Diffblue Cover now produces tests for methods that return objects with types such as Function, BiFunction, IntPredicate etc. It can write tests for methods returning objects whose type is a functional interface type, as defined in https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/function/package-summary.html#package.description.
For code written in a functional programming style, this means a significant increase in coverage.
Run configuration names have been shortened whilst maintaining their uniqueness. This ensures both class and method names are easier to read.
The new standard for method names no longer includes a signature and is in the format: simple class name . method name.
Community Edition allows you to write tests for both open source and commercial code. This means you can now use Diffblue Cover Community Edition at work completely for free. Visit our documentation to learn more about how you can use Diffblue Cover at work, and also see our End-User License Agreement{: target="_blank" rel="noopener"}.
