Spring Test returning 401 for unsecured URLs : <p>I am using Spring for MVC tests</p>

<p>Here is my test class</p>

<pre><code>@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@WebMvcTest
public class ITIndexController {

    @Autowired
    WebApplicationContext context;

    MockMvc mockMvc;

    @MockBean
    UserRegistrationApplicationService userRegistrationApplicationService;

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders
                        .webAppContextSetup(context)
                        .apply(springSecurity())
                        .build();
    }

    @Test
    public void should_render_index() throws Exception {
        mockMvc.perform(get("/"))
            .andExpect(status().isOk())
            .andExpect(view().name("index"))
            .andExpect(content().string(containsString("Login")));
    }
}
</code></pre>

<p>Here is the MVC config</p>

<pre><code>@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
public class MvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
    @Override
    public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
        registry.addViewController("/").setViewName("index");
        registry.addViewController("/login/form").setViewName("login");
    }
}
</code></pre>

<p>Here is the security config</p>

<pre><code>@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Autowired
    @Qualifier("customUserDetailsService")
    UserDetailsService userDetailsService;

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.authorizeRequests()
            .antMatchers("/resources/**", "/signup", "/signup/form", "/").permitAll()
            .anyRequest().authenticated()
                .and()
            .formLogin()
                .loginPage("/login/form").permitAll().loginProcessingUrl("/login").permitAll()
                .and()
            .logout().logoutSuccessUrl("/login/form?logout").permitAll()
                .and()
            .csrf().disable();
    }

    @Autowired
    public void configureGlobalFromDatabase(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
        auth.userDetailsService(userDetailsService);
    }
}
</code></pre>

<p>When I run my test it fails with the message:</p>

<p>I understand that it fails due to the fact that the url is protected with spring security, but when I run my application I can access that url even without being authenticated.</p>

<p>Am I doing something wrong?</p>
