Build enterprise applications with Spring Boot
Learn the ins and outs of Spring Boot in this hands-on training
Description
In this training you start with the Spring Framework, a framework for building enterprise applications. In about 1 day you will get to know the relevant concepts of the Spring Framework, which you will then take to Spring Boot, which is built on top of the Spring Framework.
Through the structure of this training, you will learn to understand the Dependency Injection mechanism and the magic behind Spring Boot's AutoConfiguration. Many of the most important Spring Boot modules are discussed and after this training you will have a good idea of ??what Spring Boot has to offer.
In this training you will also work with assignments that you develop with Spring Boot. These assignments have a Test Driven Development (TDD) approach. In this way you not only gain hands-on experience with Spring Boot, but also with the test functionality available in Spring Boot.
