 #### Preparations
 Before writing a test case, we need some helper functions in Python, which we will use in our test cases. The first thing we need is a function to load images.

 ## Introduction
 In this example you will learn how to write an automated test for a simple network using the `DicomImport`, `MinMaxScan`, and `View3D` modules. Afterward, you will be able to write test cases for any other module and network yourself.
 
+MeVisLab provides two options to compare a test result with an expected result:
+#### ASSERT
+Multiple **ASSERT_*** functions to compare expected and actual result are available, for example **ASSERT_EQ()** (check if two values are equal) or **ASSERT_GT()** (check if value is greater than another value).
+
+In case an assertion fails, an exception is thrown and the test execution stops.
+#### EXPECT
+The same comparisons can be done by using **EXPECT_***. The functions return *true* or *false* and depending on the result you can decide how to proceed.
+
+Make sure to use the right comparison methods depending on your needs.
