builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc=doc)
builder.insert_field(field_code=' DATE \\@ "dddd, d MMMM yyyy" ')
builder.insert_field(field_code=' TIME ')
builder.insert_field(field_code=' REVNUM ')

self.assertEqual(6, fields.count)
# Below are four ways of removing fields from a field collection.
# 1 -  Get a field to remove itself:
fields[0].remove()
self.assertEqual(5, fields.count)
# 2 -  Get the collection to remove a field that we pass to its removal method:
last_field = fields[3]
fields.remove(last_field)
self.assertEqual(4, fields.count)
# 3 -  Remove a field from a collection at an index:
fields.remove_at(2)
self.assertEqual(3, fields.count)
# 4 -  Remove all the fields from the collection at once:
fields.clear()
self.assertEqual(0, fields.count)
