Classes

ApartmentAttribute

Marks a test as needing to be run in a particular threading apartment state. This will cause it to run in a separate thread if necessary.

Assert

The Assert class contains a collection of static methods that implement the most common assertions used in NUnit.

AssertBase

Base class for different Assert, containing helper functions

AssertionException

AuthorAttribute

Provides the author of a test or test fixture.

CancelAfterAttribute

Applies a timeout in milliseconds to a test. When applied to a method, the test's cancellation token is cancelled if the timeout is exceeded.

CategoryAttribute

Applies a category to a test

CombinatorialAttribute

Marks a test to use a combinatorial join of any argument data provided. Since this is the default, the attribute is optional.

DatapointSourceAttribute

Marks a field, property or method as providing a set of datapoints for use in executing any theories within the same fixture that require an argument of the provided type. The data source may provide an array of the required Type or an IEnumerable<T>. Synonymous with DatapointsAttribute.

DatapointsAttribute

Marks a field, property or method as providing a set of datapoints for use in executing any theories within the same fixture that require an argument of the provided Type. The data source may provide an array of the required Type or an IEnumerable<T>. Synonymous with DatapointSourceAttribute.

Does

Helper class with properties and methods that supply a number of constraints used in Asserts.

ExplicitAttribute

Marks an assembly, test fixture or test method such that it will only run if explicitly executed from the GUI, command line or included within a test filter. The test will not be run simply because an enclosing suite is run.

FixtureLifeCycleAttribute

Specify the life cycle of a Fixture

Has

Helper class with properties and methods that supply a number of constraints used in Asserts.

IgnoreAttribute

Marks an assembly, test fixture or test method as being ignored. Ignored tests result in a warning message when the tests are run.

IgnoreException

Thrown when an assertion failed.

IncludeExcludeAttribute

Abstract base for attributes that are used to include tests in the test run based on environmental settings.

InconclusiveException

Thrown when a test executes inconclusively.

Is

Helper class with properties and methods that supply a number of constraints used in Asserts.

Iz

The Iz class is a synonym for Is intended for use in VB, which regards Is as a keyword.

LevelOfParallelismAttribute

Sets the number of worker threads that may be allocated by the framework for running tests.

MaxTimeAttribute

Specifies the maximum time (in milliseconds) for a test case to succeed.

MultipleAssertException

Thrown when an assertion failed.

NUnitAttribute

Abstract base class for all custom attributes defined by NUnit.

NonParallelizableAttribute

Marks tests that should NOT be run in parallel.

OneTimeSetUpAttribute

Identifies a method that is called once to perform setup before any child tests are run.

OneTimeTearDownAttribute

Identifies a method to be called once after all the child tests have run. The method is guaranteed to be called, even if an exception is thrown.

OrderAttribute

Defines the order that the test will run in

PairwiseAttribute

Marks a test as using a pairwise join of any supplied argument data. Arguments will be combined in such a way that all possible pairs of arguments are used.

ParallelizableAttribute

Marks a test assembly, fixture or method that may be run in parallel.

PlatformAttribute

Marks an assembly, test fixture or test method as applying to a specific platform.

PropertyAttribute

Attaches information to a test assembly, fixture or method as a name/value pair.

RandomAttribute

Supplies a set of random values to a single parameter of a parameterized test.

RangeAttribute

Supplies a range of values to an individual parameter of a parameterized test.

RepeatAttribute

Specifies that a test should be run multiple times.

RepeatAttribute.RepeatedTestCommand

The test command for the RepeatAttribute

RequiresThreadAttribute

Marks a test that must run on a separate thread.

ResultStateException

Abstract base for Exceptions that terminate a test and provide a ResultState.

RetryAttribute

Specifies that a test method should be rerun on failure up to the specified maximum number of times.

RetryAttribute.RetryCommand

The test command for the RetryAttribute

SequentialAttribute

Marks a test to use a sequential join of any provided argument data. Arguments will be combined into test cases, taking the next value of each argument until all are used.

SetCultureAttribute

Sets the current Culture on an assembly, test fixture or test method for the duration of a test. The culture remains set until the test or fixture completes and is then reset to its original value.

SetUICultureAttribute

Sets the current UI Culture on an assembly, test fixture or test method for the duration of a test. The UI culture remains set until the test or fixture completes and is then reset to its original value.

SetUpAttribute

Identifies a method to be called immediately before each test is run.

SetUpFixtureAttribute

Identifies a class as containing OneTimeSetUpAttribute or OneTimeTearDownAttribute methods for all the test fixtures under a given namespace.

SingleThreadedAttribute

Marks a test fixture as requiring all child tests to be run on the same thread as the OneTimeSetUp and OneTimeTearDown. A flag in the TestExecutionContext is set forcing all child tests to be run sequentially on the current thread. Any ParallelScope setting is ignored.

SuccessException

Thrown when an assertion failed.

TearDownAttribute

Identifies a method to be called immediately after each test is run. The method is guaranteed to be called, even if an exception is thrown.

TestActionAttribute

Abstract attribute providing actions to execute before and after tests.

TestAssemblyDirectoryResolveAttribute

Marks a test assembly as needing a special assembly resolution hook that will explicitly search the test assembly's directory for dependent assemblies. This works around a conflict between mixed-mode assembly initialization and tests running in their own AppDomain in some cases.

TestAttribute

Marks the method as callable from the NUnit test runner.

TestCaseAttribute

Marks a method as a parameterized test suite and provides arguments for each test case.

TestCaseData

The TestCaseData class represents a set of arguments and other parameter info to be used for a parameterized test case. It is derived from TestCaseParameters and adds a fluent syntax for use in initializing the test case.

TestContext.TestAdapter

TestAdapter adapts a Test for consumption by the user test code.

TestFixtureAttribute

Marks the class as a TestFixture.

TestFixtureData

The TestFixtureData class represents a set of arguments and other parameter info to be used for a parameterized fixture. It is derived from TestFixtureParameters and adds a fluent syntax for use in initializing the fixture.

TheoryAttribute

Adding this attribute to a method within a TestFixtureAttribute class makes the method callable from the NUnit test runner. There is a property called Description which is optional which you can provide a more detailed test description. This class cannot be inherited.

Throws

Helper class with properties and methods that supply constraints that operate on exceptions.

TimeoutAttribute

Applies a timeout in milliseconds to a test. When applied to a method, the test is cancelled if the timeout is exceeded. When applied to a class or assembly, the default timeout is set for all contained test methods.
