Testing Magnolia

Introduction

Magnolia uses JUnit 4 tests and Mockito (new) for creating unit tests. Before we were using EasyMock for dynamic mocks.
Independently from that make sure your tests match our conventions. Information on how to best migrate JUnit3-style tests to JUnit4 can be found here.

Mockito

Mockito is a more recent mocking library. We'll not bulk convert existing EasyMock-Tests as this would be to big an effort. Instead we set up the following rules:

• all new tests requiring dynamic mocks use Mockito
• whenever you touch (fix, adapt, complete) an existing test that's using EasyMock: convert it to Mockito
