Listed below are points why to use Juint 5 dependency.\n\nImproved Programming Model: JUnit 5 provides a more flexible and modern programming model for writing tests. It introduces annotations and extensions that allow you to organize and structure your tests in a more readable and maintainable way.\n\nEnhanced Assertions: JUnit 5 offers an enhanced set of assertion methods, making it easier to write expressive and meaningful test assertions. Assertions like assertEquals, assertTrue, assertFalse, etc., are available to validate the expected behavior of your code.\n\nParameterized Tests: JUnit 5 introduces parameterized tests, which allow you to run the same test logic with different sets of input data. This simplifies writing and maintaining tests for scenarios where you want to test multiple input values or combinations.\n\nNested Tests: JUnit 5 allows you to create nested test classes, which improves test organization and readability. You can group related tests together within a nested class structure, making it easier to understand the relationships between different tests.\n\nExtensions and Customization: JUnit 5 provides a powerful extension model that allows you to extend and customize the testing framework. You can use extensions to add additional behavior or features to your tests, such as test lifecycle callbacks, parameter resolvers, custom annotations, etc.\n\nImproved IDE Integration: JUnit 5 offers improved IDE integration with modern Java IDEs. IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, and NetBeans provide native support for running and debugging JUnit 5 tests, making it convenient to execute and analyze test results within the development environment.\n\nBy including the JUnit 5 dependency in your project, you can take advantage of these features and benefits to write effective, maintainable, and readable unit tests for your Java code.\n \n\t\t\n\t\t \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\torg.junit.jupiter\n\t\t\t\tjunit-jupiter-api\n\t\t\t\t5.8.1\n\t\t\t\ttest\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\torg.junit.jupiter\n\t\t\t\tjunit-jupiter-engine\n\t\t\t\t5.8.1\n\t\t\t\ttest\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\torg.junit.jupiter\n\t\t\t\tjunit-jupiter-params\n\t\t\t\t5.8.1\n\t\t\t\ttest\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\torg.junit.vintage\n\t\t\t\tjunit-vintage-engine\n\t\t\t\t5.8.1\n\t\t\t\ttest\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\n","type":"text"}]},{"type":"blockquote","content":[{"type":"paragraph"}]},{"type":"codeBlock","attrs":{"language":"java"},"content":[{"text":"The Mockito dependency used for mocking classes and interfaces.\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\torg.mockito\n\t\t\tmockito-all\n\t\t\t1.10.19\n\t\t\ttest\n\t\t","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph"},{"type":"heading","attrs":{"level":4},"content":[{"text":"1.2.2 Maven Plugins","type":"text","marks":[{"type":"strong"}]}]},{"type":"paragraph"},{"type":"codeBlock","attrs":{"language":"java"},"content":[{"text":"The Surefire Plugin is used during the test phase of the build lifecycle to execute the unit tests of an application. \nIt generates reports in two different file formats: Plain text files ( *. txt ).\nSurefire is used to automate the execution of tests during the Maven build process and generate test reports\n\n\n \n \t //When running tests using Maven, the specified JVM arguments will be passed to the JVM executing the tests, allowing you to customize the test environment as needed.\n\t\t2.22.0\n\t\n\n\t \n\t\t\t\torg.apache.maven.plugins\n\t\t\t\tmaven-surefire-plugin\n\t\t\t\t${maven.surefire.version}\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t@{argLine} ${app.testing.jvm.args} -Xmx1536m\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph"},{"type":"codeBlock","attrs":{"language":"java"},"content":[{"text":"\tThis plugin is used for analysis of test coverage report and inclusion/exclusion of\n\tpackages from test coverage.
