Hello everyone. Is there any way to test my methods individually (without breakpoints) in a Java program? For example, if I have a method that accepts an int and returns a String, I want to put in a number and see if the method works as expected. Thanks.

You can write JUnit tests.

Create a scrapbook page.

File/ New/ Other.../ Java/ Java RunDebug/ Scrapbook Page

You can write just about any Java code in it, then you highlight what
you want to run, and just those lines will be run.

Good for adhoc testing of methods, classes, etc
