Unit Testing
Unit Testing
Unit testing verifies a specific unit of code. From unit testing, code coverage can be calculated to detect how much of the delivered code is actually tested by the developer. As the aim of unit testing is executing each line of code developed, unit testing helps to detect corner cases that in general would not be caught during functional tests. There are various methods of unit testing automation for every language—to name a few: Gtest/Gmock, JUnit, CUnit. In general, unit test support comes along with the programming language. Trustigo.tech incorporates rigorous unit testing practices to ensure high‑quality, reliable software delivery.
Benefits
- Unit testing improves the quality of the code
- Unit testing allows the programmer to refactor code or upgrade system libraries
- Unit testing reduces defects in the newly developed features or reduces bugs when changing the existing functionality
- Unit testing helps reduce the cost of bug fixes
- Unit testing provides documentation of the system
Why Unit Testing?
Trustigo.tech recognizes that unit testing, especially test‑driven development, is a design or implementation activity, not merely a testing activity. This perspective shifts quality assurance left in the development lifecycle, resulting in cleaner code and fewer defects.
