In Salesforce, a test class is used to test the functionality of Apex classes and triggers. The purpose of writing a test class is to ensure that your code works as expected and that it meets the requirements of your business logic.
Test classes help you to catch errors before they occur in production, so it is crucial to write good test classes.
- It’s important to note that Salesforce requires a minimum of 75% code coverage for all Apex classes and triggers.
- This means that at least 75% of the lines of code in your classes and triggers must be covered by test methods.
Introduction
Test Class Must need to have
- @testSetup Method
- Test.startTest() & Test.stopTest()
- Assert Class methods
- Use try & catch where applicable
- Positive & Negative Scenario
- Testing for Bulk Records
Test Class Good to have
- runAs
- Utility Class
