Spring Boot 4 Microservices & REST APIs · Lesson

Unit Testing with JUnit and Mockito

Test components in isolation.

Why Unit Tests

A unit test verifies a single class in isolation, with its collaborators replaced by fakes.

  • Fast — no Spring context, no database
  • Focused — tests one piece of logic
  • Reliable — no external dependencies

JUnit 5 Basics

Spring Boot uses JUnit 5 (Jupiter). A test is a method annotated with @Test.

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.*;

class CalculatorTest {
    @Test
    void addsTwoNumbers() {
        assertEquals(5, 2 + 3);
    }
}
