What is ApexUnit?

ApexUnit is a powerful continuous integration tool for Force.com platform. ApexUnit is a Java application and it leverages the features exposed by the Force.com platform to queue and submit Apex tests for execution. Force.com tooling API's are used for fetching code coverage results. ApexUnit is intended to exercise integrated Force.com objects functionality through APIs beneath the Force.com UI layer. ApexUnit comprises of two major components:

1. A xUnit based testing framework for Force.com platform;
2. Extensive code coverage metrics with actionable detail for Apex source code. The code coverage results can be a component of the CI/CD pipeline.

Key Features of ApexUnit

• Queue and schedule Apex test runs asynchronously
• Filter and group tests(xUnit based)
  • Multi-Manifest file and Multi-Regex support for filtering and grouping the tests and sources classes

  • Detailed test report in standard JUnit xml format with drill down feature for failure analysis
  • Info on covered and uncovered code lines including line numbers
  • Code coverage metrics for individual classes; sorted in ascending order of code coverage%
  • Color schemes(red-green) to highlight classes with low code coverage
• Automatic health checks
  • Customizable code coverage thresholds at team level and org-wide level
  • Halts the tool when code coverage thresholds are not met and/or when there are test failures
  • Self-abort long running tests using customizable timeout threshold
• Seamless integration with Jenkins and CD pipeline
• Live test status logging
  • Completed test execution count and remaining tests count
  • Periodic test status logging
  • Test execution time for each test
