cxf request scoped bean not working in unit test (soap) - web-services

Question

CXF soap application, using following versions:
springBootVersion = 1.2.3.RELEASE
springVersion = '4.1.6.RELEASE'
cxfVersion = '3.1.0'
junitVersion = '4.12'
I have a spring bean with a request scope:
#Component
#Scope( value=WebApplicationContext.SCOPE_REQUEST, proxyMode = ScopedProxyMode.TARGET_CLASS )
public class RequestScopedClass
which I fetch dynamically from ApplicationContext in my CXF endpoint implementation:
#Component
#WebService(endpointInterface = "ch.xyz.PaymentServiceInterface" )
public class PaymentServiceImpl implements PaymentServiceInterface
{
...
RequestScopedClass rsc = appCtxt.getBean( RequestScopedClass.class );
rsc.doSomething();
My goal is to test the frontend of the soap service by simulating a client which connects to the listener port etc., ensuring that the whole cxf stack with the interceptor chain (including my custom interceptors) is executed. I managed to setup this configuration by including the
org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-http-jetty
dependency and starting the endpoint in test setup:
String address = "http://0.0.0.0:8080/";
myEndpoint = Endpoint.publish( address, new PaymentServiceImpl() );
Running the test throws BeanCreationException in call to rsc.doSomething():
Error creating bean with name 'scopedTarget.requestScopedEnvironment': Scope 'request' is not active ...
If I change the proxyMode to one of the three other possibilites, the same exception is already thrown when fetching the bean from the appCtxt.
The test is annotated by
#RunWith( SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class )
#ContextConfiguration( classes = {
...,
RequestScopedClass.class
}
)
#WebAppConfiguration
If the application is started by "gradle bootrun" on command line and the soap request is done by the chrome postman application everything is fine and I get the expected soap response.
What can I do that there is a valid request scope when executing the cxf soap server in a unit test?

Meanwhile I found the solution:
...
import org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext;
#Autowired
private ConfigurableApplicationContext myCtxt;
#Before
public void setUp() throws Throwable
{
myCtxt.getBeanFactory().registerScope( "session", new CustomScope4Test() );
myCtxt.getBeanFactory().registerScope( "request", new CustomScope4Test() );
}
public class CustomScope4Test implements Scope
{
private final Map<String, Object> beanMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
/**
* #see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.Scope#get(java.lang.String, org.springframework.beans.factory.ObjectFactory)
*/
public Object get( String name, ObjectFactory<?> factory )
{
Object bean = beanMap.get( name );
if ( null == bean )
{
bean = factory.getObject();
beanMap.put( name, bean );
}
return bean;
}
/**
* #see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.Scope#getConversationId()
*/
public String getConversationId()
{
// not needed
return null;
}
/**
* #see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.Scope#registerDestructionCallback(java.lang.String, java.lang.Runnable)
*/
public void registerDestructionCallback( String arg0, Runnable arg1 )
{
// not needed
}
/**
* #see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.Scope#remove(java.lang.String)
*/
public Object remove( String obj )
{
return beanMap.remove( obj );
}
/**
* #see org.springframework.beans.factory.config.Scope#resolveContextualObject(java.lang.String)
*/
public Object resolveContextualObject( String arg0 )
{
// not needed
return null;
}
}
