web services - cxf request scoped bean not working in unit test (soap) -

cxf soap application, using following versions:

springbootversion = 1.2.3.release springversion     = '4.1.6.release' cxfversion        = '3.1.0' junitversion      = '4.12' 

i have spring bean request scope:

@component @scope( value=webapplicationcontext.scope_request, proxymode = scopedproxymode.target_class ) public class requestscopedclass 

which fetch dynamically applicationcontext in cxf endpoint implementation:

@component @webservice(endpointinterface = "ch.xyz.paymentserviceinterface" ) public class paymentserviceimpl implements paymentserviceinterface {     ...     requestscopedclass rsc = appctxt.getbean( requestscopedclass.class );     rsc.dosomething(); 

my goal test frontend of soap service simulating client connects listener port etc., ensuring whole cxf stack interceptor chain (including custom interceptors) executed. managed setup configuration including

org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-http-jetty 

dependency , starting endpoint in test setup:

string address = "http://0.0.0.0:8080/"; myendpoint = endpoint.publish( address, new paymentserviceimpl() ); 

running test throws beancreationexception in call rsc.dosomething():

error creating bean name 'scopedtarget.requestscopedenvironment': scope 'request' not active ... 

if change proxymode 1 of 3 other possibilites, same exception thrown when fetching bean appctxt.

the test annotated

@runwith( springjunit4classrunner.class ) @contextconfiguration( classes = {                                ...,                                requestscopedclass.class                              } ) @webappconfiguration 

if application started "gradle bootrun" on command line , soap request done chrome postman application fine , expected soap response.

what can there valid request scope when executing cxf soap server in unit test?

meanwhile found solution:

... import org.springframework.context.configurableapplicationcontext;  @autowired private configurableapplicationcontext myctxt;   @before public void setup() throws throwable {     myctxt.getbeanfactory().registerscope( "session", new customscope4test() );     myctxt.getbeanfactory().registerscope( "request", new customscope4test() );          }  public class customscope4test implements scope {      private final map<string, object> beanmap = new hashmap<string, object>();      /**      * @see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.scope#get(java.lang.string, org.springframework.beans.factory.objectfactory)      */     public object get( string name, objectfactory<?> factory )     {         object bean = beanmap.get( name );         if ( null == bean )         {             bean = factory.getobject();             beanmap.put( name, bean );         }         return bean;     }      /**      * @see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.scope#getconversationid()      */     public string getconversationid()     {         // not needed         return null;     }      /**      * @see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.scope#registerdestructioncallback(java.lang.string, java.lang.runnable)      */     public void registerdestructioncallback( string arg0, runnable arg1 )     {         // not needed     }      /**      * @see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.scope#remove(java.lang.string)      */     public object remove( string obj )     {         return beanmap.remove( obj );     }      /**      * @see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.scope#resolvecontextualobject(java.lang.string)      */     public object resolvecontextualobject( string arg0 )     {         // not needed         return null;     } }
