Spring Boot Aspectj test with MockMvc

I have a Spring boot code with Aspectj. This code has written with basic MVC architecture. Then I just try to test it with MockMVC. But when I try to test it, Aspectj doesn't interrupted. Is there a special configuration about Aspectj?

Controller:

@GetMapping("user/{userId}/todo-list")
public ResponseEntity<?> getWaitingItems(@RequestUser CurrentUser currentUser){
    ...handle it with service method.
}

Aspect:

@Pointcut("execution(* *(.., @RequestUser (*), ..))")
void annotatedMethod()
{
}

@Before("annotatedMethod() && @annotation(requestUser)")
public void adviseAnnotatedMethods(JoinPoint joinPoint, RequestUser requestUser)
{
    ...
}

Test:

@WebMvcTest(value = {Controller.class, Aspect.class})
@ActiveProfiles("test")
@ContextConfiguration(classes = {Controller.class, Aspect.class})
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
public class ControllerTest
{
    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Autowired
    private WebApplicationContext webApplicationContext;

    @Autowired
    private Controller controller;

    @MockBean
    private Service service;

    @Before
    public void setUp()
    {
        mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders
                .webAppContextSetup(webApplicationContext)
                .build();
    }

    @Test
    public void getWaitingItems() throws Exception
    {
        mockMvc.perform(get("/user/{userId}/todo-list", 1L))
                .andExpect(status().isOk());
    }
}

Spring @WebMvcTest will only instantiate web layer and it will not load complete application context

However, in this test, Spring Boot instantiates only the web layer rather than the whole context.

In order to test Aspectj you need to load whole application context using @SpringBootTest annotation

The @SpringBootTest annotation tells Spring Boot to look for a main configuration class (one with @SpringBootApplication, for instance) and use that to start a Spring application context

So annotate the test using @SpringBootTest annotation

@SpringBootTest
@ActiveProfiles("test")
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
public class ControllerTest {

   @Autowired
   private MockMvc mockMvc;

   @Autowired
   private WebApplicationContext webApplicationContext;

   @Autowired
   private Controller controller;

   @Before
   public void setUp() {
    mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders
            .webAppContextSetup(webApplicationContext)
            .build();
      }

    @Test
    public void getWaitingItems() throws Exception  {
    mockMvc.perform(get("/user/{userId}/todo-list", 1L))
            .andExpect(status().isOk());
         }
    }
