Working with JUnit
Chapters
What is JUnit?
Testing is the method of checking the functionality of the product whether it is working according to the requirements or not. Unit testing is to ensure the quality of product at developer level.
Two ways to achieve Unit Testing:
- Manual Testing
- Automated Testing
Generally Automated testing is a preferred way of these methods, because you can run very complex tests repeatedly over time without any human interaction while a test is running.
Here are some key points to show you how Manual testing and Automated testing differs
Manual Testing
Testing the application manually is called manual testing.
- It is completely done by human
hence it takes more time to test - It requires more human resources: because test cases need to be manually executed so more testers are
required in manual testing. - No coding can be done to prepare complicated tests which fetch hidden information.
Automated Testing
Testing the application by using tools is called automation testing.
- This is done with the help of a testing tool which reduces human power hence it consume less time to test
- Test cases are executed with the help of automation tool so no more testers are required.
- Testers can prepare complicated tests scripts to fetch hidden information.
- JUnit is an open source framework which is used for preparing & executing test scripts.
- Junit test method must be specified with “annotations”
- Junit test methods can be validated using “Asserts”
- JUnit tests allow you to write code faster which increasing quality
- JUnit is easy to implement. It is less complex & takes less time.
- Junit allows for sharing common test data
- Junit allows to Test suites organizing and running tests
- Junit shows graphical user interface result which makes easy to analyses the test progress in a bar is green when test pass and it turns red when a test fails.
JUnit Framework:
Junit is a programmer oriented testing framework for the Java.It is a white box testing framework is used to test the business logic of the application.
Junit is a unit testing framework which uses annotation to identify the methods that specify a test.
JUnit is an open source framework which is used for preparing & executing test scripts.
