Netbeans generates an "Unused Element" hint in the sidebar and a wavy
underline in the editor if I define a variable or method that goes
unused. This is a very useful feature, but in the case of JUnit5 it
has an unwanted effect. For example:
@Test
void myTest() { ... }
This method is recognized as an "Unused Element", although it's a Unit
Test that will be called by the framework. I can add the "public"
modifier to the method and the hint disappears, but then Sonar (and
probably other static code analysis tools) flag this as non-compliant
code. The reason is that in JUnit5 it is recommended to keep Unit Test
methods package-private:
https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#writing-tests-classes-and-methods
As far as I can see they give no compelling reason for that
recommendation, but is there a compelling reason for Netbeans to flag
package-private test methods as unused?
cheers,
Ulrich
