I am new to spring boot, so I don't understand what caused the error mentioned above here since everything gives no warnings and is imported from official libraries

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.orm.jpa.DataJpaTest import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.orm.jpa.TestEntityManager import javax.sql.DataSource @DataJpaTest class RepositoryTest{ @Autowired lateinit var entityManager: TestEntityManager @Autowired lateinit var dataSource: DataSource @Test fun `context loads`(){ Assertions.assertNotNull(entityManager) Assertions.assertNotNull(dataSource) } }

Stack trace:

    can you share the stacktrace? Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 12:17

    What dependencies does your application have? Spring Boot is trying to replace your main database with an embedded database specifically for testing. That requires you application to have a dependency on H2 or HSQLDB. Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 14:39
  • I added H2 to the dependencies, but still the same error. Do I need to register H2 as a database anywhere or does spring do that on its own? Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 16:37
  • The error should not occur with H2 on the classpath. Can you share a complete yet minimal sample that reproduces it? Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 17:00

It may be worth explaining a bit about how to read error messages with stack traces, as many people seem to struggle with it.

When the JVM hits a problem it can't handle (whether from Kotlin code, or Java, or anything else it runs), it throws an Exception, Error, or other Throwable. That usually prints out a lot of info which gets shown on the console and/or in the logs. It can be intimidating, but it's really helpful in finding out what went wrong and how to fix it. (That's why it's usually a good idea to include it all when posting questions to places like StackOverflow.)

A stack trace shows exactly what code was running at the point when the problem happened. It's in reverse order: the top line has the exact line where it happened; below that is the method which called that one, then the one which called that, and so on up to the top level.

Each line gives the method that was running, and the fully-qualified name of the class it's defined in. (This is the JVM's internal name, so inner classes and anonymous classes are separated from their containing class with a $.) If available, it also gives the filename and line number of the source code from which it was compiled.

So the most interesting line of a stack trace is usually the top one, as that shows where the problem occurred. Of course, that might not be where the underlying bug is — especially when the top line is in a library or framework, as it is here. So you may need to search down the stack trace (i.e. up the call stack) to find your code, and then go from there.

However, exceptions don't always stand alone — one exception can cause another, and so on. When printing an exception, its stack trace will be followed by its cause, and then the cause of that, right back to the original exception. These are indicated by the prefix Caused by:.

Usually, the original exception is the most relevant. So here is the usual way to read a big JVM error message with stack trace(s):

  1. Scan down to find the last exception message. This is the last line starting with Caused by:, or else the very top line.
  2. Read that line carefully. It will have the classname of the exception or error, and usually a message giving details. This may tell you all you need to know. If not:
  3. Look at the next line, which shows you exactly where in the code this exception/error was thrown.
  4. If that's in a library or framework, scan down until you find a line referring to your own code.
  5. If you don't find such a line, go back to the previous exception message, and repeat.
  6. If you do find your own code, look at your source code and see if you can figure out what happened. (If you don't, then the error can be harder to track down; the library/framework methods listed may give you some clues.)

In this case, the last exception is:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to replace DataSource with an embedded database for tests. If you want an embedded database please put a supported one on the classpath or tune the replace attribute of @AutoConfigureTestDatabase.

That tells you the real problem here. (So you don't even need to look at the following stack trace. Which is good, because Spring initialisation problems usually happen when none of your code is actually running, so the stack traces are less helpful.)

I don't have a full answer for what to do about it, though I think you'll need to configure a test database for it to use. I've had good results with an H2 in-memory database, so you might want to look at that. A quick search finds several existing questions about it, so you should be able to find what you need to know.

Thank you for this answer! I will try to resolve the problem with the links you provided

I had this problem too and it happened because I put the application-testrail.yml in the wrong place, so I moved it to the resources folder and it solved this problem.
