问题
I've generated a Spring Boot web application using Spring Initializr, using embedded Tomcat + Thymeleaf template engine, and package as an executable JAR file.
Technologies used :
Spring Boot 1.4.2.RELEASE, Spring 4.3.4.RELEASE, Thymeleaf 2.1.5.RELEASE, Tomcat Embed 8.5.6, Maven 3, Java 8.
Now I want to implement a Test using the class SpringApplicationConfiguration, so I imported
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
But I get this error even I've updated the project several times
The import org.springframework.boot.test.SpringApplicationConfiguration cannot be resolved
I've also tried to add the dependency with by right click on the pom.xml in Eclipse and 'Maven Add Dependency' ,
Doing mvn clean dependency:tree the dependency is there, but doing mvn clean compile and mvn dependency:purge-local-repository I got package org.springframework.test.annotation does not exist

回答1:
SpringApplicationConfiguration is deprecated in favor of SpringBootTest. It was removed in latest spring-boot versions.
You mentioned that you're using Spring Boot 1.4.2 but in fact I see dependencies to 1.5.2 and this is the reason why you can't import it.
I recommend you to use SpringBootTest whenever you want to load spring context in test.
