SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires junit-jupiter, mockito-core, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Writing comprehensive and correctly structured unit tests for Spring Boot applications, especially with Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles, can be complex and time-consuming. Ensuring strict validation and proper mock interactions is crucial but often overlooked, leading to brittle code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • DDD-Compliant Structure: Guides the creation of unit tests aligned with Domain-Driven Design package structures, promoting maintainability.
  • JUnit5 & Mockito Integration: Leverages industry-standard tools for effective mocking and testing of business logic.
  • Strict Validation: Enforces "Fail Fast" principles, rigorously checking all DTO fields, mock calls, and exception messages, and preventing unintended side effects.
  • Use Case: Automatically generate a new unit test for a UserService method, ensuring it correctly handles valid inputs, throws appropriate exceptions for invalid cases, and verifies repository interactions according to DDD principles.

Quick Start

Generate a unit test for the createUser method in UserService, ensuring it follows DDD principles and uses strict validation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write unit tests for Spring Boot services using JUnit5 and Mockito?

JUnit5 and Mockito enable automated unit testing by providing annotations for test setup, mock object creation, and assertion verification. This Skill generates JUnit5 + Mockito tests for Spring Boot domain services, entities, and repositories, following the Arrange-Act-Assert pattern with strict field validation and mock interaction verification to ensure code quality and DDD alignment.

What is Domain-Driven Design testing and why does it matter for Spring Boot applications?

Domain-Driven Design (DDD) testing ensures unit tests align with bounded contexts and domain logic by validating service behavior, repository interactions, and entity state changes within organized package structures. This approach prevents side effects, enforces DTO-only returns, and maintains test integrity across create, read, update, and delete operations.

Can I automate test generation for DDD-structured Spring Boot projects?

Yes. This Skill automates rigorous unit test creation for DDD-structured Spring Boot applications by generating tests in app/backend/{service}/src/test/java with enforced naming conventions (test_{target}_{scenario}_{expected}), explicit field assertions, mock call verification, and exception message validation.

How do I ensure my Spring Boot tests follow strict validation and fail-fast principles?

Strict validation in unit tests requires explicit field assertions on all DTO properties, mock interaction verification, exception message validation, and non-side-effect checks. This Skill enforces fail-fast behavior across CRUD scenarios, preventing unintended side effects and ensuring entities are never directly returned instead of DTOs.

What test structure and naming conventions should I use for Spring Boot unit tests?

Effective unit test naming follows the pattern test_{target}_{scenario}_{expected}, organizing tests within DDD-compliant package structures. The Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) pattern structures each test: arrange mock dependencies, act on the service method, and assert DTO field values, mock calls, and exception messages.

Does this approach work with repository and entity testing in Spring Boot?

Yes. This Skill generates unit tests for domain services, entities, and repositories within DDD-structured Spring Boot applications, verifying repository interactions, enforcing DTO conversion checks, and validating that no entity is directly returned from service methods.
