CONTENTS
AgileUnit is very small (60Kb) the folder you download has much
more then only AgileUnit in it. In there you'll find:

- agileunit (jar of AgileUnit)
- example (sample implementation)
- javadoc (fully javadoc documentation)
- plugins (eclipse plugin for the agile unit class wizard)
- properties (properties and continuous.xml)
- snippets (snippets to speed you up)
- whitepaper (documentation)
- quick_start_readme.txt (this file)


DEFINE AGILE UNIT PROPERTIES
1) copy the content from the folder properties into in your 
   user.home/user directory. In the folder properties you'll find
   a folder called agileunit with proteties-file inside. copy this
   folder into your user.home/user directory.
   EXAMPLE under windows: C:\Users\Ricardo Ferreira\agileunit

IMPORT AGILE UNIT CLASS WIZARD INTO YOUR ECLIPSE IDE
2) copy the content of the plugins folder into your eclipse plugins 
   folder. EXAMPLE: by me it looks like that under windows:
   C:\Program Files\eclipse_jee_galileo\plugins

IMPORT AGILE UNIT SNIPPETS INTO YOUR ECLIPSE IDE
3) import the agileUnit snippets into your eclipse IDE
   EXAMPLE: windows > preferences > java > editor > templates >
   import > locate snippets > push the button apply and OK.

IMPORT AGILE UNIT LIBRARY INTO YOUR PROJECT   
4) Add agileUnit to your class path in your eclipse IDE
   EXAMPLE: right click on your project > properties > 
   Java Build Path > on tab libraries > add library > 
   take user library > next > push user libraries... > new ... >
   define the library name as: agileUnit > push OK. Select the 
   new agileUnit Library and push Add JARs... > locate the folder
   agileunit/agileunit.zip in your desktop. After that select 
   the library with the check box and say finish. 
   you should see the library now in your class path.
  
IMPORT SMALL SAMPLE REFERENCE IMPLEMANTATION TO UNDERSTAND IT
A) import the sample class to see how AgileUnit works. 
   EXMPLE: create a java project. in your src-folder right mouse
   click > import > archive file > browse > locate the folder
   example > sample.zip > finish. A package called sample is 
   created with a red error x on it. RENAME the package to: 
   ch.algoritmo.framework.agileunit.test.example. Run this class.
   EXAMPLE: Run > Run As... > Java Aplication
   Take a look ate the output and now goes thru the class and 
   try to understand it.
