... Either way, you do the arrange at test writing time, do you not? If I understand your meaning correctly, you've got classes with attributes that affect...
George, that is what I mean, it's just as a beginner it seems a bit weird to be doing the arranging without any run time actions. I'm sure I'll get over it...
... Hm. I don't understand that statement: what's the difference between design and development? What we write code, it's all design, isn't it? ... J. B. (Joe)...
I have a set of XML files that I want to test for internal consistency. What I want to do is to create a set of NUnit tests to run against each file. Is there...
Many test frameworks on the .NET platform have this capability. In MbUnit, it's [RowTest] and [Row]. In xUnit.net, it's [TheoryViaXxx]. The principle is like...
... The only problem with this approach is you can't build up the list algorithmically. In my example, I would ideally want to build up the list by scanning a...
Ideally then you want to do something like: [RowTest] [Array(Delegate { // get all my data and return it as an array }] Then the delegate can build up the list...
xUnit.net supports doing this algorithmically: public class MyFixture { public static DataTable MyDataProp { get { DataTable result = new DataTable(); ...

I'm allowed to write what I want, but it's no one liner. I don't feel implanting a dependency interface just for this test would be a very good idea, so I'd...
