How to run JUnit test with Maven

This tutorial will cover how to run Unit tests using the Maven’s Surefire plugin. If you are not familiar with Unit Testing, you can follow this tutorial for a quick catch-up.

In our Maven Project, we need the following mandatory dependencies:

<dependencies>    
<dependency>        
<groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>        
<artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId>        
<version>5.4.2</version>        
<scope>test</scope>    
</dependency>    
<dependency>       
<groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>        
<artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId>        
<version>5.4.2</version>        
<scope>test</scope>    
</dependency>
</dependencies>

The junit-jupiter-engine dependency contains the implementation of the JUnit Jupiter test engine that runs our unit tests.

The junit-jupiter-api dependency provides API that allows us to write tests and extensions which use JUnit 5.



So Let’s create a very simple Java file:

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;
public class Example1 {           
   public static int getNumber() {                        
      return 5;            
   }
   public static String getMeaningfulText() {                        
      return "Hello World";            
   }
}

Now let’s create a Test class for it:

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;
public class TestExample1 {   
   @Test            
   public void testNumber() {                         
      assertEquals(5, Example1.getNumber());            
   }
   @Test            
   public void testMeaningfulText () {                         
      assertEquals(“Hello World”, Exampe1.getMeaningfulText ());            
   }    
}

Finally, we can run our program by using mvn clean build and we should see Superfire plugin running our unit tests
