Whenever an exception is thrown CDD gets activated automatically and extracts a test cases that is able to reproduce the observed failure. Once a test case is extracted it shows up in the test case view and behaves like an ordinary manually written test cases.

Test cases are autmatically executed after every compilation. Execution can be restricted, disabled and individual test cases can be started in debug mode.
