@Test
is used to signal that the annotated method is a test method.
@Test
methods must not be private
or static
and must not return a value.
@Test
methods may optionally declare parameters to be resolved by
ParameterResolvers
.
@Test
may also be used as a meta-annotation in order to create a custom composed annotation that inherits the semantics of @Test
.
Test Execution Order
By default, test methods will be ordered using an algorithm that is
deterministic but intentionally nonobvious. This ensures that subsequent runs
of a test suite execute test methods in the same order, thereby allowing for
repeatable builds. In this context, a test method is any instance method that is directly annotated or meta-annotated with @Test
, @RepeatedTest
, @ParameterizedTest
, @TestFactory
, or @TestTemplate
.
Although true unit tests typically should not rely on the order
in which they are executed, there are times when it is necessary to enforce
a specific test method execution order — for example, when writing
integration tests or functional tests where the sequence of the tests is important, especially in conjunction with @TestInstance(Lifecycle.PER_CLASS)
.
To control the order in which test methods are executed, annotate your test class or test interface with @TestMethodOrder
and specify the desired MethodOrderer
implementation.
