Unit testing is a part of the test-driven developthement (TDD) methodology that requires developers to first write failing unit tests. Then they write code in order to change the application until the test passes. Nowadays, unit testing is done with BDD(Behavior Driven Development) which is extension of TDD where user or tester create the automated specifications in plain english language and developer write the underlying code that implements the test.   ******************************...
