+====== Setting up to unit tests and run em automagically on code change ======
+In the run configuration (nav-bar, left for the green RUN arrow), click edit run configurations):
+  * Top left, + sign for adding a new run configuration
+  * Select "Python's test" and "py.test" in the tree-view on the left side bar.
+Run configuration options should be the following:
+  * Name: NAV UNITTESTS
+  * Target: ''$NAV-ROOT/python/runtests.py''
+  * Options: ticked and text box should contain: ''../tests/unittests''
+  * Working directory: ''$NAV-ROOT/python''
+  * Click apply and save.
+NAV UNITTESTS run configuration should now be available from the drop down of various run configurations.
+Run it once .. a panel pane at the bottom screen panel pops up and it starts looking for tests and running em.\\
+Ignore output saying Empty test suite, that's just test cases which contains no unit tests so no worries.\\
+BUT to the left at this bottom screen panel, below the green double arrow, CHECK IT. (tooltip says: toggle automatic rerun of tests on code change)
+Be a happy hacker practicing TDD!
+Note 1: Bottom screen panel can be toggled by clicking in bottom left corner! :-)\\
+Note 2: Yes, it will run your tests, maybe not right after you click SAVE, but soon after.
