2 Day 10 JUnit 4 Extensions

 At times test cases requires some prerequisites ◦ Online in internet ◦ Database is available ◦ Database is filled with required test data  Best practice is to check this during running tests.  Done tag  Specified methods must be public, and return a boolean or Boolean value 3

public class TestFillDatabase = public void fillData() { //... } public boolean databaseIsAvailable() { boolean isAvailable =...; return isAvailable ; } 4

 Gets JUnit to inject test data into instances of your test class, via the constructor  The test data is provided by a method with annotation  TestCase must contain a constructor which takes the correct number, types of parameters. 5

 This method needs to return a collection of arrays, but beyond that you can implement it however you want.  We create an embedded array in the Java code. However, we can also get data from other sources. 6

@RunWith(Parameterized.class) public class SampleTest { private int number; private double public static Collection data() { return Arrays.asList(new Object[][] { { 0, 0.00 }, { 50, 5.00 }, { 99, 9.90 } }); } public SampleTest(int number, double result) { super(); this.number = number; this.result = result; public void shouldCalculateCorrectFee() { PremiumTweetsService premiumTweetsService = new PremiumTweetsService(); double calculatedFees = premiumTweetsService.calculateFeesDu e(numberOfTweets); assertThat(calculatedFees, is(expectedFee)); } 7

 When writing tests, it is common to find that several tests need similar objects created before they can run.  Annotating a public void method causes that method to be run before the Test method. methods of superclasses will be run before those of the current class. 8

 Sometimes several tests need to share computationally expensive setup (like logging into a database).  This can compromise the independence of tests, but it may be necessary optimization.  Annotating a public static void no-arg method causes it to be run once before any of the test methods in the class.  methods of superclasses will be run before those the current class. 9

 If you allocate external resources in a Before method you need to release them after the test runs.  Annotating a public void method causes that method to be run after the Test method.  methods are guaranteed to run even if a Before or Test method throws an exception. methods declared in superclasses will be run after those of the current class. 10

 If you allocate expensive external resources in a BeforeClass method you need to release them after all the tests in the class have run.  Annotating a public static void method causes that method to be run after all the tests in the class have been run.  methods are guaranteed to run even if a BeforeClass method throws an exception. methods declared in superclasses will be run after those of the current class. 11
