+/**
+ * The class supports method based interface tests development.
+ *
+ * <p>There are some points that should be fulfilled in a subclass to work
+ * correctly in the multi-method framework:
+ *
+ *   1. each subclass should define a public field named oObj of type tested
+ *   by the subclass, e.g. 'public XText oObj;'. That field will be initialized
+ *   by the MultiMethodTest code with the instance of the interface to test.
+ *   In a case of service testing the field type should be XPropertySet.
+ *
+ *   2. for the test of each method of the tested interface(or a property in the
+ *   case of service testing) should be method with the following signature
+ *   provided: 'public void _<method name>()', e.g. 'public void _getText()'.
+ *   The methods will be called by MultiMethodText code using reflection API
+ *   for each method in the interface description.
+ *
+ *   3. to set status for a call 'tRes.tested(String method,
+ *   boolean result)' should be used. For example 'tRes.tested("getText()",
+ *   true)'. Also 'tRes.assert(String assertion, boolean result)' call can
+ *   be used. Note, that one can call the methods not necessarily from the
+ *   test for the tested method, but from other method tests too (in the
+ *   MultiMethodTest subclass). See also TestResult and MultiMethodTest.tRes
+ *   documentation.
+ *
+ *   4. the before() and after() methods can be overridden to perform some
+ *   actions, accordingly, before and after calling the test methods.
+ *
+ *   5. besides tRes, there are some fields initialized in the MultiMethodTest,
+ *   that can be used for implementing tests:
+ *
+ *     - tEnv contains the environment tested
+ *     - tParam contains parameters of the test
+ *     - log a writer to log information about the test
