    Extensible: Has some really good extension support. There are libs that provide some very interesting ways to use xunit, such as Xunit.Gherkin.Quick, xunit-spec, xunit-bdd, CoreBDD, and many others

What are some alternatives?

When comparing Shouldly and CoreBDD you can also consider the following projects:

Fluent Assertions - A very extensive set of extension methods that allow you to more naturally specify the expected outcome of a TDD or BDD-style unit tests. Targets .NET Framework 4.7, as well as .NET Core 2.1, .NET Core 3.0, .NET 6, .NET Standard 2.0 and 2.1. Supports the unit test frameworks MSTest2, NUnit3, XUnit2, MSpec, and NSpec3.

ArchUnitNET - A C# architecture test library to specify and assert architecture rules in C# for automated testing.

xUnit - xUnit.net is a free, open source, community-focused unit testing tool for .NET.

xBehave.net - ✖ An xUnit.net extension for describing each step in a test with natural language.

NUnit - NUnit Framework

GenFu - GenFu is a library you can use to generate realistic test data. It is composed of several property fillers that can populate commonly named properties through reflection using an internal database of values or randomly created data. You can override any of the fillers, give GenFu hints on how to fill them.

should - Should Assertion Library

NSubstitute - A friendly substitute for .NET mocking libraries.

Moq - Repo for managing Moq 4.x [Moved to: https://github.com/moq/moq]

NBomber - Modern and flexible load testing framework for Pull and Push scenarios, designed to test any system regardless a protocol (HTTP/WebSockets/AMQP etc) or a semantic model (Pull/Push).

NFluent - Smooth your .NET TDD experience with NFluent! NFluent is an ergonomic assertion library which aims to fluent your .NET TDD experience (based on simple Check.That() assertion statements). NFluent aims your tests to be fluent to write (with a super-duper-happy 'dot' auto-completion experience), fluent to read (i.e. as close as possible to plain English expression), but also fluent to troubleshoot, in a less-error-prone way comparing to the classical .NET test frameworks. NFluent is also directly inspired by the awesome Java FEST Fluent assertion/reflection library (http://fest.easytesting.org/)
