NUnit Extensions

[Fabio Maulo]

Hi all.

I was talking with Charlie, a bit, about some new syntax for NUnit3.

Now I'm part of NUnit-Dev.

I want invite you to download and try NUnitEx.

http://code.google.com/p/nunitex/

NUnitEx is not a substitution on NUnit constraints nor assertion; you can use all together.

The intention of NUnitEx is write short assertions where the Visual-Studio IDE intellisense is "your friend".

The full syntax overview is available here:

http://code.google.com/p/nunitex/wiki/SyntaxOverview

I would like to know your opinion about the "viability" of the syntax for the coming NUnit version.

Thanks.
Fabio Maulo

It would be great if a few people tried it and reported what you think here.

 

Too much of our discussion about this stuff consists of one programmer

trying to "prove"  to another that his way is better. Rather than discusive

argumentation about various syntaxes, we'd rather hear from people who

say "I used this and here is how it seemed to me..." 

 

So please don't hesitate to report how it felt to work with this api. We'll

have some sort of advanced syntax in the .NET 3.5 build of the new

framework, but the devil is in the details, so tell us what you liked and

didn't like and let's see if we can't iterate toward a solution that works

for the greatest number of people!

Hi Charly,
I've being using NUnit for a couple years, and NUnitEx just a couple
days, so I'm not really used to the full Ex API.
Anyway, I think the Fluent API that Fabio did is really easy to use
and readable. Althought the fluent does not replace the common API,
it's still really handy to use in some cases.
It would be really cool to have both in the NUnit core for sure!.

I'm currently using nunitex and I really like two thinks about it:

1- The syntax is more clear than common assertions.
2- Very easy to extend. Look this patch : http://code.google.com/p/nunitex/source/detail?r=119

I'm using NUnitEx almost from the beggining and i'm already very used
and happy with it.
I had some things i wanted to add and change to the API as part of the
usage in my current application, and Fabio kindly added the
suggestions that were agreed as improvements, so I suggest people to
play with it and discuss how to improve it also.

Gustavo.

Hi Fabio,

 

I wanted to again mention - there is no listing for NUnitEx

on the website - http://nunit.org/?p=extensions

 

Is there some reason you may not want to list it?

I made me the same question...

Should I send you the information requested here http://nunit.org/index.php?p=yourExtension to you in a private mail ?

Hi Fabio,

 

Yes, you can send it to me. That way, the entry content is under your control.

 

Soon, it will be on the wiki instead, so you can modify it yourself.

I've being using NUnitEx for about one month. And i should notice that
now i use NUnitEx syntax only. I like it readable syntax. And yes,
intellisense is my friend now. :)

Thanks you guys for both - great unit testing framework and for great
extension on it.

[pedro wood]

I've been using NUnitEx for a while and really like the fluid
assertions.
The syntax it's really easy to learn and use and very clear in
communicating the intent of the test.

Thanks for both NUnit and NUnitEx.
