DataSourceTransactionManager and test for active transaction

I have a simple app that use org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager to manage the transactions. My spring config is as follow:

<tx:annotation-driven/>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
</bean>

I have annotated the method with @Transactional and print out the TransactionSynchronizationManager.isActualTransactionActive()

But the out put is false. What have i done wrong ?

Edit: i forgot to say that i test that with SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class. I included the TransactionalTestExecutionL开发者_如何转开发istener.class and this will not work. Now it worked after i extend the class with AbstractTransactionalJUnit4SpringContextTests

I think you forgot to add the below to your cfg file. this is required when you are using annotations. Have you added this?

<tx:annotation-driven/>

Here is the namespace

xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"

 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx-2.0.xsd">

Did you use the required annotations on your test class?

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = "classpath:/spring-....xml")
@TestExecutionListeners({TransactionalTestExecutionListener.class, DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.class})
@TransactionConfiguration(transactionManager = "transactionManager", defaultRollback = true)
@Transactional(readOnly = false)
public class MyTest {
 ...
}

I'm not sure whether the last two are really necessary, I want my test cases to have an active transaction that's why I need those. The first three should be enough in order to get transactional proxies for your annotated beans.

I had the same problem, you should use this instead:

<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
</bean>
