Getting Started


The purpose of this challenge is to write a class "PointTests" that will test the class Point.

Create a new project working directory and copy your previously coded Point.java into the directory.

Hints:


Starting Code
Here is some code to help get started.

This code should go in a file named "PointTests.java".

The file should be placed in the same working directory as "Point.java". 
public class PointTests {

	public void testMoveToOrigin() {

	}

	public void testMove1() {

	}

	//=======================================

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		PointTests test = new PointTests();
		test.testMoveToOrigin();
		test.testMove1();
	}

}

Methods To Test


For class Point we should have these four methods:


Expected Behavior - 'moveToOrigin'


Recall the Point's "moveToOrigin" method. For a given Point object the method does this:


Code The 'testMoveToOrigin' Method


Code "testMoveToOrigin" method in PointTests. This method can mimic the testSetSmall in RectangleTests.

The method should send the method "moveToOrigin" to a Point object (that you construct in the test method similar to testSetSmall).

And it should print out the x and y values by sending "getX" and "getY" to the Point object.

Compile and run.

👉🏼 Compare the actual output values to the expected values, and display each for output clarity (see "Example" page).

Expected Behavior - 'move1'


Recall the Point's "move1" method. For a given Point object the method does this:


Code The 'testMove1' Method


Code "testMove1" method in PointTests. This method will be very similar to "testMoveToOrigin".

The method should send the method "move1".

And it should print out the x and y values by sending "getX" and "getY" to the Point object.

Compile and run.

👉🏼 Compare the actual output values to the expected values for "moveToOrigin", and display each for output clarity (see "Example" page).
