用于在数组中查找最大数量的参数化Junit测试用例的期望值

Question

Parameterized junit test can be written to test for multiple values. In this case what should be in the expected value? I'm storing the values to be tested as list, and the elements in the list are the candidates for the test data.

 @RunWith(Parameterized.class)
public class MaxInArrayTest {

    @Parameter
    public int[] a1;

    @Parameters
    public static Collection<int[]> data(){
        int[][] data = new int[][]{{1,2,3,4},{20,30,40,50}};
        return Arrays.asList(data);
    }

    @Test
    public void testMaxInArray(){
        MaxInArray maxInArray = new MaxInArray();
        Assert.assertEquals(maxInArray.findMax(a1), maxInArray.findMax(a1));
    }
}

Although this works, to calculate expected value, it is calling the same method. I want to store the expected values and then check them against the actual values. How does it need to be done?

Answer 1

The parameters need to contain the inputs, but also the expected output:

@RunWith(Parameterized.class)
public class MaxInArrayTest {

    private static class ArrayAndExpectedMax {
        private int[] array;
        private int expectedMax;

        public ArrayAndExpectedMax(int[] array, int expectedMax) {
            this.array = array;
            this.expectedMax = expectedMax;
        }

        public int[] getArray() {
            return array;
        }

        public int getExpectedMax() {
            return expectedMax;
        }
    }

    @Parameterized.Parameter
    public ArrayAndExpectedMax param;

    @Parameterized.Parameters
    public static Collection<ArrayAndExpectedMax> data(){
        return Arrays.asList(new ArrayAndExpectedMax(new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4}, 4),
                             new ArrayAndExpectedMax(new int[] {20, 30, 40, 50}, 50));
    }

    @Test
    public void testMaxInArray(){
        MaxInArray maxInArray = new MaxInArray();
        Assert.assertEquals(param.getExpectedMax(), maxInArray.findMax(param.getArray()));
    }
}
