Sweet! This makes life much easier than trying to manually set up the templates. This is a better solution to my <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/666941/how-do-i-add-nunit-as-a-test-framework-option-for-asp-net-mvc-to-visual-web-devel/805276">Stack Overflow question</a>.

I'd like to add that I needed to restart my machine after applying this in order for the dialog to appear.

@ Sam

Sam, was VS running while you installed? This might have affected the command to reset VS. If not, please let me know and I'll take a look on express(?) to see what might be going wrong.

Thanks,

Joe

Oh my god... I ran your script and now when I start Visual Studio it says "No templates can be found"... agh!

re: Updated NUnit Templates for ASP.Net MVC 1.0 RTM

womp — Tue, 12 May 2009 09:23:16 GMT

Okay... I managed to fix it by booting up a visual studio command prompt and typing "devenv /installvstemplates"... and now the NUnit MVC templates are available as well... so looks like success.

But what a scare.

@womp

Hi womp, can you please send me mail at joecar at microsoft dot com? I would really like to investigate what happened in your case. The script copies two templates, sets an mvc specific reg key, and then runs devenv /setup so I was surprised to hear about this and would like to find out more about what happened.

Thanks,

Joe

The installNUnit.cmd didn't work for me without some help.

The :express block makes the Test directories.

mkdir "%DevEnvDir%\ProjectTemplates\VisualBasic\Test"

mkdir "%DevEnvDir%\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Test"

The :vsts block doesn't make the Test directories. I'm running Visual Studio Standard Edition. The :vsts block was triggered, but there were no Test directories. I manually created the Test directories and then it worked.

@Jack,

Thanks for the catch. I'll take a look and see if I can create the test directories for STD as well as Express.

The installer doesn't work on Win 7 RC. When I try to merge NUnit64bit.reg to the registry, it creates "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\MVC\TestProjectTemplates\NUnit\C#" node (note: "Wow6432Node\Wow6432Node")

@t800t8,

I am not sure how that happened, here is the reg info, I'll try this out on Win7 x64 to see if I can find what the problem might be:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\MVC\TestProjectTemplates\NUnitDemo3\C#]

"Template"="MvcApplication.NUnit.Tests.zip"

"Path"="CSharp\\Test"

"TestFrameworkName"="NUnit"

"AdditionalInfo"="http://www.nunit.org/index.php?p=home"

"Package"="{DC519505-FBF8-48c7-AAA5-F27B0405F278}"

Error with Vista X64 and VS 2008 Express, looks like there is an issue what a path. This is what I get when I try to execute installNUnit.cmd (as Administrator):

c:\NUnitRTM>installNUnit.cmd

c:\NUnitRTM>setlocal

c:\NUnitRTM>Set CopyFrom=c:\NUnitRTM\

\Microsoft was unexpected at this time.

c:\NUnitRTM> Set DevEnvDir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\VWDExpress

I was running the installNUnit.cmd from the VS2005 command shell. THat makes it choose wrong DevEnvDir (i.e. it chooses VS2005 as the IDE rather than the VWD). Running the script from regular cmd prompt solved the problem.

Does this template is still valid with the ASP.NET MVC 1.0 release ?

No Errors Installing but no NUnit in VS Either

Michael — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 23:03:35 GMT

I am having no luck getting this installed on Windows XP and Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I downloaded and installed NUnit 2.5.1. Then I ran NUnit Test Template installer above. Then I rebooted, opened Visual Studio 2008, created a new MVC Project, and no unit test dialog appeared. No errors appeared during any installation.

Anyone have any ideas? It doesn't seem like it should be this hard.

re: Figured Out Installation Problem

Michael — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 23:42:24 GMT

Apparently, if you don't have a Test directory present in

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp and VisualBasic

...it won't properly copy the zip file (just creates a Test file with nothing in it and no extension).

I hope this saves someone else a lot of frustration.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for pointing this out. I just uploaded a fix for this issue so that the test directory will be created if it does not exist already. I was doing this for Express but now I do this for all skus. If anybody else has trouble with installing on the STD sku, feel free to ping me at joecar at microsoft dot com.

Installed this and I can make a test project, but it seems to have a faulty link to 'nunit.framework' (there is a yellow exclamation mark warning sign next to it). I have NUnit installed, but perhaps not in the directory expected by these templates? Where is it supposed to be?

So after some investigation, I appear to have fixed this. I had the newest version of NUnit downloaded, and searched for 'nunit' in the project definition, and found this:

I replaced this with an analogous nunit reference in a project in which I had set up the reference myself:

I had to replace the references in the template directory as well as the template cache directory (this was key). The question being is whether or not I have to change the reference again every time I upgrade nunit versions. Would changing the reference declaration to something like

work as well?
