Our project has just decided to migrate from Spring 2.5.5 to Spring 3.0.4. In my original code, I had unit tests that looked like the following:

public class RequisitionDaoTest extends AbstractJpaTests
{

    public static String FAIL_MSG_UNEXPECTED_ERROR = "FAIL: Unexpected Error";

        @PersistenceContext
        private EntityManager em;

    @PersistenceUnit
    private EntityManagerFactory emf;

        @Test
        public void testSomething ()
        {
          ...
        }
}

This worked just fine with Spring 2.5.5. Now with Spring 3.0.4, the AbstractJpaTests class has been deprecated.

The problem is that I can't seem to find what to use to replace it. I've seen several posts that show using something called AbstractTransactionalJUnit4SpringContextTests, but when I convert to using it, I get the following error:

SEVERE: Caught exception while allowing TestExecutionListener [org.springframework.test.context.support.DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener@4aec4aec] to prepare test instance [RequsitionDaoTest@5dcc5dcc]

Since I'm using JPA, I don't have or need a DataSource bean for Spring.

So is there any direct analog for the AbstractJpaTests class in the new Spring, or should I just continue to uses the deprecated classes for now?

Thanks...

A: 

Actually, it turns out that there is no analog to the AbstractJpaTests class in the new Spring. The new test class do not need to inherit any behavior from Spring to do their jobs. Its all handled by the annotations now.

So my class should actually look like this:

public class RequisitionDaoTest
{

    public static String FAIL_MSG_UNEXPECTED_ERROR = "FAIL: Unexpected Error";

        @PersistenceContext
        private EntityManager em;

    @PersistenceUnit
    private EntityManagerFactory emf;

        @Test
        public void testSomething ()
        {
          ...
        }
}

In addition, you need to include the assertion functions from Spring, since they're not included by the AbstractJpaTests class. The import looks like this:

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.
