“Testing in Spring Boot applications is easy, just use @SpringBootTest and you're done.” What sounds so simple in theory, often looks like magic and sometimes causes problems later on.

Therefore, in this session, we will take a look behind the curtain to gain better insight into how all of this actually works. Besides that, we will touch on topics such as unit or slice testing.

I assure you that after this session, you will have a more in-depth understanding of how the Spring Boot Test magic works.
