Answer 1

Spring for saving entity requires transaction. But until transaction has been commited changes not be visible from another transaction.

Simplest way is call controller after commit transaction

@Test
@Transactional
public void contextLoads() {
    Person person = personService.createPerson(1, "person1");
    Assert.assertNotNull(person);

    TransactionSynchronizationManager.registerSynchronization(new TransactionSynchronizationAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void afterCommit() {
            ResponseEntity persons = restTemplate.getForEntity("/persons", Person[].class);
        }
    });        
}
