ABAP Unit Tests enable you to write test cases for certain Methods, to check their behaviour and displaying a appropriate protocoll.
These test cases are implemented using usual ABAP classes / methods and can be executed via menü in SE24: Class -> Unit Test

Here is an example of a local class and a local unit test implemented in the same report. Pressing Ctrl+F10 in ABAP editor will execute the Unit Test:
