How do I run JUnit from NetBeans?

Question

I\'ve been trying to understand how to start writing and running JUnit tests.

When I\'m reading this article:

Answer 1

Re-importing does not appear to be necessary. I had the same issue (imported project, right clicking did not bring up any JUnit test options). I took these steps, which resolved it, using NetBeans 6.8:

1. Add a folder called "tests" to your project.
2. Right-click your project and select Properties.
3. Select Sources.
4. Under Test Package Folders, click the Add Folder button, and select the "tests" folder.
5. Right clicking a file + Tools > Create JUnit Tests.
6. Once a test is created, right-clicking a file + Test File runs the test.
