Running the same JUnit test case multiple time with different data


Is there there any way to tell JUnit to run a specific test case multiple times with different data continuously before going on to the next test case?


Solution

  • take a look to junit 4.4 theories:

    import org.junit.Test;
    import org.junit.experimental.theories.*;
    import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
    
    @RunWith(Theories.class)
    public class PrimeTest {
    
        @Theory
        public void isPrime(int candidate) {
              // called with candidate=1, candidate=2, etc etc  
        }
    
        public static @DataPoints int[] candidates = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
    }
