Dotnet In Memory Assembly Testing

Memory Test presents an easy way to test dotnet assemblies, without external processes, in memory. This is achieved by invoking XUnit or NUnit directly instead of using VsConsole or DotnetTest. Memory Test provides a simple to use abstraction while at the same time exposing underlying framework details for usability purposes.

Features

• XUnit Support
• NUnit Support

the support for test assembly versions depends on backwards compadibility of the test host, memory test uses the newest versions

Getting Started

• For an example check the console demo.

1. Instantiate a Test Host Runner

 var testHostRunner = new XUnitTestHostRunner("path to test assembly"); 
 var testHostRunner = new NUnitTestHostRunner("path to test assembly");  

2. Register Event Handlers

testHostRunner.TestStart += OnTestStart;
testHostRunner.TestEnd += OnTestEnd;
testHostRunner.TestSessionStart += OnTestSessionStart;
testHostRunner.TestSessionEnd += OnTestSessionEnd;

private static void OnTestSessionStart(object? sender, TestSessionStart e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Test session start [{e.StartTime:hh:mm:ss t z}]");
}

private static void OnTestSessionEnd(object? sender, TestSessionEnd e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(
        $"[{e.EndTime:hh:mm:ss t z}]: Passed: {e.Passed}, Failed: {e.FailedTests}, Skipped: {e.Skipped}, Run Result: {e.TestOutcome}");
}

private static void OnTestEnd(object? sender, TestEnd e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"[{e.TestOutcome}] Test Finish [{e.StartTime:hh:mm:ss t z}/{e.EndTime:hh:mm:ss t z}]: {e.TypeName} | {e.TestName}");
}

private static void OnTestStart(object? sender, TestStart e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Test case start: {e.TypeName} | {e.TestName}");
}

3. Run The Test Host

 testHostRunner.RunTestsAsync(CancellationToken.None).Wait(); // or use await

4. Done That's it. Enjoy testing!

Configuring

NUnit:

• Provide Settings
• Add NUnit Config File to the test assembly directory.

XUnit:

• Add XUnit Config File to the test assembly directory.
