Spring Boot - How to kill current Spring Security session?

Currently I know that my setup is working because I was able to login properly using the basic HTTP authentication.

I used these properties:

security.basic.enabled=true
security.user.name=user
security.user.password=1qaz2wsx
security.user.role=USER

However, I want to relogin again. I tried clearing cookies (I assumed it was saved there), I checked my local/session storage and cookies in Chrome dev tools but it was blank.

I tried accessing my site in incognito and it asks me to login (for the first time since I only logged in to Chrome non-incognito).

How do I "kill" my session in Spring Security?

If you use basic authentication, the browser stores the authentication until you close it (or exit the incognito mode, if you used it). There is no possibility to delete the session on server side, since the browser would just reauthenticate. If you want to be able to logout, use form login.
