I use SpringBeanAutowiringSupport for bean injection in some objects. Problem is, that injection of beans does not work in jUnit tests. For testing is used SpringJUnit4Class
well spring + junit team have already fixed this . look this link -- >
spring unit testing
otherwise you can call the spring context and use the getBean method , but in that way you can even do it with a simple main test inside your class instead of junit test
**note if you use the spring + junit config you have to put the test-spring-context.xml into the test package
