| Jan 12, 2017 at 16:06 | comment | added | Kevin M | I have tests in a Spring Boot app that tests the front end (api contract) within a Spring container but mocks out the repository/data layer. So it's using mocked repositories/data, but merging the controller layer and doing the jackson marshalling, etc. Integration test. | |
