Spring MVC控制器JUnit：无法加载应用程序上下文

Question

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)

@ContextConfiguration({"/web-application-config.xml"})

My project consist of 4 modules/layers. I can't make these annotations work with my JUnit test for Spring MVC controller but in other layers, it works like a charm.

I have researched the possibility of incompatibility of spring jars or misconfigurations, but I have tried editing the pom.xml in these layer, still it produces the same error.

Answer 1

Try to configure in this way ie

Give Absolute path separated by double Backslash

 For example
 @RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
 @ContextConfiguration(locations = 
{ 
    "file:D:\\projectName\\webtier\\webroot\\WEB-INF\\web-application-config.xml",

}
 )
