Test Class Structure

Required Pattern

@IsTest
private class MyClassTest {

    @TestSetup
    static void makeData() {
        // Use TestFactory for all record creation
        List<Account> accounts = TestDataFactory.createAccounts(200);
        insert accounts;

        List<Contact> contacts = TestDataFactory.createContacts(accounts);
        insert contacts;
    }

    @IsTest
    static void testMethodName_positiveScenario() {
        // Arrange
        List<Account> accounts = [SELECT Id, Name FROM Account WITH USER_MODE];

        // Act
        Test.startTest();
        MyClass.myMethod(accounts);
        Test.stopTest();

        // Assert
        List<Account> results = [SELECT Id, Status__c FROM Account WITH USER_MODE];
        System.assertEquals(200, results.size(), 'All accounts should be processed');
        for (Account acc : results) {
            System.assertNotEquals(null, acc.Status__c, 'Status should be set');
        }
    }
}

Test Scenarios (generate ALL of these)

1. Positive tests: Happy path with valid data
2. Negative tests: Invalid data, null inputs, empty lists
3. Bulk tests: 200+ records to verify bulkification
4. Permission tests: Test with restricted user profile
5. Boundary tests: Edge cases (0 records, 1 record, max records)

Permission Testing Pattern

@IsTest
static void testMethod_restrictedUser() {
    User restrictedUser = TestDataFactory.createStandardUser();
    insert restrictedUser;

    System.runAs(restrictedUser) {
        Test.startTest();
        try {
            MyClass.myMethod(testData);
            System.assert(false, 'Should have thrown exception');
        } catch (SecurityException e) {
            System.assert(e.getMessage().contains('access'),
                'Should throw security exception');
        }
        Test.stopTest();
    }
}

Callout Mock Pattern

@IsTest
private class MyCalloutClassTest {

    private class MockHttpResponse implements HttpCalloutMock {
        private Integer statusCode;
        private String body;

        MockHttpResponse(Integer statusCode, String body) {
            this.statusCode = statusCode;
            this.body = body;
        }

        public HttpResponse respond(HttpRequest req) {
            HttpResponse res = new HttpResponse();
            res.setStatusCode(this.statusCode);
            res.setBody(this.body);
            return res;
        }
    }

    @IsTest
    static void testCallout_success() {
        Test.setMock(HttpCalloutMock.class, new MockHttpResponse(200, '{"status":"ok"}'));

        Test.startTest();
        String result = MyCalloutClass.makeCallout();
        Test.stopTest();

        System.assertEquals('ok', result, 'Should return success status');
    }

    @IsTest
    static void testCallout_failure() {
        Test.setMock(HttpCalloutMock.class, new MockHttpResponse(500, '{"error":"fail"}'));

        Test.startTest();
        try {
            MyCalloutClass.makeCallout();
            System.assert(false, 'Should throw on 500');
        } catch (CalloutException e) {
            System.assert(true, 'Exception expected on server error');
        }
        Test.stopTest();
    }
}

Rules

• NEVER hardcode record IDs — always query or create in @TestSetup
• ALWAYS use Test.startTest() and Test.stopTest() to reset governor limits
• ALWAYS use System.assertEquals / System.assertNotEquals with descriptive messages
• ALWAYS test with 200 records minimum for bulk scenarios
• Use @TestVisible on private methods/variables instead of making them public
• Create a TestDataFactory class if one doesn't exist
• NEVER use SeeAllData=true unless testing specific platform features
• Test both synchronous and asynchronous paths (future, queueable, batch)

TestDataFactory Pattern

@IsTest
public class TestDataFactory {

    public static List<Account> createAccounts(Integer count) {
        List<Account> accounts = new List<Account>();
        for (Integer i = 0; i < count; i++) {
            accounts.add(new Account(
                Name = 'Test Account ' + i
            ));
        }
        return accounts;
    }

    public static User createStandardUser() {
        Profile p = [SELECT Id FROM Profile WHERE Name = 'Standard User' LIMIT 1];
        return new User(
            FirstName = 'Test',
            LastName = 'User',
            Email = '[email protected]',
            Username = 'testuser' + DateTime.now().getTime() + '@example.com',
            Alias = 'tuser',
            TimeZoneSidKey = 'America/Los_Angeles',
            LocaleSidKey = 'en_US',
            EmailEncodingKey = 'UTF-8',
            ProfileId = p.Id,
            LanguageLocaleKey = 'en_US'
        );
    }
}

Async Testing Patterns

• @future: Runs after Test.stopTest() — assert side effects after stopTest
• Batch: Call Database.executeBatch() between Test.startTest() / Test.stopTest()
• Queueable: Call System.enqueueJob() between startTest/stopTest — chaining limited to depth 1 in test
• Schedulable: Call System.schedule() between startTest/stopTest — assert CronTrigger afterward

Platform Event & CDC Testing

• Platform Events: Call Test.getEventBus().deliver() after publishing to force synchronous delivery
• Change Data Capture: Call Test.enableChangeDataCapture() in test setup, then Test.getEventBus().deliver() after DML

Stub API (Dependency Injection)

Use System.StubProvider interface + Test.createStub() to mock dependencies without hitting the database.

Test.loadData()

Load bulk test data from CSV in a Static Resource: Test.loadData(Account.sObjectType, 'TestAccounts')

Mixed DML Workaround

Use System.runAs() to separate setup object DML (User, Profile) from non-setup objects in the same test.

Special Object Testing

• Use Test.getStandardPricebookId() for Product2/PricebookEntry tests
• Use RestContext.request = new RestRequest() for @RestResource endpoint tests

Gotchas

• @TestSetup data is shared (NOT isolated) across test methods — each method gets a copy that resets
• SeeAllData=true exposes production data — almost never use it
• Future/Batch/Queueable execute AFTER Test.stopTest(), not during
• Callout mock (Test.setMock()) must be registered BEFORE Test.startTest()
• Platform Event ordering is NOT guaranteed in tests
• Test.startTest() / Test.stopTest() can only be called ONCE per test method
• Batch Apex finish() method also runs after Test.stopTest()
• Mixed DML throws MIXED_DML_OPERATION — use System.runAs() to workaround

Workflow

1. Read the class under test using Read/Glob tools
2. Identify all public/global methods and code paths
3. Check if TestDataFactory exists; create if not
4. Generate test class with all scenario types
5. Run tests: sf apex run test -n MyClassTest --synchronous --code-coverage
6. Report coverage and fix any failures
