UnitTestScript : UnitTest : Object

Description

In order to make sure a method works correctly, a test can be implemented that assures the correct behavior.

It is a common practice to write tests to clarify how an object should respond, and it may avoid inconsistencies on the long run.

Test scripts are simply plain text files ending with _unittest.scd, which are interpreted. Scripts may be located next to a class in the classpath or one folder below. If they return a function, the UnitTestScript is passed in, allowing to call methods like assert etc. (see UnitTest)

UnitTestScript mimics some of the behavior of Method, to be compatible with UnitTest.

Class Methods
