This guide contains examples that show you how to serialize and deserialize from Java to JSON. It explains how to work with Strings, Objects, LocalDate, Optional, Lists, Maps, etc.
In this post, I’ll show you how to write more readable Unit Tests using a Behavior-Driven Development style (BDD). This is a coding style that is very easy to adopt and, at the same time, brings a huge benefit: it increases your test readability (a lot). Besides, it’s a small change that may drive you to go full-BDD (i.e. writing your test scenarios before your code).
With a practical example, you’ll see how to make this change with two very popular libraries: Mockito (and its BDDMockito implementation) and AssertJ.
Microservices are not always the solution
We, as developers, make mistakes. For example, one of the most common ones is thinking that a new technical solution or paradigm will solve all the problems existing in a given Software Project. That won’t happen, but we’ll be tempted anyway to fall into this trap. Microservices Architecture is one of the most popular traps.
Cucumber is a great framework to create tests using a BDD approach. Unfortunately, the official website doesn’t provide too much documentation, so it might be tricky to set it up. In this post, I’ll show you how to combine Cucumber with Spring Boot using the cucumber-spring library to leverage Dependency Injection.
In this post, you’ll learn how to set up Spring Boot 2 applications to build a Eureka cluster for Service Registration, and how to make use of Service Discovery via clients that can get each other’s information through the Eureka Registry.
