I have a controller without any dml statements. How can i write test class for the controller to improve the coverage area ?

For sure you have a VF page for your controller ( example EmployeVF)so you can simply have a test class like this one .

@isTest
private class payslipController_TEST {

    static testMethod void TestController()
    {

      // you need to do the insert statement for the data that you want to selectt in the controller.
        Employee__c emp = new Employee__c();
        insert emp;
     
         test.startTest();
         PageReference pageRef = Page.EmployeVF;
         pageRef.getParameters().put('eno', emp.id);
        Test.setCurrentPageReference(pageRef);
         payslipController paysLip= new payslipController();

         test.stopTest();  
}

}

and in case you have other functionality in the controller you can simply invoke them after intiating the constuctor.

Good Luck

@Tony Thanks for quick response, I am using like below code , The test methods are not passing and coverage area is 0% only

@isTest
private class payslipController_TEST {

    static testMethod void TestController()
    {

        SFDC_Employee__c emp = new SFDC_Employee__c();
        insert emp;
     
         test.startTest();
         PageReference pageRef = Page.PaySlipPage;
         pageRef.getParameters().put('eno', '0000613');
        Test.setCurrentPageReference(pageRef);
         payslipController paysLip= new payslipController();

         test.stopTest();  
}

}

Try the below :

1- if there is a try catch in the test method class remove them ( and run the test class).

2- for testing purpose use the seealldata so you can test with the current data without doing insert statement in test class( may be there is a trigger that is generating the problem).

3- if it doesn't work post the test class as is so i can check it for you.

Thanks for that ! I already posted my test class that i am using now :) I will try it using seeAlldata now
