Unit Tests — Services

@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)
class OrderServiceTest {

    @Mock private OrderRepository orderRepository;

Slice Tests — Controllers (@WebMvcTest)

@WebMvcTest(OrderController.class)
class OrderControllerTest {

    @Autowired MockMvc mockMvc;
    @Autowired ObjectMapper objectMapper;
    @MockitoBean OrderService orderService; // Spring Boot 3.4+: @MockBean is deprecated

    @Test
    @WithMockUser(roles = "USER")
    void createOrder_withValidRequest_shouldReturn201() throws Exception {
        // Given
        var request = new CreateOrderRequest("[email protected]", List.of());
        var order = Order.create("[email protected]");
        when(orderService.createOrder(any())).thenReturn(order);

        // When / Then
        mockMvc.perform(post("/api/v1/orders")
                .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(request)))
            .andExpect(status().isCreated())
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.success").value(true))
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.data.customerEmail").value("[email protected]"));
    }

    @Test
    @WithMockUser
    void createOrder_withInvalidRequest_shouldReturn400() throws Exception {
        mockMvc.perform(post("/api/v1/orders")
                .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .content("{}")) // missing required fields
            .andExpect(status().isBadRequest())
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.success").value(false))
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.error.code").value("VALIDATION_FAILED"));
    }
