Workflow Templates: Unit Testing Checklist

Review and understand the unit's specifications and requirements.

Determine the scope and boundaries of the unit to be tested.

Prepare test data that covers all aspects of the unit functionality.

Create test cases that cover positive, negative, and edge cases.

Ensure that test cases are independent of each other.

Design test cases to ensure maximum code coverage.

Run tests in a controlled environment that mimics production as closely as possible.

Monitor test execution to identify any failures or unexpected behavior.

Use automated tools to execute tests where possible to increase efficiency.

Check that all test cases pass and the unit behaves as expected.

Analyze failures to identify the root cause of any issues.

Verify that the unit integrates correctly with other units if applicable.

Ensure that the unit follows coding standards and best practices.

Conduct static code analysis to detect potential problems.

Refactor code where necessary to improve maintainability and readability.

Document all test cases, execution results, and issues found.

Report the unit testing progress and results to the relevant stakeholders.

Update issue tracking systems with any defects discovered during testing.
