TestDriven.Net 2.21: Now includes NUnit 2.5 RC
Support for NUnit 2.5 RC
A couple of days ago, Charlie Poole announced that the first NUnit 2.5 release candidate is now uploaded. I ve hurried to get a new version of TestDriven.Net with support for this version ready. I m happy to announce that TestDriven.Net 2.21 Beta (which includes NUnit 2.5 RC) is now available for download.

This is a major NUnit release with lots of new features. Here is the list that was posted on the NUnit mailing list:
- Parameterized (data-driven) tests are supported, with features similar to those found in mbUnit and xUnit.net.
- Theories - as used in JUnit- are supported fully, including support for Assume.That.
- New attributes allow the specifying the thread and apartment state requirements of a test.
- Exception handling can now be moved into the test code using Assert.Throws or the Throws.Exception syntax.
- Test methods and fixtures may now be generic and many asserts and constraint expressions now support generic syntax.
- Many constraints now permit substitution of a user-defined comparison algorithm through the Using modifier. Lambda expressions are supported.
- Test execution may now take place in a separate process for better isolation.
- Tests may be loaded and executed using a selected runtime version.
- Tests, setup methods, teardown methods and data sources may be static if desired. If there are no instance methods, then NUnit doesn’t need to construct your test class.
- Source code is displayed in the gui, where available.
Charlie has also posted a top 10 reasons try NUnit 2.5.
Improved x86 / 32-bit support on a 64-bit OS
This version also contains improved support for running tests in a 32-bit process. To configure a test project for 32-bit execution, simply select x86 as the Platform target in the project properties. After doing this, the Run Test(s) and Test With > NUnit 2.5 commands will execute your tests in a 32-bit process (this doesn t work for NUnit 2.4). By default projects configured for Any CPU will execute tests in a 64-bit process (unless you re testing with NCover, Team Coverage or dotTrace).
Experimental Visual Studio 2010 support
TestDriven.Net was working with the Visual Studio 2010 PDC CTP version. Unfortunately I ve had less luck with more recent pre-Beta versions (Visual Studio was crashing). You can try the experimental support by choosing Custom setup and enabling the Visual Studio 2010 feature. There is a chance this will be working again when the Visual Studio 2010 Beta is released.
Trace/debug messages now appear in Debug pane
When stepping through code started from TestDriven.Net, you may have noticed that trace/debug messages appeared in the Test pane but not the Debug pane. Trace/debug diagnostic messages will only appear in the Test pane when targeting specific tests, but not when executing all tests in a project / solution.
Release Notes & Download
Here are links to the TestDriven.Net release notes and download.
Don t hesitate to contact me or the NUnit team if you find any issues with this release.
