== Prerequisite: SimpleVBUnit ==

AccUnit builds on SimplyVBUnit, a unit testing library and framework for VB6.

'''IMPORTANT'''

AccUnit ''requires'' version 3 of SimplyVBUnit which is not available anymore on the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/simplyvbunit/ project's site].

Thus, use this setup file for SimplyVBUnit 3.0: ''[http://accunit.access-codelib.net/download/SimplyVBUnitSetup.zip SimplyVBUnitSetup.zip]''.

== AccUnit Setup ==

Download the setup for AccUnit here: [http://accunit.access-codelib.net/download/AccUnitSetup.zip AccUnitSetup.zip]

Start you installation with ''Setup.exe''. The setup attempts to install the Visual C++ 2010 Runtime. If you encounter problems while that part of the setup (typically because there is already a newer version of the C++ Runtime on your machine), start the installation with ''AccUnitSetup.msi''.

[[Supported Platforms]]

[[Prerequisites]]

Before using AccUnit you have to install SimplyVBUnit 3.0 ([http://sourceforge.net/projects/simplyvbunit/ project page of SimplyVBUnit at sourceforge]).

You will find the setup file here: ''[http://accunit.access-codelib.net/download/SimplyVBUnitSetup.zip SimplyVBUnitSetup.zip]''.

'''''*** IMPORTANT ***'''''
As of November 2012, on the SimplyVBUnit's project site, there is the version v4 of SimplyVBUnit available. That version is '''not compatible''' with AccUnit. Thus, make sure to use the link to SimplyVBUnit 3.0 provided above.

[[de:Erste_Schritte]]

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_testing Software testing] is a important part of software development.

In earlier days testing of a software was typically done at the end of the development cycle.
Since this is very late to uncover severe problems, today's approach relies heavily on test automation. An important part for this is testing individual pieces of the code (unit testing). Even more, with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development Test-Driven-Development (TDD)] tests are written before implementing a part of the application.

Many actual programming languages provide appropriate tools for automated test execution. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Basic_for_Applications VBA] programming language and the Code Editor (the VBE - Visual Basic Editor)
unfortunately only contain rudimentary functionality to support testing of code (Debug.Print, Debug.Assert).

'''AccUnit''' now offers the possibility to run automated tests on MS Access. It uses the SimplyVBUnit, an Unit Testing Framework written in VB6.

The following pages will help you to write the first tests for your application.
