 A Spring Boot application is a Spring `ApplicationContext`, so nothing very special has
 to be done to test it beyond what you would normally do with a vanilla Spring context.

 NOTE: External properties, logging, and other features of Spring Boot are installed in the
 context by default only if you use `SpringApplication` to create it.
 
 Spring Boot provides a `@SpringBootTest` annotation, which can be used as an alternative
 to the standard `spring-test` `@ContextConfiguration` annotation when you need Spring
-Boot features. The annotation works by creating the `ApplicationContext` used in your
-tests through `SpringApplication`. In addition to `@SpringBootTest` a number of other
-annotations are also provided for
+Boot features. The annotation works by
+<<boot-features-testing-spring-boot-applications-detecting-config,creating the
+`ApplicationContext` used in your tests through `SpringApplication`>>. In addition to
+`@SpringBootTest` a number of other annotations are also provided for
 <<boot-features-testing-spring-boot-applications-testing-autoconfigured-tests,testing more
 specific slices>> of an application.
 
 TIP: Don't forget to also add `@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)` to your test, otherwise
 the annotations will be ignored.
 
-You can use the `webEnvironment` attribute of `@SpringBootTest` to further refine how
-your tests run:
-
-* `MOCK`: Loads a `WebApplicationContext` and provides a mock servlet environment.
-Embedded servlet containers are not started when using this annotation. If servlet APIs
-are not on your classpath, this mode transparently falls back to creating a regular
-non-web `ApplicationContext`. It can be used in conjunction with
-`@AutoConfigureMockMvc` for `MockMvc`-based testing of your application.
-* `RANDOM_PORT`: Loads an `ServletWebServerApplicationContext` and provides a real
-servlet environment. Embedded servlet containers are started and listen on a random
-port.
-* `DEFINED_PORT`: Loads a `ServletWebServerApplicationContext` and provides a real
-servlet environment. Embedded servlet containers are started and listen on a defined port
-(from your `application.properties` or on the default port of `8080`).

+==== Testing with a mock environment
+By default, `@SpringBootTest` does not start the server. If you have web endpoints that
+you want to test against this mock environment, you can additionally configure
+{spring-reference}/testing.html#spring-mvc-test-framework[`MockMvc`] as shown in the
+following example:
+
+[source,java,indent=0]
+----
+include::{code-examples}/test/web/MockMvcExampleTests.java[tag=test-mock-mvc]
+----
+
+TIP: If you want to focus only on the web layer and not start a complete
+`ApplicationContext`, consider
+<<boot-features-testing-spring-boot-applications-testing-autoconfigured-mvc-tests,using
+`@WebMvcTest` instead>>.
+
+Alternatively, you can configure a
+{spring-reference}testing.html#webtestclient-tests[`WebTestClient`] as shown in the
+following example:
+
+[source,java,indent=0]
+----
+include::{code-examples}/test/web/MockWebTestClientExampleTests.java[tag=test-mock-web-test-client]
