There are many software development blogs out there, but many of them don't publish testing articles on a regular basis.
Also, I have noticed that some software developers don't read blogs written by software testers. That is a shame because I think that we can learn a lot from them.
That is why I decided to create a newsletter that shares the best testing articles which I found during the last week.
Let's get started.
Technical Stuff
- Building a Camel Case @DisplayNameGenerator For JUnit 5 is an interesting blog post that explains how you can write a custom
DisplayNameGeneratorwhich generates display names from the names of your test methods. - How to Test the
@ScheduledAnnotation is a practical blog post that describes two different ways to ensure that a scheduled method is run. - JUnit 5 Tutorial: Running Unit Tests With Gradle is the second part of my JUnit 5 tutorial, and I updated it because of the changes made to both JUnit 5.4.0 and Gradle.
The Really Valuable Stuff
- Code Coverage vs Test Coverage; Subjectivity and Usefulness is an excellent blog post that explains the difference between code coverage and test coverage. This blog post also reveals why you shouldn't measure the quality of your testing activities by using these metrics.
- How do you review test automation code is an interesting discussion that contains good tips for reviewing test code.
