WebMvcTest(controllers = { MyController.class }, secure = false)
@ActiveProfiles({ "test" })
public class MyControllerTest {

    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @MockBean
    MyService myService;

    @Test
    public void testBaseReq() throws Exception {
        Testing dummyData = new Testing();
        dummyData.setData("testing");
        when(myService.get(anyInt())).thenReturn(dummyData);

        this.mockMvc.perform(get("/")).andDo(print()).andExpect(status().isOk());
    }
}

But when I run this test, it fails trying to load the bean MyOtherService from MyOtherContoller when loading the context.

Dependency annotations: {@org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired(required=true)}

I thought specifying the controller to test in the WebMvcTest annotation would limit it to the only loading that contoller. But its trying to load the other controller and because its beans aren't mocked it fails.

What am I missing or is my understanding incorrect? I think I should only have to mock beans for the Controller under test. I've also tried an excludeFilter to specifically exclude the package for the other Controller but that didn't change the error.

Please make sure the Application.class your test picks up, doesn't contain @ComponentScan annotation. For example, this is your package structure

abc-project
  +--pom.xml
  +--src
    +-- main
      +-- com
        +-- abc
          +-- Application.java
          +-- controller
            +-- MyController.java
    +-- test
      +-- com
        +-- abc
          +-- Application.java
          +-- controller
            +-- MyControllerTest.java

The Application.java under test should look similar to this example,

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }
}

Answer 2

my.package.other.myOtherMapper (probably Mybatis Mapper file) is missing or not clearly initialized.

As of my understanding, myOtherService implementation class has Mapper file which is not mapped properly.

You may have to map them first. You can post the Mapper xml content if possible.

  <context:component-scan base-package="org.example">       
    <context:exclude-filter type="custom" expression="abc.xyz.MyOtherController"/>
  </context:component-scan>
