• Practically Groovy: Unit test your Java code faster with Groovy by Andrew Glover   - [Clicks: 51]
  Not long ago, developerWorks contributor Andrew Glover penned an article introducing Groovy, a new proposed standard language for the Java platform, as part of our alt.lang.jre series. Reader response was fantastic, so we've decided to launch this column to offer a practical guide to using this hot new technology. This first installment introduces a simple strategy for unit testing Java code with Groovy and JUnit.

• In-Container Testing with JUnit by Julien Dubois   - [Clicks: 85]
  In this article, I will describe the application of in-container testing in order to make JUnit tests access objects running inside a J2EE container. The example used here is a Struts-based Web application, which is fairly common among enterprise applications, but the techniques discussed are relevant to any J2EE project.

• Use Jython to build JUnit test suites by Michael Nadel   - [Clicks: 43]
  Developers decide to automate unit tests for a number of reasons. Many take it even a step further and automate the location and execution of those tests. But what if you need your test harness to act as if it were statically defined? Follow along with developer Michael Nadel and see how to use Python to feign statically defined JUnit TestSuite classes.

• JUnit Pocket Guide  by Kent Beck   - [Clicks: 43]
  While there are lots of bits of documentation all over the place, there isn't a go-to-manual that serves as a quick reference for JUnit. This Pocket Guide meets the need, bringing together all the bits of hard to remember information, syntax, and rules for working with JUnit, as well as delivering the insight and sage advice that can only come from a technology's creator.

• Professional Java Tools for Extreme Programming: Ant, XDoclet, JUnit, Cactus, and Maven  by Rick Hightower, Warner Onstine, Paul Visan, Damon Payne, Joseph D. Gradecki, Kate Rhodes, Robert Watkins, Erik Meade   - [Clicks: 199]
  The Extreme Programming (XP) methodology enables you to build and test enterprise systems quickly without sacrificing quality. In the last few years, open source developers have created or significantly improved a host of Java XP tools, from XDoclet, Maven, AntHill, and Eclipse to Ant, JUnit, and Cactus. This practical, code-intensive guide shows you how to put these tools to work - and capitalize on the benefits of Extreme Programming. Using an example pet store application, our expert Java developers demonstrate how to harness the latest versions of Ant and XDoclet for automated building and continuous integration. They then explain how to automate the testing process using JUnit, Cactus, and other tools, and to enhance project management and continuous integration through Maven and AntHill. Finally, they show you how to work with XP tools in the new Eclipse IDE. Complete with real-world advice on how to implement the principles and practices of effective developers, this book delivers everything you need to harness the power of Extreme Programming in your own projects.

• Embedding JUnit tests by Bruce Eckel   - [Clicks: 20]
  For the 4th edition of Thinking in Java, I've been experimenting with ways to take better control of JUnit testing. My primary interest is in automatically generating the JUnit code itself to minimize the effort of the programmer. One approach is to use JUnitDoclet, which automatically creates frameworks of JUnit code for various classes. This is certainly a step in the right direction by eliminating all the redundant code generation, but:
