Resharper将我的NUnit测试标记为未使用

Question

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and NUnit 2.6.3 together with Resharper 8.2

Resharper recognizes my Unit tests (so I can run them with Resharper) but yet they are all marked as unused (classes as well as the individual test methods). I know how to suppress the warning with a comment at each test class but I am looking for a solution without such comments because they also affect test code that is really unused (and thus I should be warned).

From my understanding this should work out of the box for NUnit tests but I can't manage to make it work. Do I have to change some settings? I googled quite a while but didn't find anything.

You need to install ReSharper ExternalAnnotations to solve the problem. VS2008 does not support ReSharper Extension Manager, so please install it manually:

1. Download nuget package ;
2. Open it using any archiver software like WinZip;
3. Extract all folders from ..\\ReSharper\\vAny\\annotations\\ to C:\\Program Files (x86)\\JetBrains\\ReSharper\\v8.2\\Bin\\ExternalAnnotations ;
4. Then restart Visual Studio;
