Generating tests for Spring: what tests are made of
summary
UnitTestBot, an automated test-generation tool for Java, was extended to handle Spring applications by teaching it unit-test and then integration-test concepts. The presenters describe adding awareness of Spring annotations, application contexts, post-processors, and test configurations so the tool can analyze and generate appropriate tests for Spring-based code.
