I am trying to get my first AspectJ aspect running. Setup looks ok to me, following the documentation I can find. e.g.
But no aspect will fire, no matter what options I have tried during all today.
I believe the pointcuts is correctly pointing to my method call because I was getting the error about pointcuts not being used when I changed it. (Thats not happening now - dont know what I did :-())
So is the problem in the setup? The pointcuts? How do you go about de-bugging such a situation? Am I missing something in the docs?

Have you tried without Lombok in order to avoid this problem? Try doing manually in your test class what the Lombok annotation does instead.
After we have established that this solves the problem, we can start looking into possible workarounds. If this really is your first AspectJ problem, you should not start with a difficult mix like AspectJ + Lombok.
Besides, if your @Data class is immutable, you might not need Lombok at all and could use a recent Java version and native Java records for that.
