6442   An abstract class method cannot have a unitTest option

Cause

This error occurs if you attempt to compile a method in an abstract JadeTestCase subclass and the method includes a unitTest option; that is, unitTestBeforeClass, unitTestBefore, unitTest, unitTestIgnore, unitTestAfter, or unitTestAfterClass.

Action
