@After ,@before not working in testcase


I have started testing and now i want to use @After, @Before and @Test but my application only runs the @Before method and gives output on console

before

However, if I remove @After and @Before it runs the @Test. My code is here:

public class TestPractise extends AbstractTransactionalDataSourceSpringContextTests{

    @Before
    public void runBare(){
        System.out.println("before");
    }

    @Test
    public void testingMethod(){
        System.out.println("testing");
    }

    @After
    public void setDirty(){
        System.out.println("after");
    }
}

Why aren't @After, @Test and @before working simultaneously?


Solution

  • The AbstractTransactionalDataSourceSpringContextTests class forces the use of the old JUnit 3.x syntax, which means that any of the JUnit 4 annotation will not work.

    Your method runBare() is executed not because of the @Before annotation, but because it is named runBare(), which is a method provided by ConditionalTestCase and JUnit TestCase class.

    So you have 2 solutions:
