Annotation Interface MockitoSpyBean

@Target(FIELD) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Documented public @interface MockitoSpyBean
Mark a field to trigger a bean override using a Mockito spy, which will wrap the original instance. If no explicit name() is specified, the annotated field's name is interpreted to be the target of the override. In either case, it is required that the target bean is previously registered in the context.

Dependencies that are known to the application context but are not beans (such as those registered directly) will not be found.
