$ more unittest.py

Simple usage:

     import unittest

     class IntegerArithmenticTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
         def testAdd(self):  ## test method names begin 'test*'
             self.assertEquals((1 + 2), 3)
             self.assertEquals(0 + 1, 1)
         def testMultiply(self):
             self.assertEquals((0 * 10), 0)
             self.assertEquals((5 * 8), 40)
