java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load ApplicationContext in JUNIT

Question

I am facing problem with JUnit while running unit test cases.I am using Spring 4 and JUnit 4. I didn't know why i am getting this exception while running the test code.I tried all the possible ways to execute the code but i got failed to run test cases.

 @RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
    @WebAppConfiguration
    @ContextConfiguration(classes = SampleConfiguration.class)
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    public class JunitSampleDetails {
        @ClassRule
        public static final JunitDataSource  DATA_SOURCE = new JunitDataSource();
        @Autowired
        private XyzDetailsService xyzDetailsService;
        @Autowired
        private JavaMailSenderImpl javaMailSenderImpl;

I am getting the following exception while running the test method

Solution

See the main reason: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl].

com.sample.controller.XYZDetailsController needs the JavaMailSenderImpl which is not in the classpath or not configured in you unit test

i already added this @Autowired private JavaMailSenderImpl javaMailSenderImpl; still am facing the same prob

[Jens]

Do you have the jar which contains org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl in your classpath?

[Nagendra V]

added javax.mail this dependency in Pom.xml

[Jens]

This class is not a part of javax.mail. It is part of spring-context-support
