# Test Evidence: Fresh-install root navigation - **Test type:** Web - **Requirement IDs:** `ACC-001` - **Scenario IDs:** `N/A — user-reported fresh-install navigation regression` - **Test class/method:** `com.lab.labtimesheet.feature.account.service.BootstrapIntegrationTest.rootGuidesFreshInstallToBootstrapWhileOtherRoutesRemainHidden` - **Implementation commit:** `531c6078521341b156d69cb1013e54f65c092311` ## Protected behavior Before the first Admin exists, opening `/` redirects to the public one-time bootstrap workflow instead of rendering a Whitelabel 404 page. Other protected application routes remain concealed with HTTP 404 until bootstrap completes. ## Test method The production Spring Security and bootstrap filter chain runs against a fresh PostgreSQL 18.4 Testcontainer. MockMvc requests `/bootstrap`, health, `/`, and `/dashboard`, then verifies that only the root receives the new navigation redirect while the protected dashboard remains hidden. ## Hand-derived expected result On an uninitialized installation, GET `/` returns a 3xx response with Location `/bootstrap`. GET `/dashboard` still returns 404. The bootstrap form and health endpoint remain available. ## RED **Command** ```text export JAVA_HOME=/Users/sechmachine/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/corretto-26.0.2/Contents/Home export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH" export DOCKER_HOST=unix:///Users/sechmachine/.orbstack/run/docker.sock ./mvnw -Dtest=BootstrapIntegrationTest#rootGuidesFreshInstallToBootstrapWhileOtherRoutesRemainHidden test ``` **Observed result** ```text GET / returned 404. Expected a 3xx redirect to /bootstrap.

It does not prove browser rendering or exercise the user's IntelliJ-run process. The existing browser screenshot independently established the original Whitelabel 404 symptom.
