Verifying that the application behaves correctly at every layer
Steps in Testing in Spring Boot
- Unit Testing with JUnit 5 — advanced · Writing and organizing unit tests with JUnit 5's annotations and assertions
- Mocking with Mockito — advanced · Isolating the class under test by mocking its dependencies
- Testing Controllers with MockMvc — advanced · Testing REST controllers without starting a full HTTP server
- Integration Testing with @SpringBootTest — advanced · Testing the wired-together application context, closer to how it runs in production
- Testcontainers for Database Testing — advanced · Running integration tests against a real, disposable database in a container
- Test-Driven Development (TDD) Basics — advanced · Writing a failing test first, then the minimum code to make it pass
