AtUnitAtUnit minimizes boilerplate code in unit tests and guides test development by enforcing good practices.

mark exactly one field with @Unit to indicate the object under test. mark fields with @Mock or @Stub to obtain mock objects inject your tests, and your test subjects, using your favorite IoC container Mock Objects IntegrationAtUnit integrates with JMock or EasyMock to provide mock objects:

obtain a JMock context simply by declaring a field annotate fields with @Mock to obtain JMock or EasyMock mock objects annotate fields with @Stub to obtain a JMock or EasyMock stub object ... or you can use your own mock objects plug-in with two easy steps:

implement the MockFramework interface annotate your tests with @MockFrameworkClass(MyMockFramework.class)

Container IntegrationAtUnit integrates with Guice or Spring to take all of the work out of dependency-injected tests.

With Guice:

never see the Injector, never write bootstrapping boilerplate! @Inject test class fields without even defining a Module declaratively obtain mock objects with @Inject @Mock if you need more binding flexibility, simply have your test class implement Module

With Spring:

annotate fields with @Bean to get them from the Spring context fields annotated with @Bean which do not appear in your Spring context are added to it automatically! (This includes @Mock and @Stub fields.) AtUnit looks for a Spring XML file with the same name as your test, or you can specify the location yourself with @Context("filename") Most of the time, you don't even need a Spring XML file!

You can easily plug in other containers in two steps:

implement the Container interface annotate your tests with @ContainerClass(MyContainer.class)
