I downloaded and have been playing with CFUnit as unit tests have always been one of those things I should do but never got around to. I read through the primer document and it looks simple and straight-forward ... of course, so is the example. Basic examples are nice, but sometimes they are too basic.
So, I go to write a unit test around a simple bean object. First test, setName(name) .... Okay, obviously I need to pass in a string to this method, but as it is a setter, it does not return anything. So, what am I really testing here ... that the method does not blow up, or how would I really test that it is doing what it is supposed to? Do I actually test the setName function by calling getName afterwards (in the same test function) and then comparing the expected result? Any expert advice out there?
