Debugging and Error Handling in Spring Framework 5 from Pluralsight

Bugs and uncaught exceptions in your Spring 5 applications lead to a poor user experience and expose your app to malicious attacks. This course will teach you how to debug your Spring 5 applications and handle exceptions in your application.

Debugging your Spring 5 applications for potential bugs is the first step to building stable and secure applications, handling exceptions is the second. In this course, Debugging and Error Handling in Spring Framework 5, you’ll learn to debug your Spring 5 applications using the IntelliJ IDEA and handling exceptions to secure your applications in production. First, you’ll explore how to debug an application during the development using the IDEs, set the breakpoints, and modify the breakpoint behavior based on the values for the variables. Next, you’ll discover exception handling and the security vulnerabilities that you open up your application to, if you do not handle the exceptions. Finally, you’ll learn how to handle the exceptions at a controller level and at the application level using the annotations provided within the Spring Framework 5. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of debugging the Spring 5 applications and handling the exceptions on production environment needed to secure the applications from any potential exploits and vulnerabilities and improve the overall customer experience for your application.
