Two For The Price Of One
^^^^^
**Definition:**

* Sometimes a sign of missing parameterised tests – where a single test case is testing two use cases with the same set up


**Code Example:**

.. code-block:: java

    private LocalDateTime now = LocalDateTime.now();
    private LocalDateTime tomorrow = LocalDateTime.plus(1, DAYS);
    private LocalDateTime yesterday = LocalDateTime.minus(1, DAYS);
    
    @Test
    public void dateComparisonWorksForPastAndFuture() {
        assertDateComparison(now, tomorrow, "is in the future");
        assertDateComparison(now, yesterday, "is in the past");
    }
    
    private void assertDateComparison(LocalDateTime baseline,
                                    LocalDateTime compare,
                                    String expected) {
        assertEquals(expected, MyDates.describe(baseline, compare);
    }
