You configure utPLSQL test suite in special comments — called annotations — right inside the PL/SQL package specification.
Annotations are comment lines starting with --%. They tell the framework what is a suite, what is a test, what procedures need to be called for setup or cleanup logic. The framework reads them at runtime so no extra configuration is needed.
Testing PL/SQL code does not need to mean writing throwaway scripts or using a complicated graphical user interface.
utPLSQL gives you a proper test framework — right inside database.
A utPLSQL test is just a package annotated as --%suite with procedures annotated as --%test. The framework finds them automatically.

For last 18 months or so, I was heavily involved in design and development of new version of utPLSQL v3. After a year of development, we've published utPLSQL version 3.0.0 in May 2017 and now we are at version 3.0.3.
