@Retryable not making retries when triggered by Integration tests In A Spring Boot Application

I have a simple method in a Service in a SpringBoot Application. I have the retry mechanism setup for that method using @Retryable.
I am trying integration tests for the method in the service and the retries are not happening when the method throws an exception. The method gets executed only once. 

public interface ActionService { 

@Retryable(maxAttempts = 3, backoff = @Backoff(delay = 2000))
public void perform() throws Exception;

}



@Service
public class ActionServiceImpl implements ActionService {

@Override   
public void perform() throws Exception() {

   throw new Exception();
  } 
}



@SpringBootApplication
@Import(RetryConfig.class)
public class MyApp {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    SpringApplication.run(MyApp.class, args);
  }
}



@Configuration
@EnableRetry
public class RetryConfig {

@Bean
public ActionService actionService() { return new ActionServiceImpl(); }

}



@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@SpringApplicationConfiguration( classes= {MyApp.class}) 
@IntegrationTest({"server.port:0", "management.port:0"})
public class MyAppIntegrationTest {

@Autowired
private ActionService actionService;

public void testAction() {

  actionService.perform();

}

Biju Thanks for putting up a link for this, it helped me to resolve a lot of questions. The only thing that I had to seperately was I still had to add 'retryAdvice' as a bean in the spring xml based approach, Also had to make sure I had context annotation enabled and aspectj is available at classpath. After I added these below I could get it working.

    <bean id="retryAdvice"
    class="org.springframework.retry.interceptor.RetryOperationsInterceptor">
</bean>

<context:annotation-config />
<aop:aspectj-autoproxy />

Your annotation @EnableRetry is at the wrong place, instead of putting it on the ActionService interface you should place it with a Spring Java based @Configuration class, in this instance with the MyApp class. With this change the retry logic should work as expected. Here is a blog post that I had written on if you are interested in more details - http://biju-allandsundry.blogspot.com/2014/12/spring-retry-ways-to-integrate-with.html
