Test Coverage for VF pages, VF pages as email attachments, and their controllers???

Hi, I'm a bit new when it comes to visualforce and how to release them and their controllers to production.  

 

Who ever provides me with a reference I can use to create mine I will definitely give kudos to all that help.

 

Thank you,

Steve Laycock

You don't actually "cover" VF pages, only Apex Code.

 

Testing the controller is generally in the form of:

 

@isTest static void test() {
    // Create test data
    Account record = new Account(Name='Test');
    insert record;
    // Create page controller
    PageController controller = new PageController(new ApexPages.StandardController(record));
    // Test the various methods
    Decimal result1 = controller.doSomething1();
    String result2 = controller.doSomething2();
    PageReference result3 = controller.doSomething3();
    // Test the results
    System.assertEquals(5, result1);
    System.assertEquals("Hello World", result2);
    System.assertEquals(result3, Page.NextPage);
}

Your exact needs will vary, but this pattern will be consistent for every test you write.
