Hi,
I'm currently using MSTest in VS2008 for unit tests, but I am looking at going to xUnit.net.
Question - What would be the easiest way to get my unit tests running continually locally (on my PC) and with some sort of visual alert of pass / # of fails.
i.e. similar to what we do in Ruby on Rails with autospec.
THanks
PS Intersested in hearing of the simplest open source option too.
Resharper's test runner runs within VS, can run just a single test or a whole suite, and appears to support xUnit with a plugin.
You should also ask this on http://xunit.codeplex.com/Thread/List.aspx
There's an xUnit GUI runner and it has an auto-reload when DLLs get touched.
The missing bit is the auto-rerun of the last of executed tests when that happens. The minute we have that, you're just a Shift F6 (compile current project) away from waht you want.
The xunit.net guys are normally quite responsive, and avote on [my] http://xunit.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=8832 would help.
Regarding your other comment - I really believe xUnit.net is worth your effort using. You won't look back.
