Learning Spring Boot 3.0 - Third Edition

By: Greg L. Turnquist

Overview of this book

Spring Boot 3 brings more than just the powerful ability to build secure web apps on top of a rock-solid database. It delivers new options for testing, deployment, Docker support, and native images for GraalVM, along with ways to squeeze out more efficient usage of existing resources. This third edition of the bestseller starts off by helping you build a simple app, and then shows you how to secure, test, bundle, and deploy it to production. Next, you’ll familiarize yourself with the ability to go “native” and release using GraalVM. As you advance, you’ll explore reactive programming and get a taste of scalable web controllers and data operations. The book goes into detail about GraalVM native images and deployment, teaching you how to secure your application using both routes and method-based rules and enabling you to apply the lessons you’ve learned to any problem. If you want to gain a thorough understanding of building robust applications using the core functionality of Spring Boot, then this is the book for you. By the end of this Spring Boot book, you’ll be able to build an entire suite of web applications using Spring Boot and deploy them to any platform you need.

Summary

Throughout this chapter, we have explored multiple ways to write test cases. We have seen simple tests, midgrade tests, and complex ones. All of these give us ways to test different aspects of our application.

And each tactic has various tradeoffs. We can get our hands on real database engines if we’re willing to spend the extra runtime. We can also ensure our security policies are properly shaken out with both unauthorized and fully authorized users.

Hopefully, this has whet your appetite to fully embrace testing in your applications.

In the next chapter, Configuring an Application with Spring Boot, we’ll learn how to parameterize, configure, and override settings for our application.
