Overview of this book

A practical and easy-to-follow, yet comprehensive, guide to learning advanced JUnit testing. Each topic is explained and placed in context, and for the more inquisitive, there are more details of the concepts used. This book is for you if you are a developer with some experience in Java application development as well as a basic knowledge of JUnit testing. But for those whose skill set is void of any prior experience with JUnit testing, the book also covers basic fundamentals to get you acquainted with the concepts before putting them into practise.

Understanding code coverage

Code coverage is a measurement of percentage of instructions of code being executed while the automated tests are running.

A piece of code with high code coverage implies that the code has been thoroughly unit tested and has a lower chance of containing bugs than code with a low code coverage. You should concentrate on writing meaningful (business logic) unit tests and not on having 100 percent coverage because it's easy to cheat and have 100 percent coverage with completely useless tests.

Numerous metrics can be used to measure the code coverage. The following are the ones that are widely used:

  • Statement or line coverage: This measures the statements or lines being covered
  • Branch coverage: This measures the percentage of each branch of each control structure, such as the if else and switch case statements
  • Function or method coverage: This measures the function execution

The following Java code will elucidate the metrics.
