Unit testing is an important step in the software development life cycle to ensure that your product works the way it is intended to work. Back in the day, it used to be just a step that developers had to perform to evaluate their work. In today’s world, it has become an essential part of the CI/CD pipeline as it is not just used to determine quality based on functionality but also to determine code promotion eligibility based on various numbers (pass/fail ratio or code coverage percentage).
jBPM, being one of the most modern, open-source bpm products, provides rich capabilities for unit testing BPM processes. This allows jBPM processes to be treated just like any other Java-based artifact. The jBPM tool kit provides an extension of JUnit test classes that allow one to easily unit test business processes defined in BPMN2.
