Pete Goodliffe有一个关于线程代码单元测试的系列。

是很困难的。我采用了更简单的方法，尽量将线程代码从实际测试中抽象出来。皮特确实提到了我分手的方式是错误的但我要么是正确的，要么就是我很幸运。

我最近发现了一个叫做Threadsafe的工具(用于Java)。它是一个静态分析工具，很像findbugs，但专门用于发现多线程问题。它不是测试的替代品，但我可以推荐它作为编写可靠的多线程Java的一部分。

它甚至可以捕捉到一些非常微妙的潜在问题，比如类包容、通过并发类访问不安全的对象以及在使用双重检查锁定范式时发现丢失的volatile修饰符。

如果您编写多线程Java，请尝试一下。

我做过很多这样的事，的确很糟糕。

一些建议:

GroboUtils for running multiple test threads alphaWorks ConTest to instrument classes to cause interleavings to vary between iterations Create a throwable field and check it in tearDown (see Listing 1). If you catch a bad exception in another thread, just assign it to throwable. I created the utils class in Listing 2 and have found it invaluable, especially waitForVerify and waitForCondition, which will greatly increase the performance of your tests. Make good use of AtomicBoolean in your tests. It is thread safe, and you'll often need a final reference type to store values from callback classes and suchlike. See example in Listing 3. Make sure to always give your test a timeout (e.g., @Test(timeout=60*1000)), as concurrency tests can sometimes hang forever when they're broken.

(如果可能的话)不要使用线程，使用actor /活动对象。易于测试。

这个问题发布已经有一段时间了，但仍然没有答案…

Kleolb02的答案很好。我会试着讲得更详细一些。

有一种方法，我在c#代码中练习过。对于单元测试，您应该能够编写可重复的测试，这是多线程代码中的最大挑战。因此，我的回答旨在将异步代码强制到同步工作的测试装置中。

这是Gerard Meszaros的书“xUnit测试模式”中的一个想法，被称为“Humble Object”(第695页):必须将核心逻辑代码和任何闻起来像异步代码的东西分开。这将产生一个用于核心逻辑的类，它同步地工作。

这将使您能够以同步方式测试核心逻辑代码。您可以绝对控制对核心逻辑进行调用的时间，因此可以进行可重复的测试。这就是分离核心逻辑和异步逻辑的好处。

这个核心逻辑需要由另一个类来包装，这个类负责异步接收对核心逻辑的调用，并将这些调用委托给核心逻辑。产品代码将只通过该类访问核心逻辑。因为这个类应该只委托调用，所以它是一个没有太多逻辑的非常“愚蠢”的类。因此，您可以将这个异步工作类的单元测试保持在最小值。

在此之上的任何测试(测试类之间的交互)都是组件测试。同样在这种情况下，如果你坚持使用“Humble Object”模式，你应该能够完全控制时间。
