Hi developer experts, I have a small but frustrating use case, and so far, I couldn’t get my head around this problem & ideal solution. I am running my command, and I am facing one problem with the java lang illegalstateexception failed to load applicationcontext Below is the command I used:
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {
"classpath:spring/applicationContext.xml",
"classpath:spring/applicationContext-jpa.xml",
"classpath:spring/applicationContext-security.xml" })
public class MyControllerTest extends TestCase {
@Autowired
private MyController myController;
@Test
public void myMethod_test() {
}
}When I run it, I get the following error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load ApplicationContext

The cause:
There are two reasons of this error:
Solution: You should use the relativa path. Here is my suggestion:

Use * to find the relative path
You might want to check if your xml really are on resources/spring/ .
Try it without location
The other error that you’re showing is because you have this tag duplicated on applicationContext.xml and applicationContext-security.xml
