### Write Test Functions in Python

{{<alert class="info" caption="Info">}}
In this example, we are using the **ASSERT*** functionalities, becase they throw an exception in case the expected value does not match the actual value. Your test execution stops in this case.

typo: becase -> because

in case -> in the case (bei 'in case' schwingt Dringlichkeit mit z.B. 'in case of fire...'; 'in the case' bedeutet einfach so viel wie 'if')


You can also use **EXPECT*** functions. They return *true* or *false* and you can decide yourself ho your test continues.

Better use 'True or False' to match the capitalization in Python.

#### 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.

Auch hier lieber True und False schreiben (wie in Python).


Make sure to use the right comparison methods depending on your needs.

The value of our `DicomImport`s *progress* field is saved as the *currentValue* variable and compared to the *expectedValue* variable by calling *ASSERT_FLOAT_EQ(expectedValue,currentValue)* to determine if the DICOM import has finished (*currentValue* and *expectedValue* are equal) or not.

You can play around with the differences between **ASSERT_FLOAT_EQ()** and **EXPECT_FLOAT_EQ()** and le your test fail to see the differences.
