Software Architecture with Spring 5.0

Testing

Up until now, we have introduced unit tests to validate that the code is working as expected. However, we would like to add even more tests. After all, the more tests we include in our system, the more confidence we will gain.

Since we are writing a rest API, we will create a simple script that will exercise our endpoints from time to time, giving us the confidence that the app is always working. To achieve this goal, our tests will follow a simple process:

1. Authenticate the user using the endpoint.
2. Validate the status code from the response.
3. Take the token from the response body.
4. Hit the balance endpoint using the token.
5. Validate the status code from the response.

The easiest way to achieve this goal is by using Postman ( https://www.getpostman.com/ ...
