Project Description
An addin that allows you to run and debug NUnit projects within Visual Studio without setting a start program in the debug options or attaching manually to an external process.

How does it Work ?
After installing the plugin you'll find a new submenu under the tools menu and one NU image button for direct GUI:



It currently contains only three entries:

• NUnit Settings

This will open the settings dialog, which allows you to specify the location of the NUnit-GUI and NUnit-Console.

• Run Using NUnit GUI and NU Image Button

This will start the GUI version of NUnit and attaches the debugger to it.

• Run using Console

*This will start the console version of NUnit and attaches the debugger to it.

This will build the startup project and will automatically attach the debugger to the nunit-console.exe/GUI process from where you can debug the test case.

Why?

On project I'm currently working on we're using NUnit on the buildserver and MSTest/NUnit combo on the workstations. Since our test projects are MSTest projects we can't specify an alternate startup program to debug NUnit and even if we could it wouldn't help very much because every workstation installation differs in the location and version of NUnit. This addin will either locate NUnit automatically or a user can specify the location, which allows us to use both MSTest and NUnit within Visual Studio.
