Software Testing
This page will describe the testing approach for the services and solutions developed at the MPDL.
Current State[edit]
Module Tests[edit]
- Interface Tests should have tests for all methods in the module interface (required)
- Class Name convention:
src/test/java/<name_of_module_interface>InterfaceTest.java example: src/test/java/CitationStyleHandlerInterfaceTest.java
- The class should be explicitely declared in the module pom.xml
... <plugin> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <skip>false</skip> <includes> <include>**/CitationStyleHandlerInterfaceTest.java</include> <!-- possible other test classes --> <include>**/TestCitationStylesSubstantial.java</include> </includes> </configuration> </plugin> ...
The existence of the required Interface test class can be checked later by parsing of pom.xml (e.g with command line utility)
- All other JUnit tests for the module are optional and should be presented in the separate test class
