Java Junit

This covers JUnit 5 fundamentals through advanced parameterized testing patterns. It's solid for teams standardizing on testing conventions or developers moving from JUnit 4 who need the new annotation syntax and parameterized test approaches. The guidance on @ParameterizedTest with @ValueSource, @CsvSource, and @MethodSource is thorough, plus it includes practical setup for Maven/Gradle dependencies. The test naming conventions and AAA pattern recommendations will help maintain readable test suites. One limitation: it focuses heavily on unit testing mechanics but doesn't dive into integration testing strategies or more complex mocking scenarios beyond basic Mockito usage.

Java Testing with JUnit 5/6, AssertJ and Mockito

Framework-neutral guidance for fast, deterministic unit tests. For Spring slices use spring-boot-testing (if installed); for real databases/brokers in Docker use java-testcontainers; for failures you cannot explain, java-debugging.

First: detect, don't impose

Read pom.xml/build.gradle*: JUnit version (junit-jupiter, junit-bom, or inherited from a Spring Boot BOM), assertion library, Mockito, Surefire/Failsafe versions, Java release.
Copy the conventions already in src/test/java (naming, assertion library, static imports, mocking style). Do not introduce AssertJ, Mockito or JaCoCo into a project that lacks them without asking.
Never bump the JUnit major version implicitly; upgrading is its own task (see java-upgrade if installed).
