Spring-framework: Support @TestPropertySource at method level [SPR-14378]

Created on 17 Jun 2016 · 10Comments · Source: spring-projects/spring-framework

Justin Knowles opened SPR-14378 and commented

@TestPropertySource allows you to set test-suite / class-level properties, but I want test-level properties so I can test drive classes with @ConditionalOnProperty and @Value(${var:default}) type annotations for correct behavior.

I have considered creating separate test suites for each test, but that seems unnatural. I currently manually manage the context within the test to validate the behavior.

Any plans on this? It would be very useful to not having to create a separate class each time an application.properties parameter should change for testing.

This would be really useful for me as well. I'm doing a lot of custom @AutoConfigure and managing different properties between tests is really tricky since @TestPropertySource only works on the class level.
