Don't let test stop on failure

问题:

I'm looking for the best practice for following (simplified) scenario:

@Test
public void someTest() {
  for(String someText : someTexts) {
    Assert.true(checkForValidity(someText));
  }
}

This test iterates through x-thousands of texts and in this case I don't want it to be stopped for each failure. I want the errors to be buffered and in case of error(s) to fail at the end. Has JUnit got something on board for for my aim?

First of all, it's not really the correct way to implement this. JUnit allows parametrizing tests by defining a collection of inputs/outputs with the Parametrized test runner. Doing it this way ensures that each test case becomes a unique instance, making test report clearly state which samples passed and which ones failed.

If you still insist on doing it your way you should have a look at AssertJ's Soft Assertions which allow "swallowing" individual assertion failures, accumulating them and only reporting after the test is finished. The linked documentation section uses a nice example and is definitely worth reading.
