# Testing functions
Once you have created your definitions you want to put them in a main class and have something to display if the functions passed. For example:
```
def test_sum():
assert sum([1, 2, 3]) == 6, "Should be 6"
def test_sum_tuple():
assert sum((1, 2, 2)) == 6, "Should be 6"
if __name__ == "__main__":
test_sum()
test_sum_tuple()
print("Everything passed")
```
