SimplyVBUnit

Being a VB6 unit testing framework, SimplyVBUnit was written in Visual Basic 6 and requires minimal effort on your side when trying to enjoy its capabilities, considering that no implementation is necessary, and you simply need to add a new class to your tests.

To be more specific as to the purpose SimplyVBUnit serves, it need be mentioned that it is able to identify test methods within classes automatically. What’s more, you may want to know that parameterized test methods are supported, and the same can be said about the assertion of expected errors to be raised.

Moreover, if you turn to SimplyVBUnit, it might be relevant to know that it can handle the categorization of unit tests as well as test fixtures.

In case you don’t want to rely on project templates, starting a new project is possible. One important step you must not overlook is selecting the general error trapping option that suits your needs. Once this task is carried out, you can add the DLL project you are interested in to the group that is due for testing.

If you intend to test multiple scenarios, you may want to resort to the iTestCaseSource interface, which you can implement on a test class so that you may come up with explicit unit tests for each situation in part.
