<h2 id="hd_id491656351958796">Definitions</h2>
<h3 id="hd_id31656351967453">Test Case</h3>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id571656351977812">A test case is the individual unit of testing. It checks for a specific response to a particular set of inputs.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id391656352078166">In the <literal>UnitTest</literal> service, a test case is represented by a single Basic <literal>Sub</literal> whose name starts with a common prefix (the default is "Test_").</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id701656352338645">The test case fails if one of the <literal>AssertX</literal> methods returns <literal>False</literal>.</paragraph>
<h3 id="hd_id431656352497598">Test Suite</h3>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id771656352513789">A test suite is a collection of test cases that should be executed together.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id941656352597973">All test cases of a test suite are stored in a single Basic module.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id51656352696989">A test suite may implement the <literal>SetUp</literal> and <literal>TearDown</literal> methods to prepare for test cases in its module.</paragraph>
<h3 id="hd_id351656352884283">Unit Test</h3>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id461656352894003">A full unit test consists of a set of test suites in the same Basic library.</paragraph>
<h2 id="hd_id991656353328287">Service invocation</h2>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id141609955500101">Before using the <literal>UnitTest</literal> service the <literal>ScriptForge</literal> library needs to be loaded or imported:</paragraph>

<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id331656358092318">In simple mode, the service is invoked inside the test case, as shown in the example below:</paragraph>

<h3 id="hd_id341656353807950">Full mode</h3>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id881656353390116">When invoked in <emph>full mode</emph>, the service creation is external to the test code and all tests are organized into test cases and test suites inside a single library.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id41656354017140">The following example creates a <literal>UnitTest</literal> instance whose tests are located inside the current document (<literal>ThisComponent</literal>) in the "Tests" library.</paragraph>
