Hi,
We have different categories of tests under various assemblies. What is the best possible way to run them in parallel? I am aware of a task in ant, is there any such task in NANT?
Kind regards,
A:
I think, from memory, you need NUnit version 2.5.x or above to run parallel unit tests, which I also remember being a paid-for product.
However, if you use MbUnit, the Gallio test-runner that it comes with runs the tests in parallel and is free.
Either way, you get NAnt to call the unit test runner (either NCover/NUnit or Gallio) and it runs them from there, and not direct from NAnt as this is just a scripting language, but one with significant power to call-out to other processes.

NUnit is still free.

Ah apologies then - when I was looking into this a while ago, the PUnit stuff was available through 2.5.x but wasn't free. Obviously, since then, things have changed. Cheers for the update!
