In the Classic client, on the Tools menu, click Object Designer.

On the Tools menu, click Options.

In the Options window, in the Show C/AL Testability properties field, enter Yes, and then click OK.

In Object Designer, click Codeunit, and then click New.

On the View menu, click Properties.

In the Properties window, in the Subtype field, select TestRunner to specify that this is a test runner codeunit.

In the C/AL Editor, in the OnRun function, enter code to run the test codeunits. For example, the following code in the OnRun function of a test runner codeunit runs three test codeunits.

	Copy Code
CODEUNIT.RUN(CODEUNIT::CustomerDiscount); CODEUNIT.RUN(CODEUNIT::TaxCalculationTest); CODEUNIT.RUN(CODEUNIT::ItemCostingTest);

Note
You may want to define your test suite in a table and then write code in the OnRun function of the test runner codeunit to iterate through items in the table and run each test codeunit.

(optional) To create an OnBeforeTestRun trigger, do the following steps:

1. On the View menu, click C/AL Globals.

2. In the C/AL Globals window, on the Functions tab, on a new line in the Name field, enter OnBeforeTestRun, and then click Locals.

3. In the C/AL Locals window, on the Parameters tab, enter the following.

   Name	DataType	Length
   CodeunitID	Integer
   CodeunitName	Text	30
   FunctionName	Text	30

4. In the C/AL Locals window, on the Return Value tab, enter the following.

   Name	Return type
   OK	Boolean

5. Close the C/AL Locals window.

6. In the C/AL Editor, in the OnBeforeTestRun trigger, enter code that executes before each test function. Typically, the code in the OnBeforeTestRun function determines if the test function should execute and returns true if it should. Otherwise, the trigger returns false. The OnBeforeTestRun trigger may also initialize logging variables. For example, the following code initializes a logging variable and returns true to indicate that the test function should execute. This example requires that you create the following global variable.

   Name	DataType
   Before	DateTime

   	Copy Code
   Before := CURRENTDATETIME; EXIT(true);

(optional) Do the following steps to create an OnAfterTestRun trigger:

1. On the View menu, click C/AL Globals.

2. In the C/AL Globals window, on the Functions tab, on a new line in the Name field, enter OnAfterTestRun, and then click Locals.

3. In the C/AL Locals window, on the Parameters tab, enter the following.

   Name	DataType	Length
   CodeunitID	Integer
   CodeunitName	Text	30
   FunctionName	Text	30
   Success	Boolean

4. Close the C/AL Locals window.

5. In the C/AL Editor, in the OnAfterTestRun trigger, enter code that executes after each test function. For example, the following code logs the results of the tests to the test reporting system. This example requires that you create a record variable named log.

   	Copy Code
   log.INIT; log.UnitId := CodeunitId; log.Unit := CodeunitName; log.Func := FunctionName; log.Before := Before; log.After := CURRENTDATETIME; If Success THEN log.Status := log.Status::Success ELSE BEGIN log.Status := log.Status::Failure; IF FunctionName <> '' THEN log.Message := GETLASTERRORTEXT; END log.INSERT(true);

   Note
   If you implement the OnAfterTestRun trigger, then it suppresses the automatic display of the results message after the test codeunit runs.

On the File menu, click Save.

In the Save As window, in the ID field, enter 50006. In the Name field, enter TestRunner. Verify that the Compiled check box is selected, and then click OK.
