The 8 Useful Java Testing tools (& Frameworks) for Programmers, Developers and Coders
Getting Started with Java
In case this is your first time delving into the world of Java, first things first, you will need to install a JDK (Java Development Kit), which comes with Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and JVM (Java Runtime Environment). You can find this from Oracle. This will enable you to compile,run and test your Java programs on your machine.
You will also need a IDE (Integrated Developer Environment) there are many options such as Intellij, Eclipse and NetBeans.
Testing tools for Java
Here are my top '8 tools to help you with Java testing (& Frameworks)'.
1. Arquillian
Arquillian is a highly innovative and extendible testing platform for JVM that allows developers to easily create automated integration, functional and acceptance tests for Java. Arquillian allows you to run test in the run-time so you don't have to manage the run-time from the test (or the build). Arquillian can be used to manage the life cycle of the container (or containers),bundling test cases, dependent classes and resources. It is also capable of deploying archive into containers and execute tests in the containers and capture results and create reports.
Arquillian integrates with familiar testing frameworks such as JUnit 4, TestNG 5 and allows tests to be launched using existing IDE, and because of its modular design it is capable of running Ant and Maven test plugins. You can find out more on their website.
2. JTest
JTest also known as 'Parasoft JTest' is an automated Java software testing and static analysis software made by Parasoft. JTest includes functionality for Unit test-case generation and execution, static code analysis, data flow static analysis, and metrics analysis, regression testing, run-time error detection.
There are also features that allow you to peer code review process automation and run-time error detection for e.g.: Race conditions, exceptions, resource and memory leaks, security attack vulnerabilities. You can find out more on their website.
