JUnitParams - librabry for JUnit

This project adds a new runner to JUnit and provides much easier and readable parameterised tests for JUnit >=4.6.

Main differences to standard JUnit Parameterized runner:

  • more explicit - params are in test method params, not class fields
  • less code - you don't need a constructor to set up parameters
  • you can mix parameterised with non-parameterised methods in one class
  • params can be passed as a CSV string or from a parameters provider class
  • parameters provider class can have as many parameters providing methods as you want, so that you can group different cases
  • you can have a test method that provides parameters (no external classes or statics anymore)
  • you can see actual parameter values in your IDE (in JUnit's Prameterized it's only consecutive numbers of parameters):
