Our sleep is better with longer-scoped tests. Our life is brighter if we don’t rely heavily on fine-grained tests that break whenever we refactor even the smallest detail. I’m talking about tilting the balance towards more integration than unit testing. And for that, let’s look at the testing features offered by the most used Java Framework today. We’ll see how to write fake test implementations, how to mock an unwanted Spring bean, what a Transactional Test is, and if and how to test your web endpoints. Along the way, we’ll also see Flaky tests, and discuss best practices about integration testing – all in an entertaining live coding session. 

Your takeaways from this talk will be a lot of good practices and techniques directly applicable to your day-to-day project.
