type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki

NetBeans can create the basic test class for us:

# Right click your `Calculator` class in the <<menu "Projects">> pane and select <<menu "Tools > Create/Update Tests">>.

# The default class name should be OK.  Set the rest of the options as follows:<div>
[[plantuml[

{
  {
