Grails 2.4.4: services does not inject: integration test

I have service with dependency service like:

class ParserService {
    def depService;

    private def parseLine(lineParts) {
    ...
    def set = depService.findItemByName(tmpModule.name);//depService == null
    ...

I try to implement integration test like:

@TestFor(ParserService)
class ParserServiceTest extends IntegrationSpec {
    def "should not parse comment"() {
        when:
        ...
        def resultList = service.parseAnnotations(inputStream);

resources.groovy:

beans = {
}

And I have NullPointerException: depService - null

Do you have a service called DepService? make sure your spelling is correct - dsharew
I have depService. I can run application(not test) - and all works fine. - yazabara
Also try to post more code, how are you calling the service(using the service) - dsharew

The @TestFor annotation is only for unit tests. The integration tests work like a normal beans, so Grails/Spring will inject your dependencies in your tests if you define the services as properties in your class, like in a controller/service/domain class.

Your test case should extend the class GroovyTestCase or IntegrationSpec and that's pretty much it. Of course the dependency injection then works the usual way 

class ParserServiceTest extends IntegrationSpec {
   ParserService parserService

   def "should not parse comment"() {
    when:
    ...
    def resultList = parserService.parseAnnotations(inputStream)
...
