This document discusses integration testing for microservices using Spring Boot. It covers: 1) the complexities of testing microservice architectures, 2) the anatomy of a microservice, and 3) an effective approach using Spring Boot to implement unit, integration, and component tests. Integration tests with Spring Boot can verify service integration with external dependencies like databases and APIs. Component tests isolate services by mocking external dependencies with tools like WireMock. Additional levels of testing are needed for microservices, and integration testing with containers provides benefits like reliability, configurability and speed.
