Spring autowired bean for @Aspect aspect is null

The aspect is a singleton object and is created outside the Spring container. A solution with XML configuration is to use Spring’s factory method to retrieve the aspect. <bean id=”syncLoggingAspect” class=”uk.co.demo.SyncLoggingAspect” factory-method=”aspectOf” /> With this configuration the aspect will be treated as any other Spring bean and the autowiring will work as normal.

Unit testing Spring @Around AOP methods

You can test a Spring Aspect by creating a proxy programatically: MyInterface target = new MyClass(); AspectJProxyFactory factory = new AspectJProxyFactory(target); MyAspect aspect = new MyAspect(arg); factory.addAspect(aspect); MyInterface proxy = factory.getProxy(); … then you can call methods on proxy, and make assertions about aspect, proxy and target.
