Don't test Private Methods

I would like to share with you guys an article that form me is pretty interesting. The sentence to remember is the following one:

Private methods are for hiding implementation and we don’t want to test implementation details when we do TDD, that’s better achieved as part of a QA effort, if needed.

You can read the complete article here.

Good unit tests are the backbone of successful TDD. Keep the following in mind as you write unit tests: ‚

• Each unit test should be independent. ‚ 
• Each unit test should test one aspect or behavior and document the expected behavior. ‚ 
• Each unit test should not verify too much functionality. ‚ 
• Each unit test should not be dependent on interface.

Have a nice day!
