SQL Developer Unit Testing - Validation with PL/SQL

Question

Hi,
I am trying to create Unit tests using SQL Developer UT framework.
But when i am creating validation using User PL/SQL code option.
Then how can i check value returned by l_count in code snippet below:
-- Please raise an exception if the validation fails.
-- For example:
DECLARE
l_count NUMBER;
wrong_count EXCEPTION;
BEGIN
SELECT count(*) into l_count
FROM test_recon
WHERE
match_num = 99836936
AND Stg_status_flag <> 'E';
IF l_count = 0
THEN
RAISE wrong_count;
END IF;
END;
Also, can someone please refer me to few more demo examples (apart from oracle docs) to implement good test cases with SQL developer.
I appreciate your help.
Regards
Dipali

Probably not the answer you're looking for, but back when I was playing around with the Unit Test stuff, I didn't have sys privs, and the DBAs were a little busy at the time to set a up a repository for me. Rather than wait, I installed Oracle XE on my machine and created a small dev schema and deployed unit test to that. It's so much easier to perform quick proof of concepts when you have full control.
