Very confusing what they are asking, but here is my interpretation.

Now that we know that we should only have one behavior that we are asserting per test, can you help me break out the refundingReturnsAllAvailableFunds test case into a new one?

This tells me we are working with the refundingReturnsAllAvailableFunds() method in the CreditorTest class and that we are creating a new method so we can 'only have one behavior that we are asserting per test'.

How about making a new test that does the same, Arrange, Act and Assert named refundingResetsAvailableFundsToZero that separates out that final assertion in the first test.

Tells me to

  • 'making a new test' -----> (create a new class)
  • 'that does the same' -----> (use the same Arrange, Act and Assert)
  • 'named refundingResetsAvailableFundsToZero' -----> (new method is named refundingResetsAvailableFundsToZero ())

The final code looks like this.

package com.teamtreehouse.vending;

import org.junit.Test;

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

public class CreditorTest {

    @Test
    public void addingFundsIncrementsAvailableFunds() throws Exception {
        Creditor creditor = new Creditor();

        creditor.addFunds(25);
        creditor.addFunds(25);

        assertEquals(50, creditor.getAvailableFunds());
    }

    @Test
    public void refundingReturnsAllAvailableFunds() throws Exception {
        Creditor creditor = new Creditor();
        creditor.addFunds(10);

        int refund = creditor.refund();

        assertEquals(10, refund);
        assertEquals(0, creditor.getAvailableFunds());
    }

    @Test
    public void refundingResetsAvailableFundsToZero() throws Exception { //<----new method
        Creditor creditor = new Creditor();
        creditor.addFunds(10);

        int refund = creditor.refund();

        assertEquals(10, refund);
        assertEquals(0, creditor.getAvailableFunds()); 
    }
}
