JUnit

Explore JUnit to understand how to create repeatable Java tests using annotations like @Test, @Before, and @After. Learn to write parameterized tests and use JUnit Theories to test multiple data points, improving your testing coverage and reliability.

What is JUnit?

JUnit is a simple framework to write repeatable tests.

A typical JUnit 4.x test consists of multiple methods annotated with the @Test annotation.

At the top of every JUnit test class, we should include all the static Assert methods and annotations like so:

import static org.junit.Assert.*;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.After;

Use the @Before to annotate initialization methods that are run before every test and @After to annotate break-down methods that are run after every test.

Each test method should test one thing, and the method name should reflect the test’s purpose. For example:

public void toStringYieldsTheStringRepresentat
