Creating Tests
IntelliJ IDEA suggests a way to create tests for classes and individual methods.
Create a test for a class or method
-
In the editor, place the caret at the class declaration, or somewhere within a method.
-
Do one of the following:
-
From the main menu, choose .
-
From the context menu, choose .
-
Press Ctrl+Shift+T.
IntelliJ IDEA shows the list of available tests.
-
-
If the desired test doesn't yet exist, click Create new test.
The Create Test dialog opens.
-
In the Create Test dialog, specify the following settings:
-
Target directory, where the new test class will be generated.
-
The name of the test file, and the name of the test class.
-
Select the checkboxes next to the methods you want to include in the test class.
Note that if the caret has been placed within a method, only this method name is included in the list.
-
-
Click OK when ready. IntelliJ IDEA generates the test file in the specified location.
Once the test is created you can run it. See Run tests for more details.
