How to Write Doc Comments for the Javadoc Tool

  • A doc comment is written in HTML and must precede a class, field,
    constructor or method declaration. It is made up of two parts --
    a description followed by block tags. In this example, the block
    tags are @param, @return, and
    @see.
  • An @param tag is "required" (by convention) for every parameter,
    even when the description is
    obvious. The @return tag is required for every method that returns something
    other than void, even if it is redundant with the method description.
    (Whenever possible, find something non-redundant (ideally, more specific) to use
    for the tag comment.)

Just keep pressing on and pay careful attention to mental assertions you're making that could be codified in tests. Your brain will love you for it!
