name: kotlin-testing description: Kotlin testing with JUnit 5, MockK, Spring test slices, and fast feedback commands. Provides single test execution, incremental builds, and JetBrains MCP integration for rapid TDD cycles. Use when writing tests for Kotlin/Spring code, running specific tests, or debugging test failures.

Kotlin Testing

🚀 MANDATORY: Fast Feedback Workflow

이 워크플로우를 반드시 따르세요. 개발 속도가 10배 이상 빨라집니다.

개발 사이클 (매 코드 수정마다 반복)

1. 코드 수정
2. IDE 검사 (0-2초)     → jetbrains.get_file_problems(...)
3. 단일 테스트 (5-10초)  → ./gradlew :module:test --tests "*Test"
4. 반복
5. 기능 완료 후 (1회만)  → ./gradlew build

⚠️ 금지 패턴 (절대 사용 금지)

# ❌ 개발 중 절대 금지
./gradlew clean build        # 60-120초 낭비!
./gradlew test               # 전체 테스트 금지!
./gradlew clean              # clean 불필요!

# ✅ 올바른 사용
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*ServiceTest"      # 5-10초
./gradlew :module-server-api:test --tests "*ControllerTest"    # 5-10초

JetBrains MCP 먼저 사용 (STEP 1)

코드 수정 후 항상 IDE 검사 먼저 실행:

# 필수: 코드 수정 후 즉시 에러 확인 (0-2초)
jetbrains.get_file_problems(
    filePath="module-core-domain/src/main/kotlin/.../Service.kt",
    errorsOnly=True
)

# 에러 없으면 단일 테스트 실행
jetbrains.execute_terminal_command(
    command="./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests '*ServiceTest'",
    timeout=60000
)

---

When to Use

• Writing unit tests for services/repositories
• Running single tests during TDD (fast feedback)
• Setting up integration tests with Testcontainers
• Mocking dependencies with MockK
• Debugging flaky or failing tests

Fast Feedback Commands Reference

Never use ./gradlew clean build during development iterations!

Command Selection Guide

Situation	Command	Time
Single test class	./gradlew :module:test --tests "*ServiceTest"	~5-10s
Single test method	./gradlew :module:test --tests "*ServiceTest.should*"	~5-10s
Module tests only	./gradlew :module:test	~15-30s
Compile check only	./gradlew :module:compileKotlin	~3-5s
Full build (CI only)	./gradlew clean build	~60-120s

Module Names Reference

# project-basecamp-server modules
:module-core-common:test      # Utilities
:module-core-domain:test      # Domain services, entities
:module-core-infra:test       # Repository impls, external clients
:module-server-api:test       # Controllers

Single Test Patterns

# Run single test class
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*PipelineServiceTest"

# Run single test method (partial match)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*PipelineServiceTest.should create*"

# Run tests matching pattern
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*Service*"

# Run with console output (for debugging)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*ServiceTest" --info

# Re-run only failed tests
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*ServiceTest" --rerun

Incremental Build (NO clean!)

# Compile only (fastest check for syntax errors)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:compileKotlin

# Compile + test single class (fast TDD cycle)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:compileKotlin && \
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*ServiceTest"

# Module build (no clean)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:build

# Full build WITHOUT clean (uses cache)
./gradlew build

JetBrains MCP Integration (Fastest)

# Option 1: Quick compile check via IDE inspection
jetbrains.get_file_problems(
    filePath="module-core-domain/src/main/kotlin/.../Service.kt",
    errorsOnly=True,
    timeout=5000
)

# Option 2: Run test via terminal
jetbrains.execute_terminal_command(
    command="./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests '*ServiceTest'",
    timeout=60000,
    maxLinesCount=200
)

# Option 3: Use existing run configuration
jetbrains.get_run_configurations()  # List available
jetbrains.execute_run_configuration(
    configurationName="ServiceTest",
    timeout=30000
)

---

TDD Fast Feedback Loop

1. Write Test (RED)

@Test
fun `should reject duplicate names`() {
    every { repository.existsByName("existing") } returns true

    assertThrows<DuplicateNameException> {
        service.create(CreateCommand(name = "existing"))
    }
}

2. Quick Compile Check

# Fastest: IDE inspection (0-2s)
jetbrains.get_file_problems(filePath="...", errorsOnly=True)

# Or: Gradle compile (3-5s)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:compileKotlin

3. Run Single Test (GREEN)

# Single test class (~5-10s)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests "*ServiceTest"

# Or via JetBrains
jetbrains.execute_terminal_command(
    command="./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests '*ServiceTest'",
    timeout=60000
)

4. Refactor

Repeat steps 2-3 until passing, then refactor.

5. Final Module Verification

# After TDD cycle complete, verify module (~15-30s)
./gradlew :module-core-domain:test

# Only use full build for final CI check
./gradlew build  # NO clean unless cache issues!

---

MCP Workflow

# 1. Check file for compile errors (FAST - no build)
jetbrains.get_file_problems(
    filePath="module-core-domain/src/test/kotlin/.../ServiceTest.kt",
    errorsOnly=True
)

# 2. Find existing test patterns
serena.search_for_pattern(
    "@Test|@MockK|@SpringBootTest",
    relative_path="project-basecamp-server/src/test/",
    context_lines_after=1,
    max_answer_chars=3000
)

# 3. Run specific test via JetBrains
jetbrains.execute_terminal_command(
    command="./gradlew :module-core-domain:test --tests '*ServiceTest' --info",
    timeout=60000
)

# 4. Spring testing docs
context7.get-library-docs("/spring/spring-boot", "testing")

Test Slice Selection

Slice	Use When	Loads	Time
None (unit test)	Service/domain logic	Nothing	~1s
@WebMvcTest	Controller only	Web layer	~3-5s
@DataJpaTest	Repository only	JPA + DB	~5-10s
@SpringBootTest	Full integration	Everything	~10-30s

Rule: Start with unit tests (no slice), add slices only when testing integration points.

---

MockK Patterns

Basic Mocking

@ExtendWith(MockKExtension::class)
class PipelineServiceTest {
    @MockK
    private lateinit var repository: PipelineRepositoryJpa

    @InjectMockKs
    private lateinit var service: PipelineService

    @Test
    fun `should create pipeline`() {
        // Arrange
        val command = CreatePipelineCommand(name = "test")
        val entity = PipelineEntity(id = 1, name = "test")
        every { repository.save(any()) } returns entity

        // Act
        val result = service.create(command)

        // Assert
        assertThat(result.name).isEqualTo("test")
        verify(exactly = 1) { repository.save(any()) }
    }
}

Relaxed Mocks (Stubs)

@MockK(relaxed = true)  // Returns sensible defaults
private lateinit var logger: Logger

// Or inline
val mockRepo = mockk<Repository>(relaxed = true)

Capturing Arguments

val slot = slot<PipelineEntity>()
every { repository.save(capture(slot)) } returns mockEntity

service.create(command)

assertThat(slot.captured.name).isEqualTo("test")

Coroutines (coEvery/coVerify)

coEvery { asyncService.process(any()) } returns Result.success()
coVerify { asyncService.process(match { it.id == 1L }) }

Spring Test Patterns

@DataJpaTest (Repository Testing)

@DataJpaTest
@AutoConfigureTestDatabase(replace = Replace.NONE)
@Testcontainers
class UserRepositoryTest {
    companion object {
        @Container
        val mysql = MySQLContainer("mysql:8.0")
            .withDatabaseName("test")

        @DynamicPropertySource
        @JvmStatic
        fun properties(registry: DynamicPropertyRegistry) {
            registry.add("spring.datasource.url", mysql::getJdbcUrl)
            registry.add("spring.datasource.username", mysql::getUsername)
            registry.add("spring.datasource.password", mysql::getPassword)
        }
    }

    @Autowired
    private lateinit var repository: UserRepositoryJpaSpringData

    @Test
    fun `should find by email`() {
        val user = UserEntity(email = "test@example.com")
        repository.save(user)

        val found = repository.findByEmail("test@example.com")

        assertThat(found?.email).isEqualTo("test@example.com")
    }
}

@WebMvcTest (Controller Testing)

@WebMvcTest(PipelineController::class)
class PipelineControllerTest {
    @Autowired
    private lateinit var mockMvc: MockMvc

    @MockkBean
    private lateinit var pipelineService: PipelineService

    @Test
    fun `should return pipeline by id`() {
        every { pipelineService.findById(1L) } returns PipelineDto(id = 1, name = "test")

        mockMvc.get("/api/pipelines/1")
            .andExpect {
                status { isOk() }
                jsonPath("$.name") { value("test") }
            }
    }
}

---

Anti-Patterns

Pattern	Problem	Solution
./gradlew clean build in TDD	60+ seconds per iteration	Single test: --tests "*Test"
@SpringBootTest for unit tests	Slow, loads everything	Remove annotation
Running all tests after each change	Time waste	Run affected test class only
every { } returns without verify	Mock unused	Add verify or use relaxed
Testing private methods	Brittle tests	Test through public API
Thread.sleep() in tests	Flaky	Use awaitility or latch

---

Quality Checklist

• Unit tests use no Spring context (fast ~1s)
• Single test runs in <10 seconds
• Integration tests use appropriate slice
• Mocks verified with verify blocks
• Testcontainers for database tests
• No Thread.sleep() (use awaitility)
• Tests follow AAA pattern (Arrange-Act-Assert)
• Test names describe behavior: should X when Y
