Mocking is an essential part of unit testing, and the Mockito library makes it easy to write clean and intuitive unit tests for your Java code.
Get started with mocking and improve your application tests using our Mockito guide:
Handling concurrency in an application can be a tricky process with many potential pitfalls. A solid grasp of the fundamentals will go a long way to help minimize these issues.
Get started with understanding multi-threaded applications with our Java Concurrency guide:
Spring 5 added support for reactive programming with the Spring WebFlux module, which has been improved upon ever since. Get started with the Reactor project basics and reactive programming in Spring Boot:
Since its introduction in Java 8, the Stream API has become a staple of Java development. The basic operations like iterating, filtering, mapping sequences of elements are deceptively simple to use.
But these can also be overused and fall into some common pitfalls.
To get a better understanding on how Streams work and how to combine them with other language features, check out our guide to Java Streams:
Get started with Spring and Spring Boot, through the Learn Spring course:
>> LEARN SPRINGExplore Spring Boot 3 and Spring 6 in-depth through building a full REST API with the framework:
Yes, Spring Security can be complex, from the more advanced functionality within the Core to the deep OAuth support in the framework.
I built the security material as two full courses - Core and OAuth, to get practical with these more complex scenarios. We explore when and how to use each feature and code through it on the backing project.
You can explore the course here:
Spring Data JPA is a great way to handle the complexity of JPA with the powerful simplicity of Spring Boot.

Refactor Java code safely — and automatically — with OpenRewrite.
Refactoring big codebases by hand is slow, risky, and easy to put off. That’s where OpenRewrite comes in. The open-source framework for large-scale, automated code transformations helps teams modernize safely and consistently.
Each month, the creators and maintainers of OpenRewrite at Moderne run live, hands-on training sessions — one for newcomers and one for experienced users. You’ll see how recipes work, how to apply them across projects, and how to modernize code with confidence.
Join the next session, bring your questions, and learn how to automate the kind of work that usually eats your sprint time.
In this very quick tutorial, I will show how to get and validate the StatusCode of the HTTP Response using HttpClient.
If you want to dig deeper and learn other cool things you can do with the HttpClient – head on over to the main HttpClient tutorial.
After sending the Http request – we get back an instance of org.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.classic.ClosableHttpResponse – which allows us to access directly the Status Code:
response.getCode()Using this, we can validate that the code we receive from the server is indeed correct:
@Test
public final void givenGetRequestExecuted_whenAnalyzingTheResponse_thenCorrectStatusCode() throws IOException {
final HttpGet request = new HttpGet(SAMPLE_URL);
try (CloseableHttpClient client = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
CloseableHttpResponse response = (CloseableHttpResponse) client
.execute(request, new CustomHttpClientResponseHandler())) {
assertThat(response.getCode(), equalTo(HttpStatus.SC_OK));
}
}Notice that we’re using the predefined Status Codes also available in the library via org.apache.hc.core5.http.HttpStatus.
This very simple example shows how to retrieve and work with Status Codes with the Apache HttpClient.
Baeldung Pro comes with both absolutely No-Ads as well as finally with Dark Mode, for a clean learning experience:
Once the early-adopter seats are all used, the price will go up and stay at $33/year.
The Apache HTTP Client is a very robust library, suitable for both simple and advanced use cases when testing HTTP endpoints. Check out our guide covering basic request and response handling, as well as security, cookies, timeouts, and more:

Modern Java teams move fast — but codebases don’t always keep up. Frameworks change, dependencies drift, and tech debt builds until it starts to drag on delivery. OpenRewrite was built to fix that: an open-source refactoring engine that automates repetitive code changes while keeping developer intent intact.
The monthly training series, led by the creators and maintainers of OpenRewrite at Moderne, walks through real-world migrations and modernization patterns. Whether you’re new to recipes or ready to write your own, you’ll learn practical ways to refactor safely and at scale.
If you’ve ever wished refactoring felt as natural — and as fast — as writing code, this is a good place to start.
