Stelligent President Publishes JUnit 4 Tutorial

Andrew Glover, President of Stelligent, recently published a tutorial - Jump into JUnit 4. The tutorial, a supplement to his popular “In pursuit of code quality” series published by IBM developerWorks, guides you step-by-step through the fundamental concepts of JUnit 4, with emphasis on the new Java 5 annotations.

At the conclusion of this one-hour tutorial, you will understand the major changes to JUnit 4, as well as being familiar with features such as exception testing, parametric testing, and the new flexible fixture model. Last but not least, you will know how to do the following:

• Declare a test
  
• Use annotations (rather than suites) to logically group tests prior to running them
  
• Run tests in Eclipse 3.2 or Ant, as well as from the command line

Don’t miss the accompanying discussion forum for assistance with code metrics, test frameworks, and the creation of quality-focused code.
