When should I use Johansen Test of Cointegration?

When should I use Johansen Test of Co-integration?

Assume three variables such as Y, X1 and X2 are integrated of order 1, that is I(1), meaning that variables are non stationary at level but if I convert them into first differenced, they will become stationary. Indeed, it is the condition to run Johansen test of co-integartion.  Now, I shall put all three non-stationary variables (that is level data) in EVIEWS platform and run the Johansen test to check whether variables are co-integrated or not.
