指定要运行的NUnit测试

Question

I have an NUnit project creating a Console Application for running tests. The entry point looks like this:

class Program
{
    [STAThread]
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string[] my_args = { Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location };

        int returnCode = NUnit.ConsoleRunner.Runner.Main(my_args);

        if (returnCode != 0)
            Console.Beep();

    }
}

What can I pass in as an argument if I wanted to run this one test ONLY:

[TestFixture]
public class EmailNotificationTest
{
    [Test]
    public void MailerDefaultTest()
    {
        Assert.IsTrue(false);
    }
}

Clearly this is supported, and just as clearly I have no idea how to do it.

UPDATE

It looks like with v3+, this is possible with the --test option, per the documentation .

Answer 1

The latest version (NUnit 3) allows to debug tests and also to specify test(s) for execution.

Debug

The --debug option launches debugger to debug tests, for example:

nunit3-console.exe "C:\path\to\the\tests.dll" --debug

Filter tests

Now you have a number of different ways to select test(s) to run. The first option is --test=NAMES . Combining this option and --debug you can easily debug only one test, for example:

nunit3-console.exe "C:\path\to\the\tests.dll" --debug --test="EmailNotificationTest.MailerDeSecondTest" 

Don't forget about the namespace if the class has it.

Using --testlist=PATH option you can run all tests specified in a file, for example:

nunit3-console.exe "C:\path\to\the\tests.dll" --debug --testlist="testnames.txt" 

There is also --where=EXPRESSION option indicating what tests will be run. This option is intended to extend or replace the earlier --test , --include and --exclude options. Please check the official documentation if you want to know more about this option.

Answer 2

You can mark your test with [Category("RunOnlyThis")] attribute, and then tell NUnit to run tests only matching this specific category:

 /include:RunOnlyThis

is the attribute you need to add to console runner arguments. More here .

Answer 3

You can use /run switch of NUnit console to specify the test that you want to run.

Like this:

/run:namespace.classname.functionName

Eg

nunit-console.exe "C:\UnitTests.dll" /run:UnitTests.EmailNotificationTest.MailerDefaultTest

Answer 4

As @Toto said, use the NUnit Gui , you can pick and choose.

Answer 5

An application comes with NUnit, and the application can launch the test you want. It's really useful, and you don't have to write code to run test.
