SourceForge.net: Project Info - NUnitAsp Code Generator

SourceForge.net: Project Info - NUnitAsp Code Generator: “A tool to generate source code test classes for NUnitAsp from web pages (via a URL) or by analysing .aspx pages” The source code is now in its own SF project!

NUnitAsp Code Generation

Last Thursday I was out visiting the e-business team at Mawson Lakes campus. I was showing them how to use NUnit and NUnitAsp for automated unit testing. As I was setting up a test for NUnitAsp, I noticed how repetitive it was to:

1. Browse the web page
2. Find the control
3. View the source to see the control’s id.
4. Add a variable declaration to the test class.
5. Add a variable assignment/initialise to the SetUp method for the variable
6. Back to step 2

I wondered if this could be automated a bit to make it quicker to set up the test classes for NUnitAsp. Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, I joined the developer list for NUnitAsp, and asked the other subscribers if anyone had done this before. No one said they had, but a couple replied saying they’d be interested in the results. So I whipped up a first-effort that you can download here. It still needs a bit of cleaning up, and I’m thinking it might be useful to make it work as a Visual Studio AddIn too, but it does work ok.

While browsing this site about .NET section handlers, I noticed the nice layout for the source code samples. Clicking on the ? link took me to dp.SyntaxHighlighter: “dp.SyntaxHighlighter is a free JavaScript tool for source code syntax highlighting” I’ll have to figure out if it works with Blogger.
