Standard Output from MSTest, NUnit, MbUnit, xUnit.NET test runners

Question

How do you in any of the common .NET testing frameworks MSTest, NUnit, MbUnit, or xUnit.NET get the command line test runner to output a simple yes/no or true/false or 1/0 on whether all the tests passed or failed?

I'm open to workarounds like:
1) no output if all the tests passed, output if anything fails.
2) count of tests that failed. I could look for zero or non-zero values.
3) other things similiar to #1 or #2

Which of these frameworks provide this kind of capability. I did some playing with MSTest today and didn't see a way to make MSTest.exe output something I could use.

Answer 1

they all output XML if you want (esp MSTEST). You can use XSLT like my version for MSTEST

Answer 2

Have a look at Gallio, a framework and other tools (test runner, etc.) that MbUnit is built on, but that also handles the outputs MSTest, NUnit, RSpec, etc.

EDIT: So, while that isn't exactly what you asked for, if you use the output from the Gallio test-runner, then you've got free support for the test formats - its essentially a standard output.

Answer 3

MSTest and most other runners return an exitcode you can check on.
