Java Code
Testing
While developing an , we as developers are faced with several challenges such as :
· How stable is the code?
· Does it follow agreed upon coding rules and
standards?
· Is the code optimised for best performance?
· Is the application portable across multiple
platforms?
· Will there be any memory leaks?
· Will the application work consistently across
32-bit and 64-bit systems?
· Will the application work across the globe?
· Is there any unused code, variables and so
on... in the application?
· Does the code follow correct object oriented
principles?
Such issues if not detected in the early stages of
the development cycle, can prove to be extremely expensive by way of
Ø unsatisfied customers,
Ø damage to the reputation of the
organisation and
Ø extended hours of identifying issues
and correcting them.
So in order to tackle such issues, we need to
perform Java Code Testing. Java Code Testing involves testing our java source
code against industry standard coding rules .
It ensures that our java source is
Ø stable,
Ø optimised,
Ø consistent,
Ø portable and
Ø compliant with coding standards.
