<h2>Configuration Files</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>NUnit uses configuration files for the test runner executable – either nunit-console.exe or
|
||
nunitgui.exe – as well as for the tests being run. Only settings that pertain to NUnit itself should be in
|
||
the nunit-console.exe.config and nunit-gui.exe.config, while those that pertain to your own
|
||
application and tests should be in a separate configuration file.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>NUnit Configuration Files</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>One main purpose of the nunit-console and nunit-gui config files is to allow
|
||
NUnit to run with various versions of the .NET framework. NUnit is built using
|
||
versions 1.1 and 2.0 of the framework. The two builds are provided as separate
|
||
downloads and either build can be made to run against other versions of the CLR.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>As delivered, the <startup> section of each config file is commented out,
|
||
causing NUnit to run with the version of .NET used to build it. If you uncomment
|
||
the <startup> section, the entries there control the order in which alternate
|
||
framework versions are selected.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>Test Configuration File</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>When a configuration file is used to provide settings or to control the environment in which a test
|
||
is run, specific naming conventions must be followed.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If a single assembly is being loaded, then the configuration file is given the name of the assembly
|
||
file with the config extension. For example, the configuration file used to run nunit.tests.dll must
|
||
be named nunit.tests.dll.config and located in the same directory as the dll.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If an NUnit project is being loaded into a single AppDomain, the configuration file uses the
|
||
name of the project file with the extension <i>changed</i> to config. For example, the project
|
||
AllTests.nunit would require a configuration file named AllTests.config, located in the same
|
||
directory as AllTests.nunit. The same rule is followed when loading Visual Studio projects or solutions.</p>
|
||
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<p><b>Note:</b> The above only applies if a single AppDomain is being used. If an NUnit
|
||
project is loaded using a separate AppDomain for each assembly, then the individual
|
||
configuration files for each of the assemblies are used.
|
||
</blockquote>
|
||
|
||
<p>Generally, you should be able to simply copy your application config file and rename it as
|
||
described above.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>In versions of NUnit prior to 2.6, it was possible to change the behavior of
|
||
NUnit by adding special sections to the test config file. This feature is no
|
||
longer supported.
|
||
|
||
<p>The following recommendations are provided in the case of each of the settings
|
||
that are no longer available:
|
||
|
||
<h4>OldStyleTestCases</h4>
|
||
<p>NUnit no longer recognizes test methods without attributes.Use <b>TestAttribute</b>.
|
||
|
||
<h4>ApartmentState</h4>
|
||
<p>We recommend the use of <b>RequiresSTAAttribute</b> or <b>RequiresMTAAttribute</b>
|
||
on those test cases, test fixtures or setup fixtures that require a particular apartment.
|
||
As a temporary measure, the nunit-console <b>-apartment</b> option may be used.
|
||
|
||
<h4>ThreadPriority</h4>
|
||
<p>This is no longer supported.
|
||
|
||
<h4>DefaultLogThreshold</h4>
|
||
<p>This is now controlled by a setting in the NUnit Gui runner.
