Setting up Java JUnit Project with Eclipse + Maven Example

In Eclipse, go to File -> New -> Other...
Now Select Maven -> Maven Project
Click Next,
Select "Create a simple project (Skip archetype selection)", Next
Enter Group Id and Artifact Id and click Finish.

Now open the pom.xml and add the following dependency for Junit 4 under dependencies,

	<dependencies>
		<dependency>
			<groupId>junit</groupId>
			<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
			<version>4.8.1</version>
			<scope>test</scope>
		</dependency>
	</dependencies>

Create a java file,

package myprog;

public class Addition {
	
	public int add (int no1, int no2) {
		return no1 + no2;
	}
}

Now write a text class for the class we created under src/test/java package,

package myprog;

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;

import org.junit.Test;

public class AdditionTest  {

	@Test
	public void addTwoNumbers() {
		Addition addition = new Addition();
		assertEquals(5, addition.add(2, 3));
	}
	
}

Now let's run the maven test command to run the test cases, simply right click on your project folder and select Run As -> Maven test
