@After annotation of Junit

[Buddhika Mawella]

Hi,
I am new to Junit and trying to execute following test. What I have understood is that if a method of a Junit test case is annotated with @After,
that method should run after every test method. I created below test class with Junit and it only print "inside @Test" when running. But according to my knowledge that should print both "inside @Test" and "inside @After". So whats wrong with this? help me.

package com.test;
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.Test;

public class MyTest extends TestCase {
	
	@Test
	public void testSum() {
		assertEquals(1, 1);	
		System.out.println("inside @Test");		
	}
	
	@After
	public void afterMethod() {
		System.out.println("inside @After");		
	}
}

Thanks.

Buddhika,
Since you are extending TestCase, JUnit is treating it as a JUnit 3.8 test. Which looks for setUp/tearDown/test* named methods.

If you remove the "extends TestCase", JUnit will see it as a JUnit 4 test and do what you expect.
