Tests Unitaires
From My Limbic Wiki
Before & After
@Before @After
The method with this annotation is executed before or after every test method
@BeforeClass @AfterClass
The method with this annotation is executed before or after every test class
Parametrize Test
- On top of the test class @RunWith(Parameterized.class)
- method annotated with @Parameter is passing Arrays.asList()
Mockito
Mocks vs Stubs = Behavioral testing vs State testing
Stubbing
- cannot be dinamically created from code
<source lang="Java"> MyMockedService myMockedService = new MyMockedService(); stub(myMockedService.methodToTest("param")).return("value"); </source>
Test lifecycle with stubs:
- Setup - Prepare object that is being tested and its stubs collaborators.
- Exercise - Test the functionality.
- Verify state - Use asserts to check object's state.
- Teardown - Clean up resources.
Stubbing Variations
- Argument Matchers
Mock
- Creating Objects that simulate the behavior of real objects
- can be dynamically created from code - at runtime
- offer more fonctionnalities than stubbing
- How many times this method is called ?
- Is this method is called at least once ?
<source lang="Java"> MyMockedService myMockedService = mock(MyMockService.class); when(myMockedService.methodToTest("param")).thenReturn("value"); </source>
Test lifecycle with mocks
- Setup data - Prepare object that is being tested.
- Setup expectations - Prepare expectations in mock that is being used by primary object.
- Exercise - Test the functionality.
- Verify expectations - Verify that correct methods has been invoked in mock.
- Verify state - Use asserts to check object's state.
- Teardown - Clean up resources.
