Spring Testing with JUnit4 Runner does not work after trying different solutions

When autowiring my spring test class with the JUnit4 Test Runner the context startup yields the following exception:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'com.mypackage.TestClass': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; 
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: com.mypackage.ServiceClass com.mypackage.TestClass.service; 
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [com.mypackage.ServiceClass] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency. Dependency annotations: {@org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired(required=true)}

My Setup

The TestClass is annotated as followed

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {"classpath:spring/testContext.xml"})

The autowired fields are annotated like this

 @Autowired
 ACrudRepository repository; // is autowired

 @Autowired
 @Qualifier("service")
 ServiceClass service; // is NOT autowired

The testContext.xml has the following Bean definition (and some more):

<bean class="com.mypackage.ServiceClass" id="service">
    <property name="someBoolean" value="false"/>
    <property name="otherBoolean" value="false"/>
    <property name="someList">
      <list><value>withOneValue</value></list>
    </property>
</bean>

<jpa:repositories base-package="com.mypackage"/>

The problem in this projekt (which was not mentioned here) was the <tx:annotation-driven/> tag and @Transactional annotation in the autowired bean. This annotation usualy uses java interface-based-proxy which can not be autowired, because they are not of the same type of the class.

To Fix this we used the tag <tx:annotation-driven proxy-target-class="true"/>.
