Isaac Gomolka Help with test class for controller extension
Hi everyone, I am pretty new to Salesforce so sorry if this is a stupid question. I had to create a button that when pressed loads a visualforce page with questions on it. After the user answers the questions and clicks the submit button it escalates the case in which he is trying to escalate. I had to make dropbox menus (selectlists) with Yes/No as answers but had to store the answer in a field that is a checkbox.(yes being checked, no being unchecked). Im trying to now make a test class for the extension I needed to make in order for the selectlists to work, but im having trouble. Im really bad with test classes, so im confused as to what should go into the class. Here is my code:
Controller extension:
Not sure if you need i, but here is my visualforce page that is using all this:
Any help with this test class would be greatly appreciated. I dont even know where to start. Thanks a bunch!
Controller extension:
public with sharing class EscalationPageExtension {
public String picklist1{get;set;}
public String picklist2{get;set;}
public String picklist3{get;set;}
public EscalationPageExtension(ApexPages.StandardController controller){
}
public List<SelectOption> options { get; private set; }
{
options = new List<SelectOption>();
options.add(new SelectOption('', '-Select-')); // ==> option disabled
options.add(new SelectOption('false', 'No'));
options.add(new SelectOption('true', 'Yes'));
}
}
Not sure if you need i, but here is my visualforce page that is using all this:
<apex:page standardController="Case" extensions="EscalationPageExtension" sidebar="false" showHeader="false">

I will recommend you to start using trailhead to learn about test classes
1) https://trailhead.salesforce.com/modules/apex_testing
Also please check below post
1) https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexcode.meta/apexcode/apex_qs_test.htm
2) https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexcode.meta/apexcode/apex_testing_example.htm
Pleasse check below post sample test class
1) http://amitsalesforce.blogspot.com/2015/06/best-practice-for-test-classes-sample.html
You write a test class for this the same way that you would any other:
- Set up some data for the Controller to access (No need in this case)
- Instantiate the Controller- .
- Execute a method/methods
- Verify the behaviour with asserts.
@isTest public class ExtensionTestClass { static testMethod void testMethod1() { // Create Test Data Account testAccount = new Account(); testAccount.Name='Test Account' ; insert testAccount; Test.StartTest(); ApexPages.StandardController sc = new ApexPages.StandardController(testAccount); EscalationPageExtension testObj = new EscalationPageExtension(sc); List<SelectOption> lstOptions = testObj.testObj(); System.assert(lstOptions.size() > 0 ); Test.StopTest(); } }Please follow below salesforce Best Practice for Test Classes :-1. Test class must start with @isTest annotation if class class version is more than 25
2. Test environment support @testVisible , @testSetUp as well
3. Unit test is to test particular piece of code working properly or not .
4. Unit test method takes no argument ,commit no data to database ,send no email ,flagged with testMethod keyword .
5. To deploy to production at-least 75% code coverage is required
6. System.debug statement are not counted as a part of apex code limit.
7. Test method and test classes are not counted as a part of code limit
9. We should not focus on the percentage of code coverage ,we should make sure that every use case should covered including positive, negative,bulk and single record .
Single Action -To verify that the the single record produces the correct an expected result .
Bulk action -Any apex record trigger ,class or extension must be invoked for 1-200 records .
Positive behavior : Test every expected behavior occurs through every expected permutation , i,e user filled out every correctly data and not go past the limit .
Negative Testcase :-Not to add future date , Not to specify negative amount.
Restricted User :-Test whether a user with restricted access used in your code .
10. Test class should be annotated with @isTest .
11 . @isTest annotation with test method is equivalent to testMethod keyword .
12. Test method should static and no void return type .
13. Test class and method default access is private ,no matter to add access specifier .
14. classes with @isTest annotation can't be a interface or enum .
15. Test method code can't be invoked by non test request .
16. Stating with salesforce API 28.0 test method can not reside inside non test classes .
17. @Testvisible annotation to make visible private methods inside test classes.
18. Test method can not be used to test web-service call out . Please use call out mock .
19. You can't send email from test method.
20.User, profile, organization, AsyncApexjob, Corntrigger, RecordType, ApexClass, ApexComponent ,ApexPage we can access without (seeAllData=true) .
21. SeeAllData=true will not work for API 23 version eailer .
22. Accessing static resource test records in test class e,g List<Account> accList=Test.loadData(Account,SobjectType,'ResourceName').
23. Create TestFactory class with @isTest annotation to exclude from organization code size limit .
24. @testSetup to create test records once in a method and use in every test method in the test class .
25. We can run unit test by using Salesforce Standard UI,Force.com IDE ,Console ,API.
26. Maximum number of test classes run per 24 hour of period is not grater of 500 or 10 multiplication of test classes of your organization.
27. As apex runs in system mode so the permission and record sharing are not taken into account . So we need to use system.runAs to enforce record sharing .
28. System.runAs will not enforce user permission or field level permission .
29. Every test to runAs count against the total number of DML issued in the process .
