Check if-else statement in one time using JUnit testing

I try to test on how to get index 0 and 5 value from my file. I can get the value. But, to test the value with JUnit, i can only test if(index==0) but it did not check for (index==5).

So, how can i test both index in one time using if else ? 

@Test
public void test(){
    for(index = 0; index<arrayList.size(); index++){
        if(index==0 && index==5){
            given()
                .header(something)
                .get(something)
                .then(something)
                .body("try", contains(arrayList.get(index).getSomething(),arrayList.get(index).getSomething()))
                .log().all()
                .statusCode(HttpStatus.SC_OK)
        }
    }
}

Simple:

 for(index = 0; index<arrayList.size(); index++){
    if(index==0 && index==5){

This says: if index is 0 and index is 5.

An int can't have two values at the same time. You probably want:

if(index==0 || index==5){

But of course: Timothy is correct, you want one "check" per test.

The proper solution would be: write a private helper method that takes an parameter indexToCheckFor, so that you can do 

private void testForIndex(int indexToCheckFor) {
....
  if(index == indexToCheckFor) {

and then have two @Test methods, one calling testForIndex(0), the other one calling for 5.

In a unit test each test method verifies a single expectation about the tested units behavior. Therefore you write different tests for different input and/or different expectations.

Also tests should not have (self written) logic.

If you need to iterate over input values you might consider Parameterized tests: http://blog.schauderhaft.de/2012/12/16/writing-parameterized-tests-with-junit-rules/
