Finally! Actual TDD and code and Spring! Well, we’ll start with Spring first. But first a reminder. We’ve already constrained ourselves with the architecture. This is going to be a web based, REST services based Spring application. In the general… Continue Reading…

Product Manager: Man, you still haven’t touched your keyboard? I haven’t seen you doing any Spring or TDD or anything technical yet. Are we going anywhere with this? Me: Of course! It’s calculation time! That’s what you wanted, right? Let’s… Continue Reading…

Now that we’ve covered some of Spring capabilities, we can explore possibilities beyond simple mocking. Instead of “regular” mocks (that we can set up in the integration tests), we can inject actual simulators. For our purpose, let’s define a simulator… Continue Reading…

Here’s the situation: We have a couple of configuration files we use for integration tests. Each of them is a different set of real and mock objects. Some of the objects have behaviors set on them (using Mockito.when) in the… Continue Reading…
