net.sourceforge.groboutils.junit.v1 The GroboUtils JUnit Extention: classes to help in the creation and execution of JUnit tests.

Overview

This package has been designed to follow the JUnit extention patterns (see my article in the documentation). Instead of creating direct TestCase subclasses to add functionality to actual TestCases, test extentions have been refactored for ease-of-use.

Utility Testing Classes

The classes listed here follow the JUnit Utility Functionality pattern. They give more testing functionality to unit tests through a separate instance, rather than requiring the tests to subclass to gain the functionality.

AssertTestFactory & IntegrationTestCase

There are two kinds of "validations" a test can generate: soft and hard. A hard validation must be true - any inconsistency will result in the whole test to fail. A soft validation will still cause a test error, but the test may continue. Soft validations are less useful than hard validations for unit tests, since the point of unit tests is to make sure a small part of an application has the absolute correct behavior. However, for integration tests, this becomes less a necessity. An integration test may take great efforts setting up a scenario, then runs a battery of validations against the setup. A hard validation in these situations does not expose all the issues which may lie in the source.

Hard validations are supported in JUnit with the Assert class. The IntegrationTestCase class in this framework allows for better support of soft validations by executing the soft asserts as a seperate test. This allows for proper reporting of the failure without stopping the flow of the test.

MultiThreadedTestRunner

It can be very difficult to test code which requires inter-thread communication, or which may encounter synchronization problems. This class allows a TestCase to create runner inner classes to perform a bit of functionality for a thread, then pass those instances to a MultiThreadedTestRunner instance to allow them to run in parallel. In situations where a dead-lock may occur, a timer is provided which will interrupt (not kill) the running threads and report a failure.

Java Source File NameTypeComment

AssertTestFactoryUTest.javaClass Tests the AssertTestFactory class.
IntegrationTestCase.javaClass A TestCase specific for Integration tests.
IntegrationTestCaseUTest.javaClass Tests the IntegrationTestCase class.
InterruptEUTest.javaClass Tests the behavior of the Thread.interrupt() and InterruptedException in threaded and non-threaded environments.
JUnitTestCaseEUTest.javaClass Tests the functionality of the JUnit TestCase class for conformance to expected behaviors.
JUnitTestResultEUTest.javaClass Tests the functionality of the JUnit TestResult class for conformance to expected behaviors.
JUnitTestSuiteEUTest.javaClass Tests the functionality of the JUnit TestSuite class for conformance to expected behaviors.
MultiThreadedTestRunner.javaClass A framework which allows for an array of tests to be run asynchronously.
MultiThreadedTestRunnerUTest.javaClass Tests the MultiThreadedTestRunner class.
SubTestTestCase.javaClass A TestCase which enables tests to run a subset of tests from an active test.
SubTestTestCaseUTest.javaClass Tests the SubTestTestCase class.
SysPropertiesUtil.javaClass Utility that allows for easy setting and reseting of System properties. Some classes that need testing may depend upon a System property setting, and this class will help testing that.
SysPropertiesUtilUTest.javaClass Tests the TestRunnable class.
TestMonitorRunnable.javaClass A helper class to more easily create monitors.
TestMonitorRunnableUTest.javaClass Tests the TestMonitorRunnable class.
TestRunnable.javaClass Instances of this class only execute in the runTestRunnables method of the MultiThreadedTestRunner class. TestCases should define inner classes as a subclass of this, implement the runTest() method, and pass in the instantiated class as part of an array to the runTestRunnables method.
TestRunnableUTest.javaClass Tests the TestRunnable class.
