Java is one of the most commonly used software languages by programmers and developers. In this book, you’ll learn the new features of Java 11 quickly and experience a simple and powerful approach to software development. You’ll see how to use the Java runtime tools, understand the Java environment, and create a simple namesorting Java application. Further on, you'll learn about advanced technologies that Java delivers, such as web programming and parallel computing, and will develop a mastermind game. Moving on, we provide more simple examples, to build a foundation before diving into some complex data structure problems that will solidify your Java 11 skills. With a special focus on the features of new projects: Project Valhalla, Project Panama, Project Amber, and Project Loom, this book will help you get employed as a top-notch Java developer.

Creating an integration test

We have created unit tests in the previous chapter and there are unit tests for the functionalities implemented in the classes of this chapter as well. We will just not print these unit tests here, but you can find them in the Packt code repository. Instead of listing the unit tests, we will look at an integration test.

Integration tests need the invocation of many classes working together. They check that the functionality can be delivered by the whole application, or at least a larger part of the application, and do not focus on a single unit. They are called integration tests because they test the integration between classes. The classes alone are all OK. They should not have any problem as it was already verified by the unit tests. Integration focuses on how they work together.

If we want to test the Game class, we will either have to create mocks...
