Testing: How We Developers Do It on the Backend
summary
Shows how backend testing addresses different risks using unit tests, Spring-based integration tests, and occasional end-to-end checks in a Java codebase; demonstrates a small "alkomat" test app, parameterized CSV data and local integration runs. Covers property-based testing and mutation testing to find weak tests, and touches on deployment strategies (canary/A‑B) and microbenchmarks to validate behavior and performance.
