If this is internal code only and the code calling it is also testing then I not only would I not test it but I'd remove all defensive code guards as well. ?For example, a typical pattern would be:

public void foo(SomeObject bar) {

? ?if (bar == null) {

? ?.....

? ?}

}

Instead of catching the null and handling it, ensure all code calling it will never pass in null. ?Cuts down on both test and production code.

Hello everyone -

I'm curious to know thoughts on writing tests that specify the behavior of a method when its inputs are incorrect. ?Is this a common practice. ?How about parameter validation in this case? ?Having some healthy debate on it and wanted to get other insight.

The context for this in a class/methods that are used within an internal application - this is not an API that will be publicly exposed to external consumers.

Thanks.

Something which you, I, and everyone else would call "Tuesday", of course.
