You can use spring-test. It's much easier:

@WebAppConfiguration
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration("classpath:your-context.xml")
public class BasicControllerTest {

        @Autowired
        protected WebApplicationContext wac;
        protected MockMvc mockMvc;

        @Before
        public void setUp() throws Exception {
        mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(this.wac).build();
        }

        @Test
        public void testUnauthorized(){

        mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders
                            .post("your_url")
                            .param("name", "values")
        .andDo(MockMvcResultHandlers.print())
        .andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.status().isUnauthorized()
        .andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.content().string(Matchers.notNullValue()));
        }
}
