Aim:
Improve the test code by avoiding code duplication, improving maintainability, and enhancing readability. By converting the test into a parameterized unit test, we reduce boilerplate code, make it easier to extend by simply adding new input values, and improve debugging by clearly identifying which test case fails instead of searching through individual assertions.
In the above in tests from EntitiesTest.java:
To accomplish this, I have separated the 1st test into 2 and retrofitted all 3 into parameterized unit tests. This reduces duplication, allows easy extension by simply adding new value sets, and makes debugging easier as it clearly indicates which test failed instead of requiring a search through individual assertions.
