An automated unit test has three standard parts. Arrange them in the correct order.
Assertion part - compare the result of the call with the expected result
Setup part - initialize the system with the test case inputs and expected outputs
Call part - call the object or method to be tested
Correct Answer
(1) Setup part - initialize the system with the test case inputs and expected outputs
(2) Call part - call the object or method to be tested
(3) Assertion part - compare the result of the call with the expected result
Explanation
Automated tests have three parts in sequence: (1) Setup - initialize the system with the test case (inputs and expected outputs); (2) Call - invoke the object or method being tested; (3) Assertion - compare the actual result with the expected result. If the assertion evaluates to true, the test passed; if false, it failed.
