+# Guideline for Writing Tests for MATLAB Interface for Apache Arrow
+
+## Overview  
+
+This document is aimed at providing guidelines on testing of the `matlab` 
directory in the [`apache/arrow`](https://github.com/apache/arrow) repository.  
+
+## General Guideline  
+
+When designing any test case, please try to design it at the MATLAB interface 
level such that the tests are testing real use cases. Tests for MATLAB 
interface should use the MATLAB testing framework [`matlab.unittest.TestCase 
class`](https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/matlab.unittest.testcase-class.html).
+
+If the source code cannot be covered by any test at the MATLAB interface 
level, consider adding c++ unit tests by using GoogleTest framework.

Review Comment:
   Currently, there is no need to add c++ tests. I think it is OK to delete the 
mention of c++ tests. In the future, when there is c++ test needed and there is 
a finalized approach of writing c++ test, we can add the c++ testing guideline 
at that time.
