Integration tests on Spring Boot: webEnvironment required?

Question

EDIT

I also tried to add

@ContextConfiguration(loader=AnnotationConfigContextLoader.class)

as suggested in this official Spring Blog page , but nothing

---

I created some integration tests, that tests methods of some repositories. I found that without:

@SpringBootTest(
    webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.MOCK,
    classes = ********.class
)

the tests don't run. I tried also with WebEnvironment.NONE , but I get

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load ApplicationContext

I don't understand why the web environment is required. Is there not a way to run an integration test on repositories without running the web environment?

Finally I found out the problem is using @EnableSwagger2.Check the following link.
