This is the most prominent and prevailing question that how to start unit testing? A developer already knows how to start this type of testing because core tester may or may not be working in parallel with the developer. Unit testing can be classified into two parts:
- Manual
- Automation testing
In most of the cases, automation testing is used for unit testing. An instructional document is being prepared to carry the entire process of software testing. This document is very important and should be written with the help of expert who has worked for years. In the automated approach, there should be following points:
- Developer writes the code and test it, if needed that part of the code can be commented.
- Developer can partially isolate any part of the code so that its impact on other portions of the entire code can be tested properly.
- If you isolate any part of the code then its dependency on other parts of the code can be checked.
- Checking and selecting the right framework is also quite important. In case of any failed test case, there will be proper reporting and things can be drawn out of that too.
- Workflow of unit testing is as written over here creation of test cases, review all aspects, execution of test cases.
