About unit testing
-----------------
You can create some test cases like,

1. Is the report run without any errors
2. If it has prompts, try to run using max possible combinations
3. Match the report output with the report design for the correct alignment, column width and all
4. Match the data output with the the output from the query( you need to create the SQL query for this manually based on the report requirement and execute in data base and you can take to a CSV or some thing and you can compare). This is a little costly


Performance testing
-------------------
1. try to impliment the standard report tuning options available

But performance testing needs to check many, including load on the server and database.

I just thought all these options just now. Many of you can add some more points based on the experience. Please correct/append your suggestions.

Performance testing is as said by the above person
