JUnit on myeclipse

by Satya Siripuram

What is Junit

JUnit is a simple open source Java testing framework used to write and run repeatable automated

tests. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing framework. Eclipse supports

creating test cases and running test suites, so it is easy to use for your Java applications.

JUnit features include:

• Assertions for testing expected results

• Test fixtures for sharing common test data

• Test suites for easily organizing and running tests

• Graphical and textual test runners

What is a test case

A test case is a class which holds a number of test methods. For example if you want to test some

methods of a class AddClass you create a class AddClassTest which extends the JUnit TestCase class and place your test methods in there.

Working with Junit on myeclipse:

Step 1: select Window → Show View → Other → Java → select Junit → Ok

Just beside Package Explorer tree you could find JUnit view.

Example application:

1. Create a project :

a. go to File → New → Other → Java Project

b. name the project as TestingJUnit → Finish

Create a simple class:

a. right click on the project TestingJUnit goto New → Class

b. give package name as test.junit, class name as AddClass → Finish

AddClass.java

package test.junit;

public class AddClass {

public int add(int c ,int d)

{

return c+d;

}

3. Adding junit.jar to the project:

a. right click on the project → Properties → Java Build Path → select Libraries tab → Add External Jars → select the junit.jar → Ok

Note: download junit.jar here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=15278&package_id=12472

Creating test cases :

a. right click on the project TestingJUnit → New → Other → select Junit from the tree → Junit Test Case

b. give the package name as test.junit , class name as AddClassTest → only check setUP().

c. click on Browse for Class Under Select and type the name of the class that you want to test , here AddClass → Finish

d. add the following line of code inside testAdd()

assertEquals(13, ac.add(6, 7));

13 is the expected value.

ac.add(6,7) is the actual value

AddClassTest.java

package test.junit;

import junit.framework.TestCase;

public class AddClassTest extends TestCase {

private AddClass ac;

protected void setUp() throws Exception {

ac = new AddClass();

}

public void testAdd() {

assertEquals(13, ac.add(6, 7));

}

5. Running the Test Cases :

a. Right click on the project TestingJUnit → Run As → JUnit test

on Junit view you could see the following.

for testing give some different value like

assertEquals(12, ac.add(6, 7));

and Run again now you could see the following.

This is how you can test your application.
