I am creating web application using Spring, Hibernate, Struts, and Maven.
I get the below error when I run mvn clean install command:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'com.project.action.PasswordHintActionTest': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.project.action.PasswordHintAction com.project.action.PasswordHintActionTest.action; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No matching bean of type [com.project.action.PasswordHintAction] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency. Dependency annotations: {@org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired(required=true)}
The following is the class that has the Autowired dependency:
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;
import org.project.model.User;
import org.proejct.service.UserManager;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.subethamail.wiser.Wiser;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;
public class PasswordHintActionTest extends BaseActionTestCase {
@Autowired
private PasswordHintAction action;
@Autowired
private UserManager userManager;
@Test
public void testExecute() throws Exception {
// start SMTP Server
Wiser wiser = new Wiser();
wiser.setPort(getSmtpPort());
wiser.start();
action.setUsername("user");
assertEquals("success", action.execute());
assertFalse(action.hasActionErrors());
// verify an account information e-mail was sent
wiser.stop();
assertTrue(wiser.getMessages().size() == 1);
// verify that success messages are in the request
assertNotNull(action.getSession().getAttribute("messages"));
}
}
My applicationcontext.xml

I have added to my context configuration to scan Autowired dependencies. But I am not sure why it is still giving this exception.
I tried adding it in following way also but I still get the same exception
<context:component-scan base-package="com.project.*"/>
UPDATE:
following is the password hint action
import org.project.model.User;
import com.project.webapp.util.RequestUtil;
import org.springframework.mail.MailException;
import org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.UsernameNotFoundException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class PasswordHintAction extends BaseAction {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -4037514607101222025L;
private String username;
/**
* @param username The username to set.
*/
public void setUsername(String username) {
this.username = username;
}
/**
* Execute sending the password hint via e-mail.
*
* @return success if username works, input if not
*/
public String execute() {
List<Object> args = new ArrayList<Object>();
// ensure that the username has been sent
if (username == null) {
log.warn("Username not specified, notifying user that it's a required field.");
args.add(getText("user.username"));
addActionError(getText("errors.requiredField", args));
return INPUT;
}
if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
log.debug("Processing Password Hint...");
}
// look up the user's information
try {
User user = userManager.getUserByUsername(username);
String hint = user.getPasswordHint();
if (hint == null || hint.trim().equals("")) {
log.warn("User '" + username + "' found, but no password hint exists.");
addActionError(getText("login.passwordHint.missing"));
return INPUT;
}
StringBuffer msg = new StringBuffer();
msg.append("Your password hint is: ").append(hint);
msg.append("\n\nLogin at: ").append(RequestUtil.getAppURL(getRequest()));
mailMessage.setTo(user.getEmail());
String subject = '[' + getText("webapp.name") + "] " + getText("user.passwordHint");
mailMessage.setSubject(subject);
mailMessage.setText(msg.toString());
mailEngine.send(mailMessage);
args.add(username);
args.add(user.getEmail());
saveMessage(getText("login.passwordHint.sent", args));
} catch (UsernameNotFoundException e) {
log.warn(e.getMessage());
args.add(username);
addActionError(getText("login.passwordHint.error", args));
getSession().setAttribute("errors", getActionErrors());
return INPUT;
} catch (MailException me) {
addActionError(me.getCause().getLocalizedMessage());
getSession().setAttribute("errors", getActionErrors());
return INPUT;
}
return SUCCESS;
}
}
Update 2:
applicationContext-struts.xml:
<bean id="passwordHintAction" class="com.project.action.PasswordHintAction" scope="prototype">
<property name="userManager" ref="userManager"/>
<property name="mailEngine" ref="mailEngine"/>
<property name="mailMessage" ref="mailMessage"/>
</bean>
