Auto-configured Data Neo4j Tests

You can use @DataNeo4jTest to test Neo4j applications. By default, it scans for @Node classes, and configures Spring Data Neo4j repositories. Regular @Component and @ConfigurationProperties beans are not scanned when the @DataNeo4jTest annotation is used. @EnableConfigurationProperties can be used to include @ConfigurationProperties beans. (For more about using Neo4J with Spring Boot, see "Neo4j".)

A list of the auto-configuration settings that are enabled by @DataNeo4jTest can be found in the appendix.

The following example shows a typical setup for using Neo4J tests in Spring Boot:

Java
Kotlin

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.data.neo4j.DataNeo4jTest;

@DataNeo4jTest
class MyDataNeo4jTests {

	@Autowired
	private SomeRepository repository;

	// ...

}

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.data.neo4j.DataNeo4jTest

@DataNeo4jTest
class MyDataNeo4jTests(@Autowired val repository: SomeRepository) {

	// ...

}

By default, Data Neo4j tests are transactional and roll back at the end of each test. See the relevant section in the Spring Framework Reference Documentation for more details. If that is not what you want, you can disable transaction management for a test or for the whole class, as follows:

Java
Kotlin

import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.data.neo4j.DataNeo4jTest;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Propagation;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;

@DataNeo4jTest
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED)
class MyDataNeo4jTests {

}

import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.data.neo4j.DataNeo4jTest
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Propagation
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional

@DataNeo4jTest
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED)
class MyDataNeo4jTests

Transactional tests are not supported with reactive access. If you are using this style, you must configure @DataNeo4jTest tests as described above.
