Unit Testing - Reading Assignment

What is Unit Testing?

Testing the smallest component of a source code to make sure it executes as desired.

Refactoring means that you change and (hopefully) improve the internal structure of the code without changing the behaviour of the code. For example, developers may change a piece of code in order to make the code run faster but still perform the same task. Why is unit testing important for refactoring?

Because you can isolate and rest that one factor alone to check if the upgrade worked.

How does Unit Testing help the bottom-up testing approach? If you test the smallest units for efficacy first, it gives you more confidence that the integrated system will work. It also saves time and provides a documented approach.

Unit Testing - Reading Assignment

1. What is Unit Testing?

It’s a way to determinate if a new developed or changed software part is working as design.

2. Refactoring means that you change and (hopefully) improve the internal structure of the code without changing the behaviour of the code. For example, developers may change a piece of code in order to make the code run faster but still perform the same task. Why is unit testing important for refactoring?

It’s important too test out so there are none new bugs implemented, and that the functionality really is the same as before. If the first unit or software part passed the test procedure, the newly developed unit of cod e should pass the exact same way as the previous version test did.

3.How does Unit Testing help the bottom-up testing approach?

It will be much easier to track down bugs in the software chain, as all small programs unit testing already completed individual test s , and are probably bug free and have a know status and behavior. Then the complete integration test will be much easier and less time consuming.

  • What is Unit Testing?
    It is a method used in computer or procedural programming to test individual units of code or functions to ensure that they are fit for use before being integrated.

  • Refactoring means that you change and (hopefully) improve the internal structure of the code without changing the behaviour of the code. For example, developers may change a piece of code in order to make the code run faster but still perform the same task. Why is unit testing important for refactoring?
    It enables the programmer to improve or change the code structure at a later date without crippling the system because faults are easy to detect and to fix.

  • How does Unit Testing help the bottom-up testing approach?
    The testing of individual programs before all parts together makes integration testing easier. Unit Testing also helps maintain an up to date documentation of the system.

  1. A method where individual parts “units” are tested programatically to determine if they are performing correctly for their specific function.
  2. The same tests will be run on the updated code so if there is an error it can quickly be identified.
  3. It is easier to put ten known working parts together then see what happens, than it is to do a complete program build then try to troubleshoot issues at the end.

  1. It’s a method that allows to test individual units of code also determining how they may affect the application/ program/ tool, as a whole.
  2. By splitting testing into separate units (and hopefully documenting it), a programmer can easier manipulate certain parts overall and not changing the behavior of the code as a whole.
  3. The whole testing integration is easier when the separate parts are tested first and than its sum.

  2. Makes sure the module still works correctly (e.g., in regression testing). The procedure is to write test cases for all functions and methods so that whenever a change causes a fault, it can be quickly identified and fixed.

    Answer - a unit testing is a a testing approach where you have to write separate/specific test scripts for each function or components of your application.

For example, developers may change a piece of code in order to make the code run faster but still perform the same task. Why is unit testing important for refactoring?
    Answer - Unit testing is important as it ensures that the functionality is still same for the application or still working as expected even after deploying some enhancements to the code base.

  • How does Unit Testing help the bottom-up testing approach?
    Answer - unit testing will later on hep during integration testing when several components are tied together in the application

  1. Unit testing is a testing of the simplest elements of the source code in order to identify and address any possible problems/errors

  2. Unit testing is important for refactoring, because it allow coders to have ready made tests for each function. It allow to identify issues and make changes to the source code.

  3. It is more efficient to test simple parts of the program first, and then test the total of all parts. This way we can eliminate small issues before they become large and complicated problem.

1- Unit testing is testing the smallest parts in order to see if what we wanted to get as a result of this unit is actually realized .
2-A programmer may make a change or modification to the code in refactoring and this produces a different result, one we did not intend. In order to protect against this causing problems we can see the problem and fix it if we run a unit test again.
3- By spotting problems in the smaller units before they are integrated we make the process more efficient and easier to find and repair any problems.
