Spring and Spring Boot provide various annotations and utilities to support testing of different layers of the application. To create an ApplicationContext for integration tests, we can use either @SpringBootTest or @SpringJUnitConfig annotations. The former is a specialized annotation that also provides additional features such as auto-configuration, web environment emulation, and test properties management. The latter is a general-purpose annotation that combines @ContextConfiguration and @ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class) annotations.

To perform slice testing, which focuses on testing a specific layer or feature of the application in isolation, we can use annotations such as @WebMvcTest, @DataJpaTest, @RestClientTest, etc. These annotations will only load the relevant beans for the tested slice and mock or stub the other dependencies.

B. If an embedded database is on the classpath, it will be used to configure a DataSource by default.

This is true because the @DataJpaTest annotation enables auto-configuration of an embedded database if one is available on the classpath, such as H2, HSQLDB, or Derby. This allows the test to run with a temporary and isolated database that can be configured with test data.

D. It auto-configures a TestEntityManager bean.

This is true because the @DataJpaTest annotation provides a TestEntityManager bean that can be used to perform common JPA operations in the test. The TestEntityManager is an alternative to the standard EntityManager that provides some convenience methods and exception translation.

Constructor injection is one of the ways to inject dependencies into a bean using its constructor parameters. Since Spring 4.3, if a bean has only one constructor, the @Autowired annotation can be omitted and Spring will use that constructor by default.

Constructor injection is generally recommended over field injection because it makes the dependencies of a bean explicit and immutable. It also facilitates unit testing because it allows us to easily provide mock dependencies through constructor arguments.
