By default spring boot security isn’t too talkative.
If you struggle with some problems and want to see what is going on under the covers, you can always switch to wider log level.

You can do it by providing this property in your application.yml or application.properties file.

logging.level.org.springframework.security: DEBUG

Additionaly you can turn on Spring Web debug logs and set debug parameter to true in your @EnableWebSecurity annotation

logging.level.org.springframework.web: DEBUG

@EnableWebSecurity(debug = true)
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {...}

Hello.
Today I want to show you simple test configuration in spring mvc project.
In example I use java based configuration(I admit that this kind of configuration I prefer).
But in future I want to present xml based configuration, too.

On the bottom of the post you find link to github repository with full project.

Class under testing:

package com.raphaelsolarski.springtestconfig.controller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;

@Controller
public class MyController {

    @RequestMapping(path = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    String home() {
        return "home";
    }

}

Test:

package com.raphaelsolarski.springtestconfig.controller;

import com.raphaelsolarski.springtestconfig.config.WebConfig;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.context.TestExecutionListeners;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner;
import org.springframework.test.context.support.DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener;
import org.springframework.test.context.web.AnnotationConfigWebContextLoader;
import org.springframework.test.context.web.WebAppConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.MockMvc;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.setup.MockMvcBuilders;
import org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext;

import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.request.MockMvcRequestBuilders.get;

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(classes = {WebConfig.class}, loader = AnnotationConfigWebContextLoader.class)
@TestExecutionListeners(listeners = {DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.class})
@WebAppConfiguration
public class MyControllerTest {

    @Autowired
    private WebApplicationContext webApplicationContext;

    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(webApplicationContext).build();
    }

    @Test
    public void getRootShouldReturnHomeView() throws Exception {
        mockMvc.perform(get("/")).andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.view().name("home"));
    }

}
