Roy Osherove wrote a new tool, called Depender. It inspects the types within an assembly and tries to find possible testability problems and places where you can already use seams to inject your own implementation. If you’re not familiar with the concept of seams you might want to read Michael Feather’s book “Working Effectively with Legacy Code”.

You can extend Depender by writing your own dependency rules.

Charlie Poole released NUnit 2.4.7 today. This release eliminates some problems related to NUnit’s interaction with log4net and various bugs are also addressed. The release notes contain more detailed information.

RowTest Extension 1.2.2 is packaged in the NUnit extension assemblies. It’s the first time that an externally developed addin is included in a release of NUnit. You’ll have to change the namespace from NUnitExtension.RowTest to NUnit.Framework.Extensions if you want to port your unit tests from older versions of RowTest Extension.

You can download NUnit 2.4.7 from the NUnit site or from Sourceforge.

I released a new version of the RowTest Extension. I made following changes:

• null cannot be used as argument on .NET Framework 1.1. A new enum value SpecialValue.Null can be used instead. If the RowTest addin finds this value as argument the value will be translated to null.
• Fixed Bug: Common NUnit attributes like Category, Description etc. don’t work for RowTest methods.

You can download it from the RowTest Extension page.

I released a new version of the RowTest Extension. I made following changes:

• Added build for .NET Framework 1.1.
• Assemblies are now strongly named.
• Added ExceptionMessage property to RowAttribute. It can be used to specify the message of an expected exception.
• Added TestName property to RowAttribute. It is used to provide a custom name of the test. If TestName is null or empty the method name will be used.
• Fixed Bug: TestFixtureSetUp and TestFixtureTearDown are not called on the RowTest test suite (thanks to Wayne Brantley for reporting the bug and special thanks to Jamie Cansdale for providing a fix
• Fixed Bug: When a TestFixture contains both RowTests and normal unit tests the row tests are not alphabetically ordered.
