Create Controllers

com.zsk.controller.TestController

package com.zsk.controller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

/**
 * @description:
 * @author: zsk
 * @create: 2019-11-27 23:43
 **/
@Controller
public class TestController
{
    @RequestMapping("/test")
    public String test()
    {
        return "test";
    }
}

com.zsk.controller.TestController2

package com.zsk.controller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

/**
 * @description:
 * @author: zsk
 * @create: 2019-11-30 21:28
 **/
@Component("/test2")
public class TestController2 implements Controller
{
    @Override
    public ModelAndView handleRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception
    {
        ModelAndView test2 = new ModelAndView("test2");
        return test2;
    }
}
