What is difference between junit4 and junit5?

Differences Between JUnit 4 and JUnit 5 Some other differences include: The minimum JDK for JUnit 4 was JDK 5, while JUnit 5 requires at least JDK 8. The @Before , @BeforeClass , @After , and @AfterClass annotations are now the more readable as the @BeforeEach , @BeforeAll , @AfterEach , and @AfterAll annotations.

Is JUnit 5 faster than junit4?

JUnit 5 is 10x slower than JUnit 4 #880.

Is JUnit 4 still supported?

The JUnit 4 dependency is still part of newer spring-boot-test project because of backward compatibility. It essentially means if there are existing JUnit 4 test cases available in the same project, JUnit's will not break. In the next few steps, we will see how we will exclude JUnit 4 fully and move to JUnit 5 fully.

  1. Java 5 annotations for setup and teardown (@before and @after) instead of setUp() and tearDown().

  2. don't need to extend TestCase anymore.

  3. @Test annotation replaces testSomeMethod() naming convention.

  4. static imports for asserts.

  5. Junit theories, which allow you to separate data sets from the test itself.
