Practice 5: Write Automated Developer Tests

Practice 5 of the book (which is the fourth practice in chapter 2) is Write Automated Developer Tests. It’s a high-level practice that covers:

  • Writing an automated test using an xUnit-based framework such as JUnit or NUnit
  • Committing these tests to a version control repository
  • Running these automated tests as part of an integration build with every checkin (using Continuous Integration)

This video example demonstrates using the JUnit test framework with Eclipse.
