Testing Email Sending for Spring Boot Applications With GreenMail (Sandbox Email Server)
This video showcases a testing recipe to write integration tests that involve email sending. To avoid real emails being sent out for our tests, we can use a sandbox email server to capture and verify all emails.
For demonstration purposes, we're using a Spring Boot application (JavaMailSender) and GreenMail but the recipe can be applied to any Java application.
