NUnit Template

One of the biggest problems to writing tests (first), is all the redundancy in setting up the test class.Unfortunately NUnit does not have a built in answer to this problem. So to that end, I created several template files to generate these test classes for me when when I do a Project>Add Class from within Visual Studio.Net. I am making my templates available here in hopes that it will help encourage you to write your tests first. Just unzip the download into your VC# install directory (Mine is located at “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC#”). Enjoy.

I have also created several other templates, of which I use predominantly: New Class, New Collection. If there is interest, I can post these as well.

Great stuff! I put together an MSI installer that puts these templates in the correct location, and includes modified templates for both 2002 and 2003. You can get it at http://www.lyon-smith.org/downloads.aspx#nunittemplates
