Here is test case:

package findby;

import java.util.stream.Stream;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.domain.EntityScan;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.orm.jpa.DataJpaTest;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.AbstractPersistable;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaSpecificationExecutor;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.config.EnableJpaRepositories;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;

import jakarta.persistence.Entity;

@DataJpaTest
@EnableJpaRepositories(basePackageClasses = FindByTests.TestEntityRepository.class, considerNestedRepositories = true)
@EntityScan(basePackageClasses = FindByTests.TestEntity.class)
@ContextConfiguration(classes = FindByTests.class)
class FindByTests {

	@Autowired
	TestEntityRepository repository;

	@Test
	void findBy() {
		// will throw java.lang.IllegalStateException: No MethodInvocation found
		repository.findBy((root, query, cb) -> null, Function.identity()).stream();
	}

	@Test
	void findByInDefaultMethod() {
		// works fine
		repository.findByInDefaultMethod();
	}

	interface TestEntityRepository extends JpaRepository<TestEntity, Long>, JpaSpecificationExecutor<TestEntity> {

		default Stream<TestEntity> findByInDefaultMethod() {
			return findBy((root, query, cb) -> null, Function.identity()).stream();
		}

	}

	@Entity
	static class TestEntity extends AbstractPersistable<Long> {

	}

}

with

plugins {
	id 'java'

}

I also ecountered this using "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb"

Thank you @quaff for reporting and adding the test snippet. The current behaviour, though unintuitive, is the expected one. The findBy method in this case exposes the FetchableFluentQuery outside the repository. So when the stream invocation happens the context is already gone.

We're considering to enhance the current flow so that we capture method metadata early and can provide it later on in this scenario.

Meanwhile you can try it this way repository.findBy((root, query, cb) -> null, FetchableFluentQuery::stream).

Thanks, it works, does the document mention such limitation?

Unfortunately not, all samples are using one of the terminating (one, first, all,...) methods.
