Software Architecture with Spring 5.0

pom.xml

This file contains the necessary dependencies to run a Spring Boot application. Let's review the file's content, as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>  ...  <parent>    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>    <artifactId>Spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>    <version>1.5.8.RELEASE</version>    <relativePath/>  </parent>  ...  <dependencies>    <dependency>      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>      <artifactId>Spring-boot-starter</artifactId>    </dependency>    <dependency>      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>      <artifactId>Spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>      <scope>test</scope>    </dependency>  </dependencies>  ...</project>

The parent pom section provides the necessary dependency and plugin management for the application.
