How to run NUnit v2.4.8 tests with NAnt 0.86 beta?

问题

I tried recently to use NAnt (beta 0.86.2962.0) to run some unit tests compiled with the last stable version of NUnit (v2.4.8) without any success.

The error I get is the following :

[nunit2] Assembly "C:\Dev\MySample\bin\tests\My.Sample.Tests.dll" contains no tests.

Of course, the assembly contains tests that I can run from any runner, like NUnit one, TestDriven or Resharper. I would like to use <nunit2> task, and not directly the <exec> one, but I'm wondering if it is still possible, even using app.config files to bind assembly versions.

回答1:

I can't remember why, but I gave up on using the <nunit2> task and I've been using the <exec> task and nunit-console.exe happily. If it helps, here's my test target that runs NUnit and FxCop. Note that it skips them if the executables aren't in the Windows path.

<target name="test" description="Run unit tests" depends="build">
  <property name="windows-path" value="${string::to-lower(environment::get-variable('PATH'))}"/>
  <property name="nunit-in-path"
      value="${string::contains(windows-path, 'nunit')}"/>
  <echo message="Tests skipped because no NUnit folder was found in the Windows path."
      unless="${nunit-in-path}"/>
  <exec program="nunit-console.exe" if="${nunit-in-path}">
      <arg file="../MyProject/MyProjectTest.nunit"/>
  </exec>
  <property name="fxcop-in-path"
      value="${string::contains(windows-path, 'fxcop')}"/>
  <echo message="FxCop skipped because no FxCop folder was found in the Windows path."
      unless="${fxcop-in-path}"/>
  <fxcop projectFile="../MyProject/MyProject.fxcop" directOutputToConsole="true" 
      failOnAnalysisError="true" if="${fxcop-in-path}"/>
</target>
