#whytrustwhenyoucantest — Public Fediverse posts

Upgraded to Spring Boot 3 (yes i am late). Found out `@PreAuthorize is a decorative corpse`. You now need `@EnableMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)` to reanimate it. Laughable.

Thankfully, I had tests. Which is ironic, because I wanted to test my code, not Spring’s trust issues.

This dev experience? Trash tier. Writing one annotation to enable another? That’s not configuration—that’s a scavenger hunt in a haunted house. 👻🔍

Annotations should do something when you use them. Not wait for permission like a guilty intern. Imagine you would have to add a Junit annotation to tell, that test failures are thrown.

Should’ve just gone full auth(request) at every endpoint. More stable. Less betrayal.
