Run fitnesse test out of MSTest or NUnit or console application in Visual Studio

Question

I debug fitnesse test next way:

1. I run fitnesse webserver.
2. Go to test page in browser
3. Run test.
4. RunnerW.exe opens.
5. I ReAttach to it.
6. I press Go .

I want to speed up this cycle.

Is next way possible and how?

Eg run MSTest or NUnit or Console application via F5 from Visual studio. Given I referenced fit.dll or fitsharp.dll or convert some jar into dll via IKVM , configured some runners/parsers, defined paths to saved test pages and test pages names.

Other alternatives to have debug mode with one button click from Visual Studio?

Answer 1

Dzmitry, please see here example how to start FitNesse test from Power Shell.

So, answer on your question: execute line:

java -jar fitnesse-standalone.jar -c "InternalTests.NetRunnerRegression?suite&format=xml" -b $xmlFilePath

Where InternalTests.NetRunnerRegression?suite&format=xml is path to your test page, see documentation to check all options available. By this line I started execution test for InternalTests.NetRunnerRegression as suite (eg this page and subpages), and requested result in xml (html by default).
