Unit Testing and Mocks

Guidelines

• JUnit 4 tests with annotations
• Mockito for Mocking as much as possible
• PowerMock only where needed. If possible make changes to allow Mockito to work (remove statics, final classes, etc.)
• Hamcrest Matchers for complex assertions Junit Assert.* for simple checks
• Create Base Tests and setup methods to avoid boiler-plate code distracting from the meaningful work and assertions
• Create more tests (methods) rather than add assertions to existing tests.
