How to access Spring context in jUnit tests annotated with @RunWith and @ContextConfiguration?

I have following test class

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {"/services-test-config.xml"})
public class MySericeTest {

  @Autowired
  MyService service;
...

}

Is it possible to access services-test-config.xml programmatically in one of such methods? Like:

ApplicationContext ctx = somehowGetContext();

This works fine too:

@Autowired
ApplicationContext context;

Since the tests will be instantiated like a Spring bean too, you just need to implement the ApplicationContextAware interface:

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {"/services-test-config.xml"})
public class MySericeTest implements ApplicationContextAware
{

  @Autowired
  MyService service;
...
	@Override
	public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext context)
			throws BeansException
	{
		// Do something with the context here
	}
}

For non xml needs, you can also do this:

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
/* must provide some "root" for the app-context, use unit-test file name to the context is empty */
@ContextConfiguration(classes = MyUnitTestClass.class)
public class MyUnitTestClass implements ApplicationContextAware {

If your test class extends the Spring JUnit classes
(e.g., AbstractTransactionalJUnit4SpringContextTests or any other class that extends AbstractSpringContextTests), you can access the app context by calling the getContext() method.
Check out the javadocs for the package org.springframework.test.

It's possible to inject instance of ApplicationContext class by using SpringClassRule and SpringMethodRule rules. It might be very handy if you would like to use another non-Spring runners. Here's an example:

@ContextConfiguration(classes = BeanConfiguration.class)
public static class SpringRuleUsage {

	@ClassRule
	public static final SpringClassRule springClassRule = new SpringClassRule();

	@Rule
	public final SpringMethodRule springMethodRule = new SpringMethodRule();

	@Autowired
	private ApplicationContext context;

	@Test
	public void shouldInjectContext() {
 	}
}
