JUnit - Strange Test Case running problem

Question

Hi Everyone,
I am very new to J Unit testing. Here's my problem. I have a project set up in Net Beans. Inside the project, there is a folder named "tests". This folder contains the following class:
public class Bob
    public static void main(String[] args)
        System.out.println("Hello");
}There are other classes inside of this folder that extend TestCase and TestSuite. They are functionally working according to J Unit testing (they prompt a JUnit Test Results panel in Net Beans with Pass or Fail).
The problem that I am having upon running/executing the class "Bob", NetBeans treats it as a JUnit test case and brings up a Pass/Fail panel. I do not want this to happen. I just want this class to print "Hello" as if it was not a Test. Do you guys have any idea what the problem is? My "Bob" class has nothing imported.
Also, I have another question. Is there a way that I can take INPUT from a user when running a Test Case (such as using the Scanner class)? My test cases seem to skip over the Scanner.nextLine() code for some reason.
Thanks in advance.

Hi BigDaddy,
Thanks for the suggestion, however I am unsure of what you mean by injecting the scanner. Here is an example of what I would like to do:
public class BenchmarkTestSuite extends TestSuite
    public static void main(String[] args)
        try
            Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
            System.out.print("Enter the number of iterations for read: ");
            readIterations = scan.nextInt();
            .... etc
        catch(Exception ex)
            ex.printStackTrace();
    .... etc
}Here, the prompted question for the user gets ignored for some odd reason. I would like for the tests to not start until the question has been answered by the user. NetBeans is strange. I commented all of the test methods to see if the question gets printed to the console, and it does not.
Thanks.
