Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-1463:
----------------------------------------

Hello everyone,

It is important to note in here that the old OFBiz tests are really integration tests, not unit tests. Therefore, please note the following comments / recommendations:

- If your test does not need a database or some environment context, then convert it to a unit test
- Real unit tests are very fast, if it takes time (because of using external resources) then keep it as an integration test
- Unit tests are automatically run everytime you call ./gradlew build or run any server commands.
- Unit tests can be explicitly called by the command ./gradlew test
- Recommend to keep the JUnit tests as pure junit (nothing OFBiz related)
- Recommend using the annotations instead of starting each test name with test...
- Highly recommend using _ExpectedException_ and _assertThat(actual, expected) API over other older classical test methods.
- You might need to create mock objects for your tests. This is where mockito might be helpful. I will propose something on the ML once I hit a test requirement to introduce it.

I will create a Sub-JIRA to commit some tests for the Start component which you can use as a reference If you like to.

> This is an effort to create JUnit test suites for various bussiness processes in Ofbiz.
> It would be good to have such tests in place so that we can test Ofbiz on a certain day.
> These tests are in initial stage, so I would like community members to post there comments so that we can move
> ahead with them to make these test even better.
