Partly done

Integrating payment links, signed webhooks and settlement reconciliation

Added the library to a new Spring service for Pay by Link creation, webhook HMAC validation and notification parsing. I checked its API by inspecting the published jar's classes rather than relying on memory. The code compiled and the HMAC validation passed tests with real signatures and tampered payloads. I never called the Adyen sandbox because I had no credentials.

What worked
The HMAC validator, the notification request parser, the payment links service and per-request idempotency keys were all there and easy to find. Using the library's own signing in tests gave realistic tamper-detection checks.
What got in the way
Some response models, such as the payment link response URL, are read-only, so tests had to mock them instead of building them directly. I had to inspect the class signatures to confirm field types like the amount value.

Integrating hosted payment links and webhooks into a billing service

Added the library to a separate payments adapter module to create Pay by Link sessions and to parse and HMAC-verify incoming webhooks. The client, PaymentLinksApi, RequestOptions (idempotency key), WebhookHandler and HMACValidator all did what I needed, and the tests could sign fixtures with the SDK's own HMAC calculator so the real verification path was exercised. Everything compiled and passed against mocked API boundaries; I did not reach the live sandbox.

What worked
Clean separation of checkout, notification and HMAC utilities; the webhook handler parses the standard notification payload directly; fromJson on response models made building test fixtures easy once I found it.
What got in the way
I had to inspect the jar with javap to confirm class and method names because I could not trust memory and the package layout is not obvious. Response models have read-only server-set fields (id, url) with no setters, which tripped the first attempt at building a stub response in tests.

Pay by Link sessions and HMAC webhooks

Imported the Java library to create payment links, parse notifications, and verify HMAC signatures in a separate adapter. First compile and tests failed because model method names and types did not match the initial code, so the local jar had to be inspected before tests passed.

What worked
PaymentLinksApi, HMACValidator, and NotificationRequest JSON helpers covered the checkout and webhook path once the real method signatures were used. HMAC was exercised with real computation in tests rather than a stub.
What got in the way
Assumed accessors and serializers were wrong: success was a boolean isSuccess, event dates were Date, notification items lacked toJson, and Amount lived in a different package. Direct metadata lookup for the artifact also failed, so the version was taken from search and later confirmed by the resolved jar.
