=== Batch Testing Configuration Updates
Spring Batch 5 includes the following testing configuration updates:
* <<removal-of-autowiring-from-test-utilities>>
* <<migration-to-junit-jupiter>>
[[removal-of-autowiring-from-test-utilities]]
==== Removal of autowiring from test utilities
Up to version 4.3, the `JobLauncherTestUtils` and `JobRepositoryTestUtils` used
to autowire the job under test as well as the test datasource to facilitate the

In this release, we introduced a few changes to remove the autowiring of such
dependencies in order to avoid any issues while importing those utilities either
manually or through the `@SpringBatchTest` annotation.

==== Migration to JUnit Jupiter
In this relese, the entire test suite of Spring Batch has been migrated to JUnit 5.
While this does not impact end users directly, it helps the Batch team as well as
community contributors to use the next generation of JUnit to write better tests.

to use this backend in this release.
