Creating a JUnit Test for a Generic Java Project

A JUnit test application consists of the following components:

• One or more test cases, which invoke the methods that are to be tested, and make assertions about the expected results. Wizard-generated test case classes have 'Test' in their names.
• Test fixtures, which provide the state in which the tests are run. Any class can serve as a test fixture, but JDeveloper provides wizards to help you create specialized test fixture classes. Wizard-generated test fixture classes have 'Fixture' in their names.
• A test suite, which invokes the test cases. Wizard-generated test suite classes have 'AllTests' in their names.
• A runner, which invokes the test suite and collates and displays the results of the tests.

To create a JUnit Test for a Generic Java Project:

1. Create a new empty project for your unit test.
2. Create your custom or JDBC test fixture classes.
3. Create your test case classes.
4. Create your test suite class.
5. Build the project:
   1. In the Navigator, right-click the project.
   2. Choose Build Project.
