what testing library should I use?

I think scalatest is a great testing tool for scala. You can add the following dependency in your pom.xml or checkout this link .

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.scalatest/scalatest -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.scalatest</groupId>
    <artifactId>scalatest_2.13</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Let me know if it helps!!
