Learn about unit testing and why you should want to use them!

A Unit Test is a small piece of software code that tests specific
functionality in other code.  Unit Tests are used to automate software
testing.  They can help you answer questions like:

* Is this code done?
* Does this code work?
* Does that bug-fix still work after some other change?
* Will this new change break anything?

Examples will include:

JUnit - http://www.junit.org/
Python Unit tests - http://pyunit.sourceforge.net/

[Editor's note: Rob didn't say which Python unit testing framework
he's using, but PyUnit seems to be the de facto standard, so that is
my guess.]

The meeting proper ends around 9ish, but it's not uncommon to find

third floor conference room), of Morse Hall, at the University of New
Hampshire, in Durham.
