NUnit macros for VS2005

I’ve been told the most current direction is to use the Unit Test framework, however I see no reason to convert or change my own methodologies since from what I’ve seen so far this new feature seemed a little buggy.  I’ve noticed some minor glitches in the way it works with source control bindings and just in general the NUnit just seems a little more simpler to get running.  I’ve sure Unit Test will get better and probably become the standard for TDD in time to come with VS.

In the meantime, I wrote a couple macros for VS2005 to help my testing workflow.  I like TestDriven.Net as an add-in to the VS IDE, I just don’t like constant checks to check on what needs to be rebuilt.  Generally, I know the dependencies myself and would like to go right into debugging oppose to these checks.  So I created a macro to automatically attach and debug to a current “nunit.exe” process.

Here’s the code below, I think a nice little enhancement would be a listbox asking which one to debug (assuming you have multiple projects currently with NUnit guis up).

Afterwards export the file to where you put all your macros and then you can add them to your IDE.

   1:  Imports System

   2:  Imports EnvDTE

   3:  Imports EnvDTE80

   4:  Imports System.Diagnostics

   5:   

   6:  Public Module AttachToNUnitGui

   7:      Sub AttachToNUnitGui()

   8:          Dim ps As EnvDTE.Processes = DTE.Debugger.LocalProcesses()

   9:          Dim process As EnvDTE.Process

  10:          Dim p As EnvDTE.Process

  11:          Dim found As Boolean = False

  12:   

  13:          For Each p In ps

  14:              If p.Name.EndsWith("nunit.exe") = True Then

  15:                  found = True

  16:                  process = p

  17:              End If

  18:          Next

  19:   

  20:   

  21:          If (found) Then

  22:              p.Attach()

  23:          Else

  24:              MsgBox("No nunit consoles running")

  25:          End If

  26:      End Sub

  27:  End Module
