Using the isTest(SeeAllData=true) Annotation
Annotate your test class or test method with IsTest(SeeAllData=true) to open up
data access to records in your organization.
This example shows how to define a
test class with the isTest(SeeAllData=true) annotation. All the test methods in this class have access to all
data in the organization.
This second example shows how to apply
the isTest(SeeAllData=true) annotation on a test method. Because the class that the test method
is contained in isn’t defined with this annotation, you have
to apply this annotation on the test method to enable access to all
data for that test method. The second test method doesn’t have
this annotation, so it can access only the data it creates in addition
to objects that are used to manage your organization, such as users.
- Considerations for the IsTest(SeeAllData=true) Annotation
- If a test class is defined with the isTest(SeeAllData=true) annotation, this annotation applies to all its test methods whether the test methods are defined with the @isTest annotation or the testmethod keyword.
- The isTest(SeeAllData=true) annotation is used to open up data access when applied at the class or method level. However, using isTest(SeeAllData=false) on a method doesn’t restrict organization data access for that method if the containing class has already been defined with the isTest(SeeAllData=true) annotation. In this case, the method will still have access to all the data in the organization.
