Getting “At least one JPA metamodel must be present” with @WebMvcTest

Question

I\'m fairly new to Spring, trying to do some basic integration tests for a @Controller.

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@WebMvcTest(DemoController.clas         


        

Answer 1

If anyone uses Spring boot and don't want to remove @EntityScan and @EnableJpaRepositories you can remove @WebMvcTest annotation from your test class and add the following instead:

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
public class DemoControllerIntegrationTests {
    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mvc;

    //...
}

and you will be able to autowire MockMvc and use it.
