Writing Self-Testing Java Classes With Selftest, Yoonsik Cheon
Writing Self-Testing Java Classes With Selftest, Yoonsik Cheon
Departmental Technical Reports (CS)
This document provides a tutorial introduction to Java annotations called SelfTest. The SelfTest annotations allow one to annotate Java classes with test data, and the SelfTest annotation processor generates executable JUnit test classes from annotated Java classes by translating test cases to executable JUnit tests. The SelfTest annotations not only automate unit testing of Java classes significantly but also provides a step toward writing self-testing Java classes by embedding test data in source code for both compile and runtime processing.
