Engage your knowledge of getters and setters with an exercise to create minions. Discover how to be able to verify that you got it right, using a set of JUnit tests.
- [Instructor] I'd like to introduce you to … an exercise that you can use to practice … constructors, setters and getters. … This thing is called Minion Test, … and it's a set of JUnit tests. … There are two of them. … How you usually work with these … is you comment one at a time, … with the toggle comment, … so that you're only running one at a time. … This bar is going to be red … because I haven't implemented anything yet, … and that's okay. … The purpose of this exercise is to create … a minion class that has getters and setters. … The fields are going to be name, eyes, color, and master. … I'm just going to show how you would create the minion class, … like that, with the light bulb. … However, I don't recommend you continue to use … the light bulb, 'cause the whole point of the exercise … is to really practice, and this kind of does the work for you. … So once you've created your minion, … you should try and create the Java object. … Include these member variables. … Create a constructor, getters and setters for each of those. …
