springboot-verification

name springboot-verification description Verification loop for Spring Boot projects: build, static analysis, tests with coverage, security scans, and diff review before release or PR. metadata {"origin":"ECC"} Spring Boot Verification Loop Run before PRs, after major changes, and pre-deploy. When to Activate Before opening a pull request for a Spring Boot service After major refactoring or dependency upgrades Pre-deployment verification for staging or production Running full build → lint → test → security scan pipeline Validating test coverage meets thresholds Phase 1: Build mvn -T 4 clean verify -DskipTests # or ./gradlew clean assemble -x test If build fails, stop and fix. Phase 2: Static Analysis Maven (common plugins): mvn -T 4 spotbugs:check pmd:check checkstyle:check Gradle (if configured): ./gradlew checkstyleMain pmdMain spotbugsMain Phase 3: Tests + Coverage mvn -T 4 test mvn jacoco:report # verify 80%+ coverage # or ./gradlew test jacocoTestReport Report: Total tests, passed/failed Coverage % (lines/branches) Unit Tests Test service logic in isolation with mocked dependencies: @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class) class UserServiceTest { @Mock private UserRepository userRepository; @InjectMocks private UserService userService; @Test void createUser_validInput_returnsUser () { var dto = new CreateUserDto ( "Alice" , "alice@example.com" ); var expected = new User ( 1L , "Alice" , "alice@example.com" ); when (userRepository.save(any(User.class))).thenReturn(expected); var result = userService.create(dto); assertThat(result.name()).isEqualTo( "Alice" ); verify(userRepository).save(any(User.class)); } @Test void createUser_duplicateEmail_throwsException () { var dto = new CreateUserDto ( "Alice" , "existing@example.com" ); when (userRepository.existsByEmail(dto.email())).thenReturn( true ); assertThatThrownBy(() -> userService.create(dto)) .isInstanceOf(DuplicateEmailException.class); } } Integration Tests with Testcontainers Test against a real database instead of H2: @SpringBootTest @Testcontainers class UserRepositoryIntegrationTest { @Container static PostgreSQLContainer<?> postgres = new PostgreSQLContainer <>( "postgres:16-alpine" ) .withDatabaseName( "testdb" ); @DynamicPropertySource static void configureProperties (DynamicPropertyRegistry registry) { registry.add( "spring.datasource.url" , postgres::getJdbcUrl); registry.add( "spring.datasource.username" , postgres::getUsername); registry.add( "spring.datasource.password" , postgres::getPassword); } @Autowired private UserRepository userRepository; @Test void findByEmail_existingUser_returnsUser () { userRepository.save( new User ( "Alice" , "alice@example.com" )); var found = userRepository.findByEmail( "alice@example.com" ); assertThat(found).isPresent(); assertThat(found.get().getName()).isEqualTo( "Alice" ); } } API Tests with MockMvc Test controller layer with full Spring context: @WebMvcTest(UserController.class) class UserControllerTest { @Autowired private MockMvc mockMvc; @MockBean private UserService userService; @Test void createUser_validInput_returns201 () throws Exception { var user = new UserDto ( 1L , "Alice" , "alice@example.com" ); when (userService.create(any())).thenReturn(user); mockMvc.perform(post( "/api/users" ) .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) .content( """ {"name": "Alice", "email": "alice@example.com"} """ )) .andExpect(status().isCreated()) .andExpect(jsonPath( "$.name" ).value( "Alice" )); } @Test void createUser_invalidEmail_returns400 () throws Exception { mockMvc.perform(post( "/api/users" ) .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) .content( """ {"name": "Alice", "email": "not-an-email"} """ )) .andExpect(status().isBadRequest()); } } Phase 4: Security Scan # Dependency CVEs mvn org.owasp:dependency-check-maven:check # or ./gradlew dependencyCheckAnalyze # Secrets in source grep -rn "password\s*=\s*\"" src/ --include= "*.java" --include= "*.yml" --include= "*.properties" grep -rn "sk-\|api_key\|secret" src/ --include= "*.java" --include= "*.yml" # Secrets (git history) git secrets --scan # if configured Common Security Findings # Check for System.out.println (use logger instead) grep -rn "System\.out\.print" src/main/ --include="*.java" # Check for raw exception messages in responses grep -rn "e\.getMessage()" src/main/ --include="*.java" # Check for wildcard CORS grep -rn "allowedOrigins.*\*" src/main/ --include="*.java" Phase 5: Lint/Format (optional gate) mvn spotless:apply # if using Spotless plugin ./gradlew spotlessApply Phase 6: Diff Review git diff -- stat git diff Checklist: No debugging logs left ( System.out , log.debug without guards) Meaningful errors and HTTP statuses Transactions and validation present where needed Config changes documented Output Template VERIFICATION REPORT =================== Build: [PASS/FAIL] Static: [PASS/FAIL] (spotbugs/pmd/checkstyle) Tests: [PASS/FAIL] (X/Y passed, Z% coverage) Security: [PASS/FAIL] (CVE findings: N) Diff: [X files changed] Overall: [READY / NOT READY] Issues to Fix: 1. ... 2. ... Continuous Mode Re-run phases on significant changes or every 30–60 minutes in long sessions Keep a short loop: mvn -T 4 test + spotbugs for quick feedback Remember : Fast feedback beats late surprises. Keep the gate strict—treat warnings as defects in production systems.
