Steven Rockarts - MbUnit's AutoRunner Rocks

Sunday, September 30, 2007

I have been using MbUnit's AutoRunner a lot lately and it rocks. To use the AutoRunner add a new class to your test project named SelfTester with the following code:

public class SelfTester
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        using(AutoRunner runner = new AutoRunner())
        {
            runner.Load();
            runner.Run();
            runner.ReportToHtml();
        }
    }
}

Next right click on your test project and set it as the start up project. Change the output type to Console Application and the startup object to your SelfTester class:

Now hit F5 and your test results will appear in a nicely formatted html page. This works even if all your tests are written using NUnit as the framework. It does not however work with MSTest.

The MbUnit team should add a static method (TestMain) or something that wraps this code so you really have to write a single line only...
