我将在工作中开始一个新项目,并想进入单元测试。我们将使用Visual Studio 2008, c#和ASP。NET MVC之类的东西。我正在考虑使用NUnit或Visual Studio 2008的内置测试项目,但我也愿意研究其他建议。是一种系统比另一种更好,还是比另一种更容易使用/理解?
我希望让这个项目成为我们未来发展努力的“最佳实践”。

Daok列出了Visual Studio 2008测试项目的所有优点。下面是NUnit的优点。
NUnit has a mocking framework. NUnit can be run outside of the IDE. This can be useful if you want to run tests on a non-Microsoft build server, like CruiseControl.NET. NUnit has more versions coming out than visual studio. You don't have to wait years for a new version. And you don't have to install a new version of the IDE to get new features. There are extensions being developed for NUnit, like row-tests, etc. Visual Studio tests take a long time to start up for some reason. This is better in Visual Studio 2008, but it is still too slow for my taste. Quickly running a test to see if you didn't break something can take too long. NUnit with something like Testdriven.Net to run tests from the IDE is actually much faster. Especially when running single tests. According to Kjetil Klaussen, this is caused by the Visual Studio testrunner. Running MSTest tests in TestDriven.Net makes MSTest performance comparable to NUnit.

据我所知,目前。net有四个可用的单元测试框架:
NUnit 运行工具 MSTest xUnit
NUnit一直处于领先地位,但在过去一年左右,这种差距已经缩小。我自己还是更喜欢NUnit,特别是他们不久前添加了一个流畅的界面,这使得测试非常易读。
如果您刚刚开始进行单元测试,这可能没有太大区别。一旦你跟上了进度,你就能更好地判断哪个框架最适合你的需求。
我更喜欢使用MS的小测试框架,但现在我坚持使用NUnit。多发性硬化的问题通常是(对我来说)
必须维护的共享“测试”文件(无意义) 测试列表会与多个开发人员/ vcs产生冲突 糟糕的集成UI -令人困惑的设置,繁重的测试选择 没有好的外部流道
警告
如果我正在测试一个aspx站点,我肯定会使用MS的 如果我是独自开发,MS也可以 如果我的技能有限,不能配置NUnit:)
我发现编写我的测试并启动NUnitGUI或其他前端(testDriven的价格非常非常非常昂贵)要容易得多。使用命令行版本设置调试也非常简单。
首先我想纠正一个错误的说法:你可以使用命令行在Visual Studio之外运行MSTest。尽管一些CI工具,如TeamCity,对NUnit有更好的支持(可能会随着MSTest变得更流行而改变)。
在我目前的项目中,我们两者都使用,唯一的大区别是,我们发现MSTest总是作为32位运行,而NUnit运行为32位或64位测试,这只在你的代码使用32/64位依赖的本机代码时才重要。

Visual Studio 2008内置单元测试框架的优点/变化:
The 2008 version now is available in professional editions (before it required expensive versions of Visual Studio, and this is just for developer unit testing) that left a lot of developers with the only choice of open/external testing frameworks. Built-in API supported by a single company. Use the same tools to to run and create tests (you may run them using the command line also MSTest). Simple design (granted without a mock framework, but this is a great starting point for many programmers). Long term support granted (I still remember what happened to NDoc, and I don't want to commit to a testing framework that might not be supported in five years, but I still consider NUnit a great framework). If using Team Foundation Server as your backend, you can create work items or bugs with the failed test data in a simple fashion.
