Automated testing is a cornerstone of agile development. An effective
testing strategy will deliver new functionality more aggressively,
accelerate user feedback, and improve quality. However, for many
developers, creating effective automated tests is a unique and
unfamiliar challenge. xUnit Test Patterns is the definitive guide to
writing automated tests using xUnit, the most popular unit testing
framework in use today. Agile coach and test automation expert Gerard
Meszaros describes 68 proven patterns for making tests easier to write,
understand, and maintain. He then shows you how to make them more robust
and repeatable--and far more cost-effective. Loaded with information,
this book feels like three books in one. The first part is a detailed
tutorial on test automation that covers everything from test strategy to
in-depth test coding. The second part, a catalog of 18 frequently
encountered "test smells," provides trouble-shooting guidelines to help
you determine the root cause of problems and the most applicable
patterns. The third part contains detailed descriptions of each pattern,
including refactoring instructions illustrated by extensive code samples
in multiple programming languages. Topics covered include
- Writing better tests--and writing them faster
- The four phases of automated tests: fixture setup, exercising the
system under test, result verification, and fixture teardown
- Improving test coverage by isolating software from its environment
using Test Stubs and Mock Objects
- Designing software for greater testability
- Using test "smells" (including code smells, behavior smells, and
project smells) to spot problems and know when and how to eliminate them
- Refactoring tests for greater simplicity, robustness, and execution
speed This book will benefit developers, managers, and testers working
with any agile or conventional development process, whether doing
test-driven development or writing the tests last. While the patterns
and smells are especially applicable to all members of the xUnit family,
they also apply to next-generation behavior-driven development
frameworks such as RSpec and JBehave and to other kinds of test
automation tools, including recorded test tools and data-driven test
tools such as Fit and FitNesse.
