The above Test class Covers the 82% lines but I wanted to have 100%, can anyone please help.

Answer 1

This is because you call the execute method of your batch like a normal class.

To launch a batch you have to use the Database.executeBatch() method.

So for you test, you have to replace the line: bd.execute(null, accc); by:

Database.executeBatch(new BatchApexDemo());
