xUnit.net release 1.5

Build #1479
Change set #42400

Important notes for Resharper users:

Resharper support has been moved to the xUnit.net Contrib project.

Important note for TestDriven.net users:

If you are having issues running xUnit.net tests in TestDriven.net, especially on 64-bit Windows, we strongly recommend you upgrade to TD.NET version 2.20 or later. It is also important to uninstall and reinstall TD.NET support using xunit.installer.exe.

This release adds the following new features:

• Better support for 64-bit machines, including forced 32-bit runners
• Introduced a new GUI runner, which allows:
  • Multiple assemblies
  • Filters on text, assembly, traits, and last run state
  • Project (.xunit) files
  • Multithreaded UI so that tests aren't slowed down by UI updates
  • Assemblies are not locked and are automatically reloaded so that you can continue to work on your tests in Visual Studio while leaving the GUI runner running
  • Automatically remembers UI window placement and recent assemblies/projects
• Additional MSBuild task which consumes project (.xunit) files
• Support for MVC 1.0 and MVC 2 Preview 1, including both C# and VB.NET
• A new test runner object model for runner authors (supporting multiple assemblies)
• IEnumerable/IEnumerable<T> support for Assert.Equal
• Better support for Assert.Throws for expressions which return values
• Support for installation-free running with TestDriven.net (2.23 or later)

This release fixes several issues, including:

• Added an output property named ExitCode to the MSBuild runner (0=success, -1=fail)
• Expected/actual messages are improved when values are the same but types don't match
• Fixed an issue where assemblies without config files run from MSBuild were using MSBuild.exe.config as their config file.
• Fixed several broken samples.
• Fixed an issue where long-running tests would be aborted in the console runner.
• Fixed an issue with CDATA handling in test results.

For a complete list of fixed issues, see the Issue Tracker.

This release includes:

• Core library (xunit.dll)
• Support for ASP.NET MVC 1.0 and 2.0 Preview 1
• Support for CruiseControl.net (see the wiki for more information)
• Support for TeamCity (see the wiki for more information)
• Version-resilient runner support (xunit.runner.utility.dll)
• Installer utility for runners and ASP.NET MVC (xunit.installer.exe)
• Runners:
  • Console runner (xunit.console.exe and xunit.console.x86.exe)
  • GUI runner (xunit.gui.exe and xunit.gui.x86.exe)
  • MSBuild runner (xunit.runner.msbuild.dll)
  • TestDriven.net 2.x runner (xunit.runner.tdnet.dll) see note above
• Extensions for .NET 2.0+ (xunit.extensions.dll):
  • Data theories using [Theory] with support for data from inline values, properties, Excel spreadsheets, SQL Server, and OLE DB data sources
  • [AssumeIdentity] extension
  • [AutoRollback] extension
  • [FreezeClock] extension
  • [Trace] extension
  • TestClass and Assertions base class for assertion extensibility

xUnit.net release 1.5 Beta

Build #1465
Change set #39037

Important notes for Resharper users:

Resharper support has been moved to the xUnit.net Contrib project.

Important note for TestDriven.net users:

If you are having issues running xUnit.net tests in TestDriven.net, especially on 64-bit Windows, we strongly recommend you upgrade to TD.NET version 2.20 or later. It is also important to uninstall and reinstall TD.NET support using xunit.installer.exe.

This release adds the following new features:

• Added a new MSBuild task (xunitproject) which consumes .xunit files
• Support launching .xunit files from Windows Explorer
• Added support for MVC 2 Preview 1
• Runners should show if they're running in 32- or 64-bit mode
• Finished the test object model, including wrappers around Test Project files
• Rearranged some of the menu items in the GUI to more clearly delineate assembly vs. project operations

This release fixes the following issues:

• When exeption is thrown in derived DataAttribute class, tests run infinitely
• Fixed an issue with the new 32-bit-only builds which were showing signing failures when run
• xUnit.net GUI runner: exception on shutdown
• xUnit Project Files Should Store Relative Paths
• Expected/Actual message could be better when types don't match
• Fixed an issue where quitting the GUI while minimized caused subsequent runs to happen off screen
• Fixed an issue where assemblies without config files run from MSBuild were using MSBuild.exe.config as their config file.
• Fixed several broken samples.

You may also want to consult the features and issues list from CTP 1 and CTP 2.
