			<P>Elixir's IDE has a powerful capability to add some process into
			the compilation step.  Since in theory, I run the Unit tests for
			each object immediately after compiling my source code, I don't
			need this step.</P>

			<P>The reality is that I am sometimes lazy, and don't run my JUnit
			tests all the time.</P>

			<P>This tool allows me to place the JUnit test cases directly into
			the compilation process.  If any unit tests fail, then they are listed
			in the same way that compiler errors are.  With a line number and
			a file to edit.</P>

			<P>If you haven't used JUnit before, here is the short description
			of how to use it.</P>

			<OL>
			<LI> Create an object in the same package as the class you are testing.
			   The JUnit build step requires that the object have a name of "Test"
			   or some other prefix followed by the name of the object that you
			   are testing.  The unit test class must extend
			   <CODE>junit.framework.TestCase</CODE>.</LI>
			<LI> Add a constructor that takes a string as input, and passes it off to
			   the parent class.</LI>
			<LI> Create the test cases.  Each test case is a method whose name starts
			   with the word "Test".  Inside each method invoke the method of test case
			   <CODE>assert(String message, boolean value);</CODE> or
			   <CODE>assertEquals(String message, * value1, * value2);</CODE>.</LI>
			<LI> Add a <CODE>protected void setUp()</CODE> method to handle any
			   initialization. (If there is any intialization before each test
			   case.)</LI>
			<LI> Add a <CODE>protected void tearDown()</CODE> method to handle any
			   cleanup. (If there is any cleanup after each test
			   case.)</LI>
			</OL>

			<P>To add this as a build step, you need to place the following
			into your <EM>MyProject</EM>.project.make file.  The step looks
			like:</P>

			<PRE>
&lt;step code="junit.elixir.JUnitBuildStep"&gt;
  &lt;param name="root" value="c:\MySource\"/&gt;
  &lt;param name="prefix" value="Test"/&gt;
&lt;step&gt;
			</PRE>

			<P>The root parameter tells which directory contains the top
			level package.  For instance, if I had a class that was in
			the package org.acm.seguin.refactor.  The root parameter
			specifies the directoring containing org.</P>

			<P>The prefix parameter tells the build step the name of the
			unit test object.  The object should be Test plus the name of
			the object being tested.</P>
