A test template for JUnit tests doesn't exist out of the box for IntelliJ IDEA. Creating one is not complicated.
The goal is to create a simple template that will assist you when you need to write a test in JUnit. I want it to look something like this:
@Test
public void should_assert_a_behaviour() {
// Given
// Setup the system under test
// When
// Execute the system under test
// Then
// Assert that the expected change has occurred
}
To add it follow, these steps:
To use the new template, just press cmd j or ctrl j (depending on your os) and select 'test'.
