Hi Yuanchi, There is no out-of-box unit tests provided by Samza. But there are some ways:
1) If you only want to test the logic in the Task class, normal unit tests will work. You can create a unit test that tests init(), process(), etc. 2) Create mock systems by implementing SystemAdmin, SystemConsumer, etc. You can refer to this one TestSystemStreamPartitionIterator <https://github.com/apache/samza/blob/master/samza-api/src/test/java/org/apache/samza/system/TestSystemStreamPartitionIterator.java> 3) bring up zookeeper, kafka in the unit test. Here is the reference TestStatefulTask <https://github.com/apache/samza/blob/master/samza-test/src/test/scala/org/apache/samza/test/integration/TestStatefulTask.scala> 4) run the job locally <http://samza.apache.org/learn/documentation/0.9/jobs/job-runner.html> by setting the job.factory.class <http://samza.apache.org/learn/documentation/0.9/jobs/configuration-table.html> . Usually, I think 1) and 4) are sufficient. Hope this helps.
