#junit‑5

An introductory series about JUnit 5 plus a few articles that dive deeper, teaching you all you need to know about Java's most ubiquitous library.

Introduction

I wrote a series of posts that introduce you to JUnit 5 and I recommend you read them in following order:

Diving Deeper

Then there are a few more posts on the topic that can be read in pretty much any order:

JUnit 5 Architecture or "What's Jupiter?"#post#architecture #junit‑5 #libraries #testing
The JUnit 5 architecture promotes a better separation of concerns than JUnit 4 did. It also provides clear APIs for testers (Jupiter) and tools (Platform).
Image with slug junit-5-dynamic-tests
JUnit 5 - Dynamic Tests#post#junit‑5 #lambda #libraries #testing
With JUnit 5's dynamic tests, we can create tests at run time, for example to parameterize tests, create hierarchical test plans, or define tests with lambdas.

JUnit 5 Extension Model: How To Create Your Own Extensions#post#architecture #junit‑5 #libraries #testing
The JUnit 5 extension model enables detailed, flexible, and powerful additions to JUnit 5's core features. For that it provides specific extension points.

Parameterized Tests in JUnit 5#video#junit‑5
At JavaLand 2017, I spent 15 minutes exploring JUnit 5's (then) brand-new parameterized test feature in a NightHacking session
Image with slug junit-5-rewrite-architecture-extensions
Rewrite, Architecture, Extensions Of JUnit 5#video#community #junit‑5
What were the reasons for the rewrite? How does JUnit 5 compare to JUnit 4? What's so special about the architecture and the extension points?
Image with slug talk-junit-5
JUnit 5#talk#junit‑5 #testing
In this talk, I introduce JUnit 5 from basic tests to more advanced features like nesting, parameterization, parallelization, and extensions. We also discuss its architecture and compatibility with JUnit 4.
Image with slug junit-lambda-prototype
JUnit Lambda - The Prototype#post#junit‑5 #libraries #testing
JUnit Lambda will eventually bring us JUnit 5. This is a discussion of the recent prototype, its features, core principles and compatibility considerations.
