NUnit 3.0 progress with NUnitlite adapter for Gallio

Asked by functional illiterate

Hey All,

Just poking around the internets for some info. I had first seen a small bit of info posted by CPoole regarding an NUnitLite Adapter for Gallio on a message board. My poking eventually led me to NUnit 3.0 architectural summary.

Typically for my desktop development, I use ReSharper in VS20xx to execute my tests(MbUnit) through the Gallio provider. I also write a fair amount of .NETCF code. I would like to use a similar process for those development efforts--the main exception being using Gallio to execute NUniteLite tests on devices. I simply wanted find out what progress, if any, has been made down this path? Dagnabit, some test, performance tests in particular, need to be run on devices. And I would like my development and testing process to be fairly consistent.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Also let me know if I could help in anyway... writing code, testing betas, etc.

Thanks,
fi

We do plan to have an NUnit adapter for Gallio, but I don't expect to work on it until after our own native runners. As for NUnitLite, there is a plan to have it run on a device under the control of NUnit, but that's not yet being worked on either.

The architectural overview for NUnit (http://www.nunit.org/wiki/doku.php?id=dev:specs:architectural_overview) calls both of these items out as separate goals - there is no plan for a Gallio adapter for NUnitLite. However, in theory anyway, a Gallio NUnit adapter should be able to run anything that NUnit itself can run - which would include NUnitLite tests.

Don't look for either of these until after the initial 3.0 release of the framework and both runners, which I don't expect before the fall.
