What is JUnit ?

JUnit is a unit testing framework for Java programming language. It plays a crucial
role test-driven development, and is a family of unit testing frameworks
collectively known as xUnit.

JUnit promotes the idea of "first testing then coding", which emphasizes on
setting up the test data for a piece of code that can be tested first and then
implemented. This approach is like "test a little, code a little, test a little, code a
little." It increases the productivity of the programmer and the stability of
program code, which in turn reduces the stress on the programmer and the time
spent on debugging.

Features of JUnit
 JUnit is an open source framework, which is used for writing and running
tests.
 Provides annotations to identify test methods.
 Provides assertions for testing expected results.
 Provides test runners for running test
 JUnit tests allow you to write codes faster, which increases quality.
 JUnit is elegantly simple. It is less complex and takes less time.
 JUnit tests can be run automatically and they check their own results and
provide immediate feedback. There's no need to manually comb through a
report of test results.

 JUnit tests can be organized into test suites containing test cases and even
other test suites.
 JUnit shows test progress in a bar that is green if the test is running
smoothly, and it turns red when a test fails.

Annotations for Junit testing

 @Test : This annotation is a replacement of org.junit.TestCase which


indicates that public void method to which it is attached can be executed as
a test Case.

 @Before : This annotation is used if you want to execute some statement


such as preconditions before each test case.

 @BeforeClass : This annotation is used if you want to execute some


statements before all the test cases for e.g. test connection must be
executed before all the test cases.

 @After : This annotation can be used if you want to execute some


statements after each Test Case for e.g resetting variables, deleting
temporary files ,variables, etc.

 @AfterClass : This annotation can be used if you want to execute some


statements after all test cases for e.g. Releasing resources after executing
all test cases.
 @Ignores: This annotation can be used if you want to ignore some
statements during test execution for e.g. disabling some test cases during
test execution.

 @Test(timeout=500): This annotation can be used if you want to set some


timeout during test execution for e.g. if you are working under some SLA
(Service level agreement), and tests need to be completed within some
specified time.

Download and Installation of JUnit


 Eclipse has JUnit already included , therefore if you intend to use JUnit
within Eclipse you don’t have to download anything

Downloading :
 You can download JUnit 5 from http://www.junit.org/index.htm in the
zipped format
 Unzip the JUnit 5 zip file
 Add junit-5.jar to the CLASSPATH

Test1.java
package test1;

/**

* @author LENOVO

*/

public class Test1 {

public int addNumber(int a , int b){

return a+b;

public String addString(String c, String e){

return c + e;

Test1IT.java
package test1;

import org.junit.After;

import org.junit.AfterClass;

import org.junit.Before;

import org.junit.BeforeClass;
