NUnit with Rowtest extension

Hello

Resharper doesn't recognize the rowtest extension with NUnit. Is there a workaround to this?

I do miss the feature too, because we do lot of data-driven testing.

I also really want to see this supported. The ReSharper test runner isn't much use if it doesn't pick up half of your tests.

I'm after this feature to. i've just given up using 4.1 which i paid the money for as it didnt support SetUpFixture in a different file. i now use the nightly build of the beta version 4.5.  Any updates on rowtest since the last post here?

Even better would be a ReSharper that didn't care what version of NUnit was being used (within reason), and would just use the one that the user has installed on hir machine.

Hello,

R# can't use the NUnit implementation for running its tests due to the licensing
reasons, that's why it can run only as much as it knows with its own implementation
and it is not possible to use the locally-installed NUnit version.

As far as I know there's a workaround, the Gallio.org project has a R# plugin
that adds multiple unit testing engines to R#, including full support for
NUnit.

I am not a lawyer, and you certainly aren't paying me to be one, but recent discussions on the NUnit-discuss list on Google Groups suggest that this may not be entirely accurate.  Including the NUnit source code itself is certainly a licensing no-no in this case, but developing code that runs either the executable or late binds to the NUnit libraries, if preent, may not be a violation.

Your product, and your call, obviously, and because of the way I operate, not really a big deal or an inconvenience for me one way or the other.  Just a suggestion.

What do I need to do in order to let Gallio execute my Tests? Just
unselect NUnit from the Unit-Testing Frameworks in the R# options?

Here's the NUnit licence itself, pertinent sections bolded:

How about move the NUnit support code into a separate plugin and open source it? Then you don't even need to mention NUnit in production documentation. I believe that's how TD.Net doesn't it, the driver for NUnit is hosted on sourceforge but TD.Net is a commercial product.
