    • overview 
    • starters
    • spring configuration
    • externalized configuration
    • logging
    • testing
    • production ready

Chain of responsibility

  • comes under behavioral patterns
  • chain of receiver objects having the responsibility, depending on run-time conditions, to either handle a request or forward it to the next receiver on the chain
  • Real implementation: servlet filters

Spring boot overview

  • for easy to create stand-alone, production-grade Spring-based Applications
  • no code generation and non XML configuration
  • gradle / maven support
  • java / kotlin / groovy
  • easy to start with intializr
  • executable jar vs. war
  • spring boot CLI
  • supported of many cloud platform (heroku, cloundfoundry, aws, azure, ...)
  • ready to production features

Starters

  • set of convenient dependency descriptors that you can include in your application
  • contain a lot of the dependencies
  • name pattern: spring-boot-starter-*

Configuration

  • Automatically configure Spring application based on inclulded jar dependencies
  • Application class - place in root package
  • @EnableAutoConfiguration
  • @ComponentScan - default root package
  • @SpringBootApplication
    • @Configuration
    • @EnableAutoConfiguration
    • @ComponentScan

Externalized configuration

Logging

Testing

Production ready

Lombok

  • Generation of getters, setters, constructos, toString, hashCode, ...
  • IntelliJ plugin
  • Other IDE plugins

Integration testing

Java itegration tests

  • maven-failsafe-plugin
    •  designed for running integration tests
    • name convention *IT.java, *IT*.java, *ITCase.java
    • runs in verify maven phase (not in test phase)
  • IT of repository layer
    • HyperSQL vs. Derby vs. H2
    • Pros:  Fast, no external resoruces needed, easy to run in CI
    • Cons: Not real prduction database, SQL syntax can differ, may lead to separate SQL scripts

Java unit tests

  • maven-surefire-plugin
    • designed for running unit tests
    • name convention *Test.java, *TestCase.java
    • runs in test maven phase (not in verify phase)
  • Can use Spring context, but not all of it and should not test the integration
