Spring Boot Application and Tests

This guide provides instructions on how to set up and run a Spring Boot application, execute tests, and additional notes.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Java Development Kit (JDK) 21 or higher
• Maven Wrapper (mvnw) included in the project

Running the Spring Boot Application

To run the Spring Boot application locally:

1. Open a terminal or command prompt.

2. Navigate to the root directory of your Spring Boot project.

3. Run the following command:

   ./mvnw spring-boot:run
   
   

Running Unit and Integration Tests

To execute both Unit and Integration tests:

./mvnw clean verify

The clean phase clears the target directory. The verify phase compiles the source code and runs all tests.
