Historically, unit testing has been around for a long time. It is
simply the act of writing a program to test your program.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_testing refers to one of the original
standards.
"IEEE Standard for Software Unit Testing: An American National
Standard, ANSI/IEEE Std 1008-1987"

Nowadays programmers expect unit testing to be integrated into the
language and/or IDE. JUnit/Eclipse was the first popular package to
implement this kind of unit testing. Just have a look at
http://junit.sourceforge.net/doc/cookbook/cookbook.htm to get a
synopsis of how the syntax is in Java.

Another synopsis is at http://www.xprogramming.com/testfram.htm

Wikipedia says that "The overall design of xUnit frameworks depends on
several components.". I suspect that there are many possible designs
for unit testing in IDL, hence the purpose of this thread.
