Testing Spring Boot Context Loading in spring-boot-demo

This test suite validates the basic Spring Boot application context loading functionality for the task demonstration module. It ensures proper initialization of the Spring container and verifies that all required beans are correctly configured and loaded.

Test Coverage Overview

The test coverage focuses on the fundamental Spring Boot application context initialization.

Key areas tested include:

Spring context loading and bean initialization
Application configuration validation
Component scanning verification

Implementation Analysis

The testing approach utilizes Spring’s test framework integration with JUnit 4. The implementation leverages @SpringBootTest annotation for full application context loading and @RunWith(SpringRunner.class) for Spring TestContext Framework integration.

Testing patterns include:

Spring Boot test auto-configuration
Context initialization verification
Integration test environment setup

Technical Details

Testing tools and configuration:

JUnit 4 testing framework
Spring Test Context Framework
SpringRunner test executor
SpringBootTest configuration
Automated context loading verification

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test implementation showcases essential Spring Boot testing best practices.

Notable practices include:

Proper test class annotation structure
Clean separation of test configuration
Effective use of Spring Boot test annotations
Minimal test setup overhead
