The latest release should be NUnit-2.5.1.9189 compatible (the latest nunit release).

It took some while, but the latest release should be NUnit-2.5.1.9189 compatible (the latest nunit release).

Now that Visual Studio 2010 beta 1 is available, please share any plans you might have for supporting it with this tool.

When do you plan to support NUnit 2.5.0.9122, the official release version of NUnit?

When I try to invoke any of my NUnit tests from a sample project, they fail with the following error message that points to a bad StringBuilder.AppendFormat() call within NUnitForVSTS.NUnitHandling.NUnitTestExecuter:

vstesthost.exe Error: 0 : Unit Test Executor threw exception: System.FormatException: Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

hmm... That one seems to reference to a unittest which wasn't checked in.

I had to comment out method RunOrderTest in NUnitTestAdapterTest.cs because when I try to Build/Batch Build.../Select All, I get this error message in Visual Studio Team System 2008 Developer Edition, Service Pack 1:

The type or namespace name 'TestFixtureOrderTwo' does not exist in the namespace 'NUnitTest.UnitTest.Targets' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Workaround: surround method RunOrderTest() if #if/#endif that is never true and keep fingers crossed that it isn't fatal to do so.

You have to install NUnit.

New Post: Unable to Add NUnit Test to simple console project

fmorriso — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:26:46 GMT

I installed the latest edition of NUnitForVS into Visual Studio Team System 2008 Development Edition with SP1, .Net Framework 3.5 SP1, .Net Framework 2.0 SP2 on Windows XP Professional SP3.

I created a simple Windows Console application named NUnitForVsExample.

Inside Solution Explorer, I clicked on the project (not the solution), and selected Add New Item, NUnit Test, and received the following error:

The assembly refererence "nunit.framework" could not be added to the project. This wizard will continue to run, but the resulting project may not build properly.

Any atetempt to build the project flags all "using NUnit.Framework;" lines with errors.

What can be done to fix this error?

New Post: Does NUnitForVS run tests in-process for VS2008?

nesher — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 20:45:23 GMT

Hi jesse1008,
NUnitForVS was implemented as an temporary solution for a slow migration of our nunit test to mstest. It does not use NUnit assemblies to run test. Instead they are used to find TestFixtures and Tests. It has the same speed as VS2005 mstest.

New Post: Does NUnitForVS run tests in-process for VS2008?

jesse1008 — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 19:23:58 GMT

I know that VS-2008 has modified it's test runner to avoid incurring the overhead of spinning up a new thread for every test list run. However, does this benefit extend to NUnitForVS?

The large project that I'm starting up is planning on using NUnit for testing, and with this plugin we could then have IDE-integrated testing as well. However, one of the main reasons, like so many others, that I avoided the MSTest feature in VS is the marked slowness of it over the speed of NUnit as is.

As I've just learned, NUnit has its own shadow cache of files so that having NUnit-GUI open doesn't prevent recompiling your code. Thus, I would think that the "must copy files first' overhead is now present in both NUnit-GUI and in MSTest equally. Any delay between these would be threading issues, right? Is NUnit only fast when you don't enable the shadow-copy?

I'm somewhat concerned I'd be taking a step backwards to let clunky MSTest take over my NUnit test runs by using this tool. And since I'm training developers who are new to all this, I'd rather not mis-train them by injecting a tool I have to yank weeks down the road.

Thoughts?

New Post: NUnit 2.5

sergiorgiraldo — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 12:59:37 GMT

I installed the package, created test.nunit, my project is recognized as a test project, when I go to "new test" I see NUnit option, everything seems fine. Except that my nunit tests aren´t recognized as tests to be run.
I use the latest release, 2.5, can this be the reason ?

I am also receiving the error upon install described above:

"Error 1001. Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information."

It did not specify which types it could not load. I have Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (with the Test Tools) installed to the default location. My OS is Windows XP. I have generated a log file using MSIEXEC and will be happy to send it to you via private message if you like. Here is the error section specifically from the log:

Problem solved. Just needed the nunit project file, which I thought was in there.

I have VS2008 Team Suite.

I've since found the issue with this message -- no one to blame but myself. The issue was that I installed VS2008 to an alternate location -- C:\VS2K8 -- I like it there as opposed to buried in C:\Program Files to make it more accessible from the command prompt. Anyway, I blew past the installer's prompt for the location of VS 2008. Once I realized my stupidity, I entered the proper path and the installer worked.

However, I had an existing project in which I was using for nUnit tests. I followed the instructions on converting the project, but the test still don't show up. I must be missing something else. I will look elsewhere here for anything I may have missed.

Please be sure that you installed Visual Studio with Test tools before you install NUnitForVS. Not all editions of VS includes Test tools.

I have experienced the same issue: "Error 1001: Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information."

I am running Win XP SP3 with both VS 2005 and VS 2008 installed.
