CTRL + 1

(COMMAND + 1 on Mac)

If no superclass method exists to copy and you typed something like "myClass.newMethod(myInt, myEmployee)", Eclipse can generate newMethod in myClass using the types of the arguments provided.

Type pu and then hit CTRL + SPACE and then ENTER.

If you press ALT + SHIFT+ S.
There comes a dropdown, then select the override/implement methods, from there you can setup and implement the method in the prefered way.

Type your method name and hit Ctrl + Space.

Also worth noting is, type 'test' and hit Ctrl + Space and it will give you the option to create a test method stub.
