SpringBootTest unable to autowire repository - Unsatisfied Dependency expressed through field "TestRepository" - spring-boot

Question

I am trying to run test case using H2 database and SpringBootTest. But the Spring Boot is unable to load ApplicationContext. Based on suggestions on stackoverflow, I tried adding #ComponentScan or #ContextConfiguration or #EnableJpaRepositoories, but no luck.
The following is my test class.
#ActiveProfiles("test")
#SpringBootTest(classes= TestService.class)
public class TestServiceTest {
#Autowired
private TestRepository testRepository;
#Test
public void test_save(){
//some test code
}
}
Application.yml (under test/resources)
spring
datasource:
hikari:
pool:
sail:
driver-class-name: org.h2.Driver
jdbc-url: jdbc:h2:mem:testdb
username: sa
password: password
maximumPoolSize: 20
minimumIdle: 10
max-lifetime: 600000

Answer 1

When using the #SpringBootTest annotation the classes parameter is used for tell Spring wihch classes should be used to load the application context.
If no explicit classes are defined the test will use the context configuration you have defined in your webapp.
In your case I guess you want the later which you get by changing
#SpringBootTest(classes= TestService.class)
to
#SpringBootTest
