In this course, you will learn how to write a unit test for Java applications using JUnit. You'll start by covering unit-testing foundations, which provide you with a starter set of information about writing basic tests in JUnit. You’ll learn about JUnit organization and assertions, and you’ll pick up a few core quality practices for unit testing such as the Right BICEP and the CORRECT way. 

Towards the end, the bigger design picture focuses on the relevance of design to unit testing and vice versa. You’ll refactor your tests, and you’ll learn how to use mock objects to deal with trouble-some dependencies.

## CORRECT
We got a whiff of the CORRECT acronym earlier in this course, which can help us think about the boundary conditions and consider the following for our unit tests:

* **Conformance:** Does the value conform to an expected format?
* **Ordering:** Is the set of values ordered or unordered as appropriate?
* **Range:** Is the value within the reasonable minimum and maximum values?
* **Reference:** Does the code reference anything external that isn’t under the direct control of the code itself?
* **Existence:** Does the value exist (is it non-null, nonzero, present in a set, and so on)?
* **Cardinality:** Are there exactly enough values?
* **Time** (absolute and relative): Is everything happening in order? At the right time? In time?
