 Purpose: This presentation covers unit and
integration testing tools across multiple
programming languages such as Java, C#, C++,
etc. It explores the features, uses, and
installation.

Importance of Testing: Testing is crucial to

ensure the correctness and quality of software
applications. Unit testing checks individual
components, while integration testing ensures
that combined components function properly.

Unit testing is a software testing technique in which

individual components or units of code are tested in
isolation to ensure they function correctly. The "unit" is
typically the smallest part of an application that can be
tested, such as a single function, method, or class. The
purpose of unit testing is to validate that each unit
performs as expected, even when used independently of
Unit Testing Frameworks are pivotal in
the software development
process, providing a mechanism for
developers to verify each part of the
software by running tests on individual
units of code.

Advantages of Using Unit Testing

Tools

Increased Code Quality:

Automated tests help detect defects
early, particularly for database logic
that is critical in enterprise
applications.
Refactoring Confidence: With
reliable test cases, database changes
can be made with confidence,
knowing the tests will catch any
regressions.
Documentation: Well-written tests
can serve as living documentation for
the database code.

What is NUnit?

•NUnit is an open source unit-testing framework for

all .NET languages.It is basically same as JUNIT in Java. It
brings the power of unit testing to .NET programs and has
become the most popular .NET unit testing framework. It
is compatible with Visual studio and Selenium WebDriver.

•It is inspired by JUnit and is part of the xUnit family of testing

frameworks.

Features of NUnit:

•Supports data-driven tests

•Flexible assertions

•Parallel test execution

. How NUnit is Useful for Companies

NUnit tests run quickly, allowing developers to identify and fix

Faster Bug Detection bugs early in the development cycle, reducing long-term
costs.

With NUnit tests, developers ensure that each unit of the

Improves Code Quality application performs as expected. This helps prevent new
changes from breaking existing functionality.

NUnit integrates well with CI/CD pipelines, automatically

running tests whenever new code is pushed. This ensures that
Supports Continuous Integration only code that passes the tests gets integrated, reducing the
risk of defects.

Detecting and fixing bugs early using automated testing is

significantly cheaper than fixing them later in production.
Cost Savings Additionally, with robust test coverage, fewer manual tests
are required, saving time and resources.

Available Through Steps to Install

NuGet Package NUnit:
Manager: • Open Visual Studio.
• NUnit can be installed easily • In Solution Explorer, right-

utPLSQL
(Oracle)
•What is utPLSQL?

•utPLSQL is a testing framework for PL/SQL code, allowing unit testing

directly within the Oracle database environment.

•It helps automate testing of stored procedures, functions, and

triggers.

•Features of utPLSQL:

•Simple test management using PL/SQL packages.

•Integration with continuous integration (CI) tools like Jenkins.

•Easy-to-read test results and reports.

• Real-Time Query Testing

•Companies can run SQL queries directly against a live database to

test their functionality and performance.

•This allows for immediate feedback on query results, helping to

identify issues quickly.

• Data Analysis and Reporting

•Analysts use Live SQL to extract insights from large datasets,

enabling data-driven decision-making.

•Users can write complex queries to generate reports that inform

business strategies.
