Are you a package maker and would like to add some automated (unit) tests? Automated tests can be extremely useful in a medium to large package to ensure you don't break something else when you change one thing. Check out the [https://forums.mudlet.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=22857 LuaUnit package] for this.

= How to test Mudlet =
Are you a Mudlet developer or Mudlet tester looking to test Mudlet itself? See below for some common scenarios:

== Simulate a fresh install ==

To simulate a fresh install of Mudlet, close Mudlet first, rename/delete the:

* on Windows - your windows account folder, then the ''.config'' and the ''mudlet'' folder within. Also rename/delete the Mudlet registry entry in ''HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\mudlet''
* on Linux - your home folder, show hidden files, then the ''.config'' and the ''mudlet/Mudlet'' folders within
* on Mac - your users folder, then the ''.config'' and the ''mudlet/Mudlet'' folders within
