Gallio v3.0 Alpha 3 Released - Automation Platform for Unit Test Frameworks


Gallio v3.0 Alpha 3 was released.

Per the Gallio website:

"The Gallio Automation Platform is an open, extensible, and neutral system for .NET that provides a common object model, runtime services and tools (such as test runners) that may be leveraged by any number of test frameworks."

Some cool new features in Gallio v3.0 Alpha 3 as mentioned by Jeff:

  • Annontations
  • Report Enhancements
  • Icarus Test Execution Log
  • Test Assembly Configuration Files
  • MSTest Adapter
  • Visual Studio Team System Integration (Experimental)
  • Test Runner Extensions
  • Parameterized Test Enhancements
    • A basic "Row"-test.
    • A generic "Type"-test.
    • A combinatorial test.
    • A pairwise test.
    • A CSV data source.
    • Automatic data type conversions.

Apparently Gallio has the largest set of runners of any unit test framework to date.

  • GUI (Icarus)
  • Console (Echo)
  • TD.NET
  • R#
  • VSTS
  • CCNet
  • Powershell
  • MSBuild
  • NAnt

Interesting stuff. You can find the Gallio Project here.
