#Scheduled works in Spring Boot application but not in #SpringBootTest - spring

Question

What is the reason that the #Scheduled function runs in Spring Boot Application but not in test environment (#SpringBootTest) ?
I am following the tutorial at https://github.com/spring-guides/gs-scheduling-tasks, the repository's test runs fine, but mine #Scheduled function does not run for once in my test, although it is working fine in my Spring Boot application.
Is it because of the version of Junit (The tutorial is using Junit5 while I am using JUnit 4) ?
My purpose of this test is to check the correctness of the configuration of my scheduler.
Below is the code I replicated with difference in Junit version.
BootApplication.java
package com.itsedo;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.SecurityAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.web.support.SpringBootServletInitializer;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.EnableScheduling;
// SecurityAutoConfiguration: exclude default spring security boot file.
#SpringBootApplication(exclude = { SecurityAutoConfiguration.class })
#ComponentScan("com.itsedo")
#EnableScheduling
public class BootApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
#Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
return application.sources(BootApplication.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
SpringApplication.run(BootApplication.class, args);
}
}
ScheduledTasks.java
package com.itsedo.scheduler;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
#Component
public class ScheduledTasks {
private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ScheduledTasks.class);
private static final SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
#Scheduled(fixedRate = 5000)
public void reportCurrentTime() {
log.info("The time is now {}", dateFormat.format(new Date()));
}
}
File ScheduledTasksTest.java
package com.itsedo.test;
import org.awaitility.Duration;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.boot.test.mock.mockito.SpyBean;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringRunner;
import static org.awaitility.Awaitility.await;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.atLeast;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.verify;
import com.itsedo.scheduler.ScheduledTasks;
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
public class ScheduledTasksTest {
#SpyBean
ScheduledTasks tasks;
#Test
public void reportCurrentTime() {
await().atMost(Duration.TEN_SECONDS).untilAsserted(() -> {
verify(tasks, atLeast(2)).reportCurrentTime();
});
}
}
Test Output
Running Spring Boot application
