What are the technologies out there? (I only know of JUnit) What is the most popular? Can you please explain the pros/cons of each?

JUnit and TestNG are the main unit test frameworks.

Comparison can be found here - http://www.mkyong.com/unittest/junit-4-vs-testng-comparison

I've used JUnit in most places I've worked, it seems to be the standard, but there are some nice things in TestNG.

I've used the following in combination with JUnit to facilitate testing:

• Mockito for mocking objects - http://code.google.com/p/mockito/
• Hamcrest assertions for more readable assertions - http://code.google.com/p/hamcrest/
• Twip for parameterized testing, the JUnit stuff isn't the greatest, in fact TestNG does this better as well - http://twip.sourceforge.net/

JUnit and TestNG are the most popular. JUnit being the de-facto standard, and TestNG providing some extra features.

There are a lot of "add-on" framework for specific kinds of testing, typically these depend on JUnit. Examples:

• DBUnit - for testing code that accesses a database
• JFCUnit - for testing Swing apps
• HTMLUnit - for testing web apps
