Testing guide

Running tests

There are two ways to run tests.

  • Method 1: Using IntelliJ JUnit test runner
    • To run all tests, right-click on the src/test/java folder and choose Run 'All Tests'
    • To run a subset of tests, you can right-click on a test package, test class, or a test and choose Run 'ABC'
  • Method 2: Using Gradle
    • Open a console and run the command gradlew clean test (Mac/Linux: ./gradlew clean test)

Types of tests

This project has three types of tests:

  1. Unit tests targeting the lowest level methods/classes.
    e.g. wedlog.address.commons.StringUtilTest
  2. Integration tests that are checking the integration of multiple code units (those code units are assumed to be working).
    e.g. wedlog.address.storage.StorageManagerTest
  3. Hybrids of unit and integration tests. These test are checking multiple code units as well as how the are connected together.
    e.g. wedlog.address.logic.LogicManagerTest
