Use file layout to group NUnit tests by Category

Hi Serge Aradj!

I am afraid I barely catch the idea you proposing.

How I understood the process for now:

1. Group tests by categories
2. Sort inside groups, by name, for example.

3. then sort all the categories (and uncategorized tests if any, coming first or last I do not care) ??

But you specify the order of categories in the layout constructor.. Do you mean to sort attribute groups in alphabetic eg order based on attribute/category value?

Is there a way to create a group dynamically based on an attribute ? 

Do you mean to automatically create a file-layout pattern with grouped by attribute objects?

Hi !

You understood my need quite well Alexander ! I would like to sort methods based not only on their own name but also on the value of one of their attributes.

For example, I would like this randomly sorted file

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void EndTask_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Succeeded")]

public void Succeed_SucceedATopLevelActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToSucceeded()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Fail_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Failed")]

public void Fail_FailAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToFailed()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Failed")]

public void Fail_FailATopLevelActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToFailed()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Progress_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Warning")]

public async Task Warn_WarnAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToWarning()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Succeed_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Succeeded")]

public async Task Succeed_SucceedAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToSucceeded()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Warn_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

To end up sorted by Category, then by method name, like so :

Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void EndTask_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Fail_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Progress_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Succeed_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set activity.CorrelationId")]

public void Warn_CorrelationIdIsInContext_ActivityGetsTheSameCorrelationId()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Failed")]

public void Fail_FailAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToFailed()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Failed")]

public void Fail_FailATopLevelActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToFailed()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Succeeded")]

public async Task Succeed_SucceedAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToSucceeded()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Succeeded")]

public void Succeed_SucceedATopLevelActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToSucceeded()

{...}

[Test]

[Category("Set status to Warning")]

public async Task Warn_WarnAMonitoredActivity_ShouldSetTheStatusToWarning()

{...}

Hi Serge Aradj!

Such functionality is indeed yet to implement in ReSharper.

In order to address the question, I have created a feature request in our tracker.

Please vote or left a comment to give this feature more chances to be added in upcoming releases. 

Thank you for the input, and have a nice day!

Hi Alexander, I just did :) !

Thank you for submitting my feature request !
