JUnit is a popular framework for unit testing in Java. It allows writing and running automated tests to verify the correctness of individual methods and classes.
Main features of JUnit:
- Annotations for marking test methods (@Test), setup methods (@Before, @BeforeEach), and cleanup methods (@After, @AfterEach).
- Asserts for checking expected results (assertEquals, assertTrue, etc.).
- Ability to group tests and run them automatically.
Example of a simple test with JUnit 5:
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.*;
class CalculatorTest {
@Test
void addition() {
Calculator calc = new Calculator();
assertEquals(5, calc.add(2, 3));
}
}
JUnit helps improve code quality and simplifies the debugging process.
