I found this on my system for what it's worth. Apparently it was posted
somewhere by Walter in the dim past.
"Developing ooRexx Test Cases
This cookbook documents my hard way to getting rid of my first
contributions to the
testing of 5.0.0. It's for Windows only,
1) Download SVN if you don't have it
2) Create a directory where you want to maintain the test suite
I used d:\_ooTest
3) check out the suite with this command in a command window
making the directory created under 2) the current directory:
d:\ooTest>svn checkout
https://svn.code.sf.net/p/oorexx/code-0/test/trunk
This will create a folder trunk
The essentials are now:
d:\_ooTest
trunk
framework
ooRexx
4) add these elements to your path
d:\_OOTest\trunk;d:\_OOTest\trunk\framework
5) copy a testgroup file from, e.g.,
d:\_OOTest\trunk\ooRexx\base\bif\ABS.testgroup to d:\ooTest\*.*
6) Edit this file to add tests such as
::method "test_104"
self~expectSyntax(40.3)
x=abs()
::method "test_105"
self~expectSyntax(93.943)
x=abs('A')
7) execute the testgroup by
d:\_ooTest>rexx abs.testgroup
8) When you are happy (the testgroup shows no errors)
copy your changed file back to
d:\_ooTest\trunk\ooRexx\base\bif\abs.testgroup
9) now create a patch using this command
d:\_ooTest\trunk>svn diff > abs.patch
10) Open this page
https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/test-cases
login and create a ticket with the patch attached
Corrections are welcome--
Walter "
Good luck!

This is the test framework and all of the test cases. There's a readme
file in the root that explains how to run the tests. There's not much
documentation available on writing the test cases, but there are many,
many examples available to show you how to do it.

Hello all,
Many of the open tickets have 'tests' as pending work items. I'd
like to help out. Is there any available documentation on:
* how to run the test framework on one's own machine? either all
or part
* how to construct a test
