BizUnit vs Visual Studio Team Test

Question

With the release of BizTalk 2009 we can now use Visual Studio Team Edition 2008 to leverage some of the team test features. We can unit test maps, schemas, and pipelines ... but from what I can tell, that's about it.

How would you unit test orchestrations for instance?

Well I have been using BizUnit for years already and plan to continue to do so; What I like about BizUnit is that it is extensible and opensource

So ... Who can give me a few reasons why I should be ditching BizUnit in favor of Team Test in Visual Studio?

Answer 1

You can unit test your orchestration using Bizmock http://www.codeplex.com/bizmock I just looked at it briefly, didn't get a chance to use it on real time projects. But according to the documentation and sample its looks like perfect tool to unit test your orchestration.

Answer 2

I looked at the BizUnit page, and it seems to me that you can use BizUnit in conjunction with Visual Studio Team Test. BizUnit is a declarative testing framework that can augment VS Team Test's capabilities. BizUnit does not require VS Team Test, but VS Team Test can provide an excellent mechanism for driving BizUnit test cases.
