Developer Testing and /Glover25 Sep 2007 12:16 pm
The brains that brought you NUnit have decided to create a new and improved testing framework dubbed xUnit.net. Their goal is to learn from the lessons of NUnit, thus creating a more usable framework (for example, they realized you don’t need to attribute a class if you’ve used an attribute on a method!).
Their website offers a nice comparison of xUnit.net versus NUnit, MBUnit, and MSTest that’s worth studying.
The question still remains though: will you drop NUnit, which is arguably the de-facto testing framework for the .NET platform to use xUnit.net?

i like the concepts, but until they can put the Syntax helpers in place, I’m staying with NUnit…
in other words I like this:
Assert.That(2 + 2, Is.EqualTo(4));
better than:
Assert.Equal(4, 2+2);
