Accessing lazy loaded entity object in Junit

I am trying to test a entity value in Junit, the entity has many-to-many relation with lazy fetch type. When I try to expand this in Junit I am getting the following error. Please hightlight if my understanding is wrong, all I need is to have the session opened in Junit and load this object. SEVERE: failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: com.example.stock.model.Stock.locations, no session or session was closed org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException: failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: com.example.stock.model.Stock.locations, no session or session was closed at org.hibernate.collection.AbstractPersistentCollection.throwLazyInitializationException(AbstractPersistentCollection.java:358) at org.hibernate.collection.AbstractPersistentCollection.throwLazyInitializationExceptionIfNotConnected(AbstractPersistentCollection.java:350) at org.hibernate.collection.AbstractPersistentCollection.initialize(AbstractPersistentCollection.java:343) at org.hibernate.collection.AbstractPersistentCollection.read(AbstractPersistentCollection.java:86) at org.hibernate.collection.PersistentBag.iterator(PersistentBag.java:249) at com.example.common.StockManytoManyTest.testGetStock(StockManytoManyTest.java:53) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39)
