What is Java Unit testing, and how do you learn it?

Unit testing is an idea to test project unit by unit, part by part.

Debugging isn't part of unit testing but part of testing step by step.

Unit tests ideally should cover all corner cases plus some random inputs for each project's unit to check whether it works properly.

JUnit allows to assure that methods return expected results and throw expected exceptions. It's is integrated with Eclipse to make the whole testing process a bit easier. Assert() methods throw an exception marking given test as 'failed' when the result of the tested method is different than expected.

JUnit can be learned any time depending on your requirements. If you are good with the concepts of the language, then you can start with it else try to get deeper understanding of the things.

What skills Java Programmers should learn in 2020

Here is my list of things a Java developer should learn in 2020: 1. DevOps (Docker and Jenkins) This is one area where I am seeing a lot of traction last year as more and more companies are moving into DevOps and adopting continuous integration and deployment. DevOps is very vast and you need to learn a lot of tools and principles and that's what overwhelm many developers. This means if you are an experienced Java programmer with a passion for managing the environment, automation and improving overall structure, you can become a DevOps Engineer. 2. Git Git and Github have been around some time and while I have used Git in past with Eclipse, but I am yet to become master of Git on the command line, and I am not alone Many programmers haven't mastered Git yet? Simply because they didn't need it yet as there code might be in SVN or CVS. Since now most of the companies are migrating their projects from SVN, CVS to Git, its high time to learn and ma...

JDK 25: The new features in Java 25

Java Development Kit (JDK) 25, scheduled for release in September 2025, is set to introduce several significant enhancements. Here's an overview of the notable features: 1. Stable Values API (Preview): This feature introduces stable values—objects holding immutable data treated as constants by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). By allowing greater flexibility in initialization timing compared to final fields, stable values aim to improve application startup times. They enable performance optimizations akin to constant-folding, previously exclusive to JDK code, and ensure thread-safe, single-time initialization. This decouples the creation of stable values from their initialization without significant performance penalties. 2. Removal of 32-bit x86 Port: JDK 25 plans to eliminate both the source code and build support for the 32-bit x86 port, which was deprecated in JDK 24. Maintaining this port has become less beneficial, especially with the challenges in keeping it updated wit...
