Answer

The error is in the stack trace

Could not autowire field: private javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest com.myapp.controller.ProductController.request; ... No matching bean of type [javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest]

The problem is that simple Spring tests run with the bare Spring apprlication context, without Spring Web Application context capabilities. So HttpServletRequests, Servlet Context and other features are not available in this case.

Try adding @WebAppConfiguration annotation to the test class.

Please note, that this option is available only in Spring 3.2+ versions.

In the older versions of Spring you'll need to invent something to make this interface implementations available in the application context(the most straightforward thing is to expose MockServletContext class and/or HttpServletRequest interface as beans for tests).

Also please note that the code that uses session scope beans is usually controller specific and belongs to web application context and I believe that it will be the best practice to test controllers in separate tests with the @WebAppConfiguration, but leave the tests of the plain old beans and services belonging to the root application context in the simple application contexts, i.e. without @WebAppConfiguration.

Just to be clear ProductDAO belongs to the root application context, and ProductController belongs to the web application context, so their definitions should be placed in different xml files. ProductDAO test should point to the xml of the root app context only and contain no @WebAppConfiguration.

As for ProductController test should point to both root app context and web app context xml files (see How to Setup web application context in Spring MVC test for examples) and be annotated with @WebAppConfiguration

Question 2

I try to run a JUnit test case for ProductDAO class, that is part of the spring web application. But it still fails. I am not sure by my test-context.xml file.

I have ProductDAOImplTest class in path src/test/java and mentioned ProductController class in the stacktrace is saved in a path src/main/java.

ProductDAOImplTest

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration("file:src/test/resources/test-context.xml")
@Transactional
public class ProductDAOImplTest {

    @Autowired
    private ProductDAO productDAO;

    @Test
    public void testAdd() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

    @Test
    public void testEdit() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

    @Test
    public void testGetAll() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

    @Test
    public void testGet() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

    @Test
    public void testRemove() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

    @Test
    public void testGetByPage() {
        fail("Not yet implemented");
    }

}
