Creating a New Test Class

How to Create a Test Class

Create an ETLUnit test class with any ASCII compatible text editor.

Test Class File Naming

• The name of the file containing the test class should end with the extension, '.etlunit.'
• The file name does not have to have the same name as the test class.
• The file may contain multiple test classes.

Test Class Content Format

The syntax used in ETLUnit test classes is proprietary to ETLUnit.  In appearance, it appears to be a cross between an object oriented programming language like Java, and JSON syntax. SEE the Test Class Declaration example below.
