Unit Test Framework for .NET CF?

[Tsviatko Yovtchev]

Has anybody found or maybe even successfully used any? I spent some time
searching but I could not find anything...

As long as there are no GUI elements, or a common GUI that both CF and the
full framework support, then it should work on both desktop and PPC devices.

Maybe take a look at NUnit but create a CF gui for it instead of using the
full blown GUI?

The code that performs the unit testing (reflection) is supported in both
environments so that should not cause any problems.

The other thing to keep in mind is where are you wanting to actually perform
the tests? On the PPC device itself or on the development box? I am not sure
what benefit you would get running it on the PPC device unless you are using
PPC specific code?

Ideally you want to run the unit tests on the device so you can run against
the CF CLR (e.g. different exceptions can be thrown for the same failures).

Another option is to grab the source for CFNUnitBridge
http://cfnunitbridge.tigris.org/ and tweak it (i.e. make it work better
than it does)

FWIW, CF support is on the NUnit roadmap for v2.6 (whenever that will be
released)...
