Answer 1

When using #SpringBatchTest, it is expected that the test context contains a single job bean. This is mentioned in the javadoc of the annotation.
There is an open issue for that which we might consider for the next major release. Please upvote or add a comment if you have a suggestion for an improvement. I also invite you to check the thread on Multiple Job unit testing with #SpringBatchTest which could help you as well.
