MockMvc and Spring Security - Null FilterChainProxy

Question

I need to test my REST controllers that they are protected with Spring Security. I use MockMvc as Spring Security Link offered here

http://docs.spring.io/spring-security/site/docs/4.0.x/reference/htmlsingle/#test-mockmvc

Test:

@ContextConfiguration(locations = "classpath:applicationContext.xml")
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@WebAppConfiguration
public class LikesTest {

    protected MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Autowired
    private WebApplicationContext context;

    @Before
    public void setup() {
        mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders
                .webAppContextSetup(context)
                //.standaloneSetup(new MessageController())
                .apply(SecurityMockMvcConfigurers.springSecurity())
                .build();
    }

    @Test
    @WithMockUser("user")
    public void testAddLike() throws Exception {
        mockMvc.perform(get("/like?msgId=4&like=false"));
    }
}

When I run the JUnit test, I get this crash trace

java.lang.NullPointerException at org.springframework.security.web.FilterChainProxy.getFilters (FilterChainProxy.java:223)

Also, if you remove the bean inside applicationContext.xml:

<bean id="springSecurityFilterChain" class="org.springframework.security.web.FilterChainProxy"/>

Then I get this error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: springSecurityFilterChain . , bean springSecurityFilterChain , . org.springframework.security.test.web.servlet.setup.SecurityMockMvcConfigurer.beforeMockMvcCreated(SecurityMockMvcConfigurer.java:62)

, FilterChainProxy NULL. Web.xml DelegatingFilterProxy springSecurityFilterChain, . , !

Answer 1

. , . FilterChainProxy bean.

Answer 2

.webAppContextSetup , , AbstractSecurityWebApplicationInitializer, .

@ContextConfiguration bean:

 @Autowired
 FilterChainProxy springSecurityFilterChain;

MockMvc :

MockMvc mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders
   .standaloneSetup(controller)
   .apply(SecurityMockMvcConfigurers.springSecurity(springSecurityFilterChain))
   .build();
