Lambda Behave Java 8’s testing framework By SPEC INDIA
Lambda behave – an introduction • A latest testing framework for Java • Lambda Behave vows to make testing a pleasing experience • An ideal choice for a Java developer who has worked with specification frameworks earlier • There are existing frameworks like JUnit and Cucumber but Lambda proves to be much more fluent and modern with a unique testing style
Lambda behave – an introduction (contd.) • Launched some time back and has already started gaining momentum and appreciation worldwide, because of its salient features and technical benefits • Makes use of various Java 8 features for gaining a neat and user friendly environment for testing. • The latest release to have hit the market is Lambda Behave 0.3
Lambda behave – an introduction (contd.) • Current testing frameworks turn out to be a little untidy and complex, whereas Lambda Behave turns out to be flowing and simplistic • Lambda Expressions have been a significant feature of Java 8, in which the importance lies on passing behaviour to methods. • Being a merger of functional capabilities and object oriented, it enhances the integration of third party libraries.
Salient Features Of Lambda Behave • Fluency and neat specification writing in the domain language • Writing data driven specifications • Integration with the base tool or IDE • Influence of IDE usage onto library design • Capability to reset mocks • Addition of combinators for use of business domain objects in testing
Salient Features Of Lambda Behave (contd). • Integration with Scala-Test to enable running of Lambda Behave tests with Scala-Test infrastructure • Solve bugs regarding API corner cases • Log down seed numbers for random number generators • Integration of the random number generation with the testing API
Lambda Behave Specifications(contd.) • Fluent Specifications • For Lambda Behave, it is very important to focus on fluency as if reading pure English. • It also looks for encouraging describing testing with usage of eloquent sentences instead of fewer words. • It focuses on an API which is available all through the IDE completion. • Generated Specifications • Lambda Behave possesses capabilities to generate test cases for testing your code, very much like Scala Check. • The involved API is something like Data driven specifications and controls the generation of values.
Lambda Behave Specifications(contd.) • Data Driven Specifications • Based on various data inputs, Lambda Behave parameterizes the specifications. • The API involved is not dependent upon reflection magic. • The specification as well as the description both are parameterized.
