Tutorial: Creating Testable Applications with MicroProfile and CDI

In the microservices era, the market is changing faster and faster, requiring agility from our systems to meet the changes promptly. The need for speed requires that our applications be tested quickly, efficiently, and those tests be reliable.  Developers need to reduce the coupling between the classes, and Dependency Injection allows coders to reach low coupling. One of the features that MicroProfile provides in an agnostic way is precisely that, with the JSR 365.

In this tutorial,  developers will learn how to create an application using MicroProfile and the JSR 365: Contexts and Dependency Injection for Java™ 2.0 (CDI) specification to write and maintain code that is testable and loosely coupled.

Why Should You Consider Using MicroProfile In Your Microservices?

When you use MicroProfile you are free to choose any compliant runtime and the slogan “Write once, run anywhere” becomes great again. Being able to move your applications to different runtimes gives you the freedom to choose the best vendor for your needs, and when you are no longer satisfied, or if a better one comes up, you can just switch it, since using MicroProfile helps you avoid the vendor lock-in.

A little bit of history:

“Write once, run anywhere” was the slogan created by Sun Microsystems in 1995 when the first Java version came out. One of the things that allowed this was the creation of specifications for the Java Language and the Java Virtual Machine.

With those specifications, we don’t have to worry about how a feature was implemented. Every implementation must run a Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK), which consists of a suite test that guarantees that the runtime implements all the specifications.

Four years after Java was released, the community created the Enterprise Edition of the Java Platform (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition or J2EE).
