Description
When wiring a MockMvc test environment, Traverson seems unable to plan along given it is trying to connect to a REAL resource.
Traverson is good for testing since it is built to understand hypermedia. The current options are to NOT user Traverson and instead do the hypermedia handling with existing tools, or to run a full blow Spring Boot embedded container to get the benefits.

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how Traverson plans hypermedia links during a MockMvc test and where it attempts to connect to a real resource; done means Traverson can traverse through MockMvc without requiring a full embedded Spring Boot container.
