JUnit tests for Java collections

[ilango_g]

I am interested in knowing if somebody has already written Junit unit tests for Java Collection Classes.
Thanks in advance.

From the way you worded your question, it sounds like you're looking for tests for the java.util.* classes.  Unfortunately, I am unaware of any canonical set of unit tests (though I would find them useful if other list members know of any).  However, the Apache Commons Collections library (http://commons.apache.org/collections/) has an extensive suite of unit tests for many collection classes.  In particular, see the org.apache.commons.collections.collection.AbstractTestCollection class and its subclasses (AbstractTestList, AbstractTestSet, etc.).  You may be able to adapt this suite to test java.util.*.

Alternately, if you are looking for a test suite to test a custom collection class, it is pretty easy to extend the Apache Commons Collections suite.  I have done so in the past for a personal project.

Hi -

You can use hamcrest asserts in JUnit 4.x to test your collections.

Please visit http://code.google.com/p/hamcrest/wiki/Tutorial,
http://www.jmock.org/javadoc/2.5.1/ for its usage.

Regards
Sai

What do you mean by tests for the Java collection classes? If you're
referring to tests that exercise the collections classes, you don't need
them as they are not code you've written and hence should not be tested.
When interacting with 3rd party code you should make the assumption that it
"just works" and test that your code interacts with it correctly

Something which you, I, and everyone else would call "Tuesday", of course.
