I can never remember the various NUnit attributes I find useful (other than the basics like TestFixture, Test, SetUp, TearDown and ExpectedException) so here’s a quick aide-mémoire (NB: this is not a complete list by any means):
Attribute | Description |
CombinatorialAttribute | Used on a test to specify that NUnit should generate test cases for all possible combinations of the individual data items provided. |
ExplicitAttribute | Causes a test or test fixture to be ignored unless it is explicitly selected for running. |
RandomAttribute | Used to specify a set of random values to be provided for an individual parameter of a parameterized test method. |
RangeAttribute | Used to specify a range of values to be provided for an individual parameter of a parameterized test method. |
SequentialAttribute | used on a test to specify that NUnit should generate test cases by selecting individual data items provided for the parameters of the test, without generating additional combinations. |
TestCaseAttribute | Serves the dual purpose of marking a method with parameters as a test method and providing inline data to be used when invoking that method. |
TestCaseSourceAttribute | Used on a parameterized test method to identify the property, method or field that will provide the required arguments. |
ValuesAttribute | Used to specify a set of values to be provided for an individual parameter of a parameterized test method. |
