Unit Testing is a basic and essential skill to learn for any developer. In this course, you will learn what unit tests are, why they are important, and how to test your Java applications using the JUnit 5 Framework —  the most popular unit testing framework in the market for Java developers.

You will start with the fundamentals of Unit Testing and JUnit 5 and then gradually you will dive deep into the core concepts like assertions, assumptions, different types of tests like nested tests, parameterized tests, repeated tests, and more.

You will also learn some advanced concepts of JUnit 5 like the JUnit 5 extension model, dependency injection, how to migrate existing unit tests from JUnit 4 to JUnit 5, and how to integrate your unit tests with Maven and Gradle.

Unit Testing Java Applications using JUnit 5

Similar to `AssertJ`, **Hamcrest** provides a set of assertions that read like English sentences.

It's a well-known library used to write assertions for our unit tests. It was developed for Java, and later adopted by multiple other languages, such as Python, Ruby, PHP, Javascript, and Golang.


# Getting started with Hamcrest

To install Hamcrest, we use the following Maven coordinates.

Learn to use the Hamcrest library along with JUnit 5.
