      6  * A test case defines the fixture to run multiple tests. To define a test case<br>
      7  * 1) implement a subclass of TestCase<br>
      8  * 2) define instance variables that store the state of the fixture<br>
      9  * 3) initialize the fixture state by overriding <code>setUp</code><br>
     10  * 4) clean-up after a test by overriding <code>tearDown</code>.<br>
     11  * Each test runs in its own fixture so there
     12  * can be no side effects among test runs.
     13  * Here is an example:
     14  * <pre>
     15  * public class MathTest extends TestCase {
     16  *     protected double fValue1;
     17  *     protected double fValue2;
     18  *
     19  *    protected void setUp() {
     20  *         fValue1= 2.0;
     21  *         fValue2= 3.0;
     22  *     }
     23  * }
     24  * </pre>
     25  *
     26  * For each test implement a method which interacts
     27  * with the fixture. Verify the expected results with assertions specified
     28  * by calling <code>assertTrue</code> with a boolean.
     29  * <pre>
     30  *    public void testAdd() {
     31  *        double result= fValue1 + fValue2;
     32  *        assertTrue(result == 5.0);
     33  *    }
     34  * </pre>
     35  * Once the methods are defined you can run them. The framework supports
     36  * both a static type safe and more dynamic way to run a test.
     37  * In the static way you override the runTest method and define the method to
     38  * be invoked. A convenient way to do so is with an anonymous inner class.
     39  * <pre>
     40  * TestCase test= new MathTest("add") {
     41  *        public void runTest() {
     42  *            testAdd();
     43  *        }
     44  * };
     45  * test.run();
     46  * </pre>
     47  * The dynamic way uses reflection to implement <code>runTest</code>. It dynamically finds
     48  * and invokes a method.
     49  * In this case the name of the test case has to correspond to the test method
     50  * to be run.
     51  * <pre>
     52  * TestCase= new MathTest("testAdd");
     53  * test.run();
     54  * </pre>
     55  * The tests to be run can be collected into a TestSuite. JUnit provides
     56  * different <i>test runners</i> which can run a test suite and collect the results.
     57  * A test runner either expects a static method <code>suite</code> as the entry
     58  * point to get a test to run or it will extract the suite automatically.
     59  * <pre>
     60  * public static Test suite() {
     61  *      suite.addTest(new MathTest("testAdd"));
     62  *      suite.addTest(new MathTest("testDivideByZero"));
     63  *      return suite;
     64  *  }
     65  * </pre>
     66  * @see TestResult
     67  * @see TestSuite
