C#

I've started practicing basic C# fluency by taking small assessments on CodeWars. The first logistical question I've got - how to setup a test env for C# projects? My steps (based on many sources but primarily on MS dotnet Core guide) include:

Packages to install (with dotnet add package PackageName):

  • NUnit;
  • NUnit.Console;
  • NUnit.ConsoleRunner;
  • NUnit.Runners;

Folders/files setup:

  • start a project: dotnet new console -o "MyAppName";
  • initialize a solution cd MyAppName; dotnet new sln;
  • initialize a main project mkdir ProjectName; cd ProjectName; dotnet new classLib;
  • add the main project to the solution cd ..; dotnet sln add ./ProjectName/ProjectName.csproj;
  • initialize a test project mkdir ProjectName.Tests; cd ProjectName.Tests; dotnet new nunit;
  • add reference to the main project dotnet add reference ../ProjectName/ProjectName.csproj;
  • add the test project to the solution cd ..; dotnet sln add ./ProjectName.Tests/ProjectName.Tests.csproj;

VSCode extension - .NET Core Test Explorer

Retro about

What did we do well, that if we don’t discuss we might forget?

What did we learn?

What should we do differently next time?

What still puzzles us, or what do we need to learn more about?
