[FIXED] Spring @WebFluxTest is loading @Component s

Issue

I am trying to create a @WebFluxTest in spring to test my controllers.

@WebFluxTest(value = {MyController.class})
public class MyControllerTest {

    @MockBean
    private MyService service;

    @Autowired
    private WebTestClient webTestClient;

    @Test
    void testSomething() {
         ...
    }

However, when I execute the test, I get a lot of: org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException for dependencies of @Component s. Meaning that, Spring is trying to find dependencies of @Component when it should ignore those. I understand that if I use @WebFluxTest, spring should not scan the classpath for any @Component.

My Application class is only annotated with @SpringBootApplication.

What could I be missing here?

SOLUTION UPDATE:

So, I know what was happening. Actually, the class that I had annotated with @Component was an implementation of a WebFilter, and if I check the filter configured for a WebFluxTest (WebFluxTypeExcludeFilter) it adds WebFilter to the include part. That is why Spring was picking it up.
