Specialist in Unit Testing These testers are responsible for the testing of individual system components (construct in objectoriented programming). The code for a unit can be tested effectively by review or by executing test cases. When you test a unit, you are really creating instances of that unite and testing the behavior of those instances. Testers should make a choice: whether to perform a unit testing independently or to perform a test as a component of a larger part of the system. Sometimes, component testing needs so many collaborators that it makes more sense to test units in a cluster. Sometimes units are tested by their developers. In this case company’s management should allow time on these procedures. This state seems to be very clear but a lot of chiefs simply don’t think about it when they draw up a plan of testing process.
