Recommendation type: Additional threads
Configurable in Preferences: Yes
Filter category: Unstable test environment
Description
Avoid writing test cases with side effects. Additional threads may change the state of your system and cause random test failures.
Example
@Test
public void testChangeState() throws Exception {
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
System.out.println("foo");
}
}).start();
State initialState = new State("state", 2);
// Given
TrackableMethodExample underTest = new TrackableMethodExample(initialState);
// When
State newState = new State("state changed", 10);
ResultStatus result = underTest.changeState(newState);
Assert.assertNotNull(result);
}
