Junit Test Case Generation Tool with Mockito

[Suhaas Lang]

Hi,

At our company we are trying to use code coverage (in some cases from 15% to 50%) . We do want to have sensible test cases and not just the coverage :-)

We use Junit and Mockito. I am wondering if there is a tool that would generate test cases that would include Mockito.Though I use Eclipse as my main IDE, I am open to changing it to to anything else including the good old command line option.

I am open to exploring options where it is not one step process as well.

I apologize if this topic was discussed on an old thread earlier.

Regards,

Suhaas

Nothing is going to generate the actual test cases.  That requires humans to write.

 

However, the MoreUnit Eclipse plugin can be used to generate the skeleton of a Mockito-based unit test, including convenient “@Mock” annotations and test stubs for the methods you want to test.  It also has nice navigation functions for moving back and forth between the test and CUT.

Thanks, David.

Pardon my ignorance. What is CUT? Is it Code Under Test?

[KARR, DAVID]

Yup, that’s it.  It’s a common phrase in this domain.

Agitar has tooling to generate Unit Tests for Java Code: http://www.agitar.com/

I don't know whether they are still "in business" or not really.

To generate meaningfull tests, you do need humans.

But yes, it is possible to generate JUnit Tests from code. Those tests will test, that your code is correct as is. After the generation, they can detect any changes and then you can decide, whether the detected change is correct or not. I have never really worked with their tooling apart from simple experiments.

I didn't think the approach is worthwhile.
