    Next, you need to install a testing framework that will be used for performing unit testing in your project. Several testing frameworks are available depending on the programming language used to create an application. For example, JUnit is commonly used for Java apps, pytest for Python apps, NUnit for .NET apps, Jest for JavaScript apps, and so on. We’ll use the Jest framework for this tutorial since we are using JavaScript.
  • Setting up a simple testing project with C#
    7 projects | dev.to | 27 May 2023
    At this point you're going to see a familiar screen asking you to select a project. Here we're looking for a test project. By default, Visual Studio gives you access to 3 different testing frameworks based on your choice of project. These are MSTest, XUnit and NUnit. Ultimately, all 3 of these testing accomplish the same thing, and I've worked with all of them at various points in my career. The difference is mainly in exact syntax and documentation. Although, it's generally considered that MSTest is a little "older" than NUnit or XUnit, so I tend to see it less now. For the purposes of this demo, I'm going to go with NUnit:

  • Commemorating Charlie Poole's Contributions to the NUnit Project

    Has #NUnit helped you, your career, or your organization? We'd love for you to tell that story here, to celebrate Charlie: https://github.com/nunit/nunit/discussions/4283

    After over TWENTY years leading the NUnit project, Charlie is stepping back.

    Has NUnit helped you, your career, or your organization? We'd love to hear about it at https://github.com/nunit/nunit/discussions/4283.

    > To attempt to quantify Charlie’s contributions to NUnit is a daunting task. He was the lead of NUnit across at least 207 releases in 37 different repositories, authoring 4,898 commits across them. He participated in 2,990 issues, 1,305 PRs, and impacted 6,992,983 lines of code. And those are only the ones we can easily find; our numbers are sourced from after NUnit moved the project to GitHub in 2011, which means there are at least 9 additional years of work not quantified above.

    I think of Charlie as one of the ".NET OSS OGs". I'd love to see him celebrated.
