In Visual Studio 2010 Pro, how can I easily convert a classic assembly to a ms unit test assembly ?
It there a flag to activate in the .csproj file ?
From the code editor window, right-click and choose Create Unit Tests from the right-click menu. The Create Unit Tests menu command is only available for C# code. To use this method with . NET Core or .
The main difference is the ability of MsTest to execute in parallel at the method level. Also, the tight integration of MsTest with Visual Studio provides advantages in both speed and robustness when compared to NUnit. As a result, I recommend MsTest.
The problem is that test projects are "marked" on the project file - you can convert a class library to Test project follow these four simple steps:
add the following line to the project
C#:
<Project> <PropertyGroup> <AssemblyName>....</AssemblyName> <!-- add this line below --> <ProjectTypeGuids>{3AC096D0-A1C2-E12C-1390-A8335801FDAB};{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}</ProjectTypeGuids> </PropertyGroup> </Project>
VB - <ProjectTypeGuids>{3AC096D0-A1C2-E12C-1390-A8335801FDAB};{F184B08F-C81C-45F6-A57F- 5ABD9991F28F}</ProjectTypeGuids>
Note that you'll need to manually add reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework.dll in order to be able to use test related attributes
Update: In the upcoming MSTest V2 this will not be nesessery as MSTest becomes a NuGet package which works just like NUnit/XUnit
