Beginner Roadmap for Testing in Java (Maven + Spring Projects)

✅ Phase 1: Understand the Basics (Day 1–2)

What to Learn:

• What is testing and why it matters

• Types of testing: Unit, Integration, End-to-End

• Manual vs Automated testing

Tools:

• JUnit 5 (Java testing framework)

• Maven (for dependency management)

Goal:

• Write and run your first test case using JUnit

Resources:

• JUnit 5 User Guide: https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/

• YouTube: “JUnit 5 for Beginners”

✅ Phase 2: Learn JUnit 5 (Day 3–4)

What to Practice:

• Writing test methods with @Test

• Assertions: assertEquals, assertTrue, assertNotNull, etc.

• Lifecycle annotations: @BeforeEach, @AfterEach

Goal:

• Create and test a simple Calculator class

Sample Code:

@Test
void testAdd() {
assertEquals(5, calculator.add(2, 3));
}

✅ Phase 3: Mocking with Mockito (Day 5–6)


What to Learn:

• Concept of mocking

• Faking dependencies (e.g., JdbcTemplate)

• Annotations: @Mock, @InjectMocks, when().thenReturn()

Goal:

• Test a class with a dependency using Mockito

Resources:

• YouTube: “Mockito Basics for Beginners”

✅ Phase 4: Integration Testing with H2 + Spring (Day 7–9)

What to Learn:

• In-memory DB with H2

• Spring test context: @ContextConfiguration

• Writing schema.sql and data.sql

Goal:

• Write integration test that loads Spring context and performs real DB
operations

✅ Phase 5: Combine in a Real Maven Project (Day 10–12)

Project Ideas:

• Simple CRUD app (Employee, Product, Book)

What to Test:

• Service layer with Mockito

• DAO layer with H2 or Mockito

Goal:

• Add working tests to a Maven project

• Push to GitHub with README

⚙ Maven Dependencies for Testing:


<!-- JUnit 5 -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
<artifactId>junit-jupiter</artifactId>
<version>5.10.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

<!-- Mockito -->


<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
<version>5.12.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

<!-- Spring Test -->


<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-test</artifactId>
<version>5.3.34</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

<!-- H2 Database -->


<dependency>
<groupId>com.h2database</groupId>
<artifactId>h2</artifactId>
<version>2.2.224</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

📘 Good Practices for Beginners:

• Test one feature per test method

• Use descriptive test method names: shouldSaveEmployeeSuccessfully()

• Don't test external libraries

• Use @BeforeEach for common test setup

🚀 Next Steps:

• Apply testing to your existing Maven project

• Create a GitHub repo with tested code


• Add this skill to your resume for fresher roles!
