</ul>
<h3>NUnit 2.6 Release Candidate - Version 2.6.0.12035 - February 4, 2012</h3>
<h4>General</h4>
<ul>
<li>The Windows installer is now built using WiX 3.5, upgraded from 2.0.
</ul>
<h4>Framework</h4>
<ul>
<li>The API used to create <b>Action Attributes</b> has been changed from the
earlier beta releases. See the docs for more info.
<li>Visual Basic users may now use <b>Assert.ByVal</b> rather than <b>Assert.That()</b>
to avoid errors when the first argument is a property with a non-public setter.
<li>PlatformAttribute now supports arguments 'Windows8' and 'Windows2012Server'.
</ul>
<h4>Bug Fixes</h4>
<ul>
<li>498659 Registry entries and shortcuts remain after install
<li>498690 Assert.That() doesn't like properties with scoped setters
<li>638289 Install uses CURRENT_USER instead of LOCAL_MACHINE for AssemblyFoldersEx

<li>922455 Add Support for Windows 8 and Windows 2012 Server to PlatformAttribute
<li>924504 NUnit project files should have an Edit command association with the project editor
</ul>
<h3>NUnit 2.6 Beta 4 - Version 2.6.0.12017 - January 17, 2012</h3>
<h4>General</h4>
<ul>
<li>NUnit no longer stores settings in the test configuration file, as it
did in earlier versions. Specifically, we no longer recognize or support
OldStyleTestCases, ApartmentState, ThreadPriority or DefaultLogThreshold
in the configuration file. Further details on each of these features are
included in the appropriate sections below.
<li>The TestRunner interface has been modified. Applications using this
interface will need to be modified but general users are not effected.
<li>The build now uses the NAnt 0.91 final release.
</ul>
<h4>Framework</h4>
<ul>
<li>User-defined equality comparers specified with the <b>Using</b> syntax
element may now be used with arrays and dictionaries. Essentially, this
means that there are no longer any restrictions on the Types for which a
user-defined equality comparer may be specified.
<li>So-called "old-style" tests, identified by having a name beginning with
"Test" are no longer supported in NUnit 2.6.
<li>Setting a ThreadPriority for the test runner thread is no longer supported
under NUnit 2.6.
</ul>
<h4>Console</h4>
<ul>
<li>The following new command-line options are provided:
<ul>
<li><b>-stoponerror</b> causes execution of the test run to terminate
immediately on the first test failure or error.
<li><b>-apartment</b> is used to specify the ApartmentState (STA or MTA)
of the test runner thread. Since the default is MTA, the option is
only needed to force execution in the Single Threaded Apartment.
</ul>
</ul>
<h4>Gui</h4>
<ul>
<li>A number of new settings are available using the <b>Settings Dialog</b>:
<ul>
<li>The <b>Tree Display</b> page allows the user to select alternate image sets for
use in the test tree. Additional user-provided image sets may be added if desired.
<li>The <b>Text Output</b> page allows setting the threshold for capture and display
of log4net output (previously controlled by the test config file).
</ul>
<li>By default, test Cases under a Theory that fail an assumption are no longer shown in the tree.
A context menu item has been added to allow the user to view them.
<li>The properties dialog has been redesigned to be more compact and readable.
<li>The context menu for the test tree has been simplified.
</ul>
<h4>Bug Fixes</h4>
<ul>
<li>605034 Log4net not working with NUnit
<li>708173 NUnit's logic for comparing arrays - use Comparer<T[]> if it is provided
<li>719184 Platformdependency in src/ClientUtilities/util/Services/DomainManager.cs:40
<li>761579 Tests using log4net run very slowly
<li>848713 Feature request: Add switch for console to break on any test case error
<li>882192 Ignored test icon should be more prominent
<li>885173 Tests are still executed after cancellation by user
<li>896615 Tests can't be run in existing AppDomain
<li>897289 Is.Empty constraint has unclear failure message
<li>899178 Wrong failure message for parameterized tests that expect exceptions
<li>902305 Gui should not normally display Inconclusive test cases for a Theory
<li>902343 Gui 'Hide Tests' function no longer works
<li>903078 DomainUsage.None setting crashes nunit-gui
<li>903080 Test tree context menu needs to be simplified
<li>904841 After exiting for timeout the teardown method is not executed
<li>907270 Gui enables run when the assembly specified on the command line is not found
<li>908829 TestCase attribute does not play well with variadic test functions
<li>910218 NUnit should add a trailing separator to the ApplicationBase
<li>912955 Project files missing in source code package
</ul>
<h3>NUnit 2.6 Beta 3 - Version 2.6.0.11340 - December 6, 2011</h3>
<h4>Framework</h4>
<ul>
<li>The Constraint syntax now supports <b>Is.Positive</b>, which is interpreted
as greater than zero, and <b>Is.Negative</b>, which is interpreted as less than zero.
</ul>
<h4>Bug Fixes</h4>
<ul>
<li>892844 Not using Mono 4.0 profile under Windows
<li>892845 "Mono" is not clearly shown in About box or Test Assemblies dialog
<li>892847 Gui offers to load assemblies under a lower CLR version
<li>893919 DelayedConstraint fails polling properties on references which are initially null
<li>893991 When working directory contains # sign, it is truncated
<li>898192 Feature Request: Is.Negative, Is.Positive
<li>898256 IEnumerable<T> for Datapoints doesn't work
<li>898850 NUnit 2.6 beta 2 crashes on assemblies without tests
</ul>
<h3>NUnit 2.6 Beta 2 - Version 2.6.0.11324 - November 20, 2011</h3>
<h4>General</h4>
<ul>
<li>NUnit's executables now use config files that allow smoother running
of mixed assemblies built for .NET 2.0 under .NET 4.0.
<li>When opening Visual Studio formatted solutions, NUnit now uses the
solution configuration by default, resulting in changed behavior from
previous releases. The Settings Dialog may be used to revert NUnit to
the earlier behavior, which ignored solution configurations.
<li>Changing the URL to be used for NUnit help through the config file
is no longer supported.
</ul>
<h4>Framework</h4>
<ul>
<li><b>TestCaseAttribute</b> now accepts <b>Explicit</b> and <b>Reason</b>
named parameters.
<li><b>TestCaseSourceAttribute</b> now accepts a <b>Category</b> named parameter.
<li><b>TestCaseData</b> now supports marking individual test cases as <b>Explicit</b>.
<li><b>EqualConstraint</b> now recognizes and uses <b>IEquatable<T></b> if
it is implemented on either the actual or the expected value. The interface
is used in preference to any override of <b>Object.Equals()</b>, so long as
the other argument is of Type T. Note that this applies to all equality tests
performed by NUnit.
<li>When <b>Assert.Throws()</b> fails due to an exception of the wrong Type being
thrown, the error message now includes the Message and Stack Trace from the
exception.
<li>The constraint syntax now supports <b>Has.Exactly(n)...</b> in place of
<b>Has.Some...</b> in order to allow tests over collections that must
be satisfied a specific number of times.
<li>The <b>Using(...)</b> syntactic element may now be repeated multiple
times in an expression, so long as each comparer applies to a different
Type. NUnit will use the appropriate comparer, depending on the Type
of the arguments. Among other things, this allows overriding the default
NUnit comparison of collections.
<li>Documentation is provided for the previously undocumented <b>TestContext</b>.
A new property <b>TestContext.WorkDirectory</b> allows tests to access the
name of a directory to be used for file output. This directory may be
specified by use of the <b>/work</b> option of <b>nunit-console</b>.
</ul>
<h4>Gui</h4>
<ul>
<li>The test reload functionality in the Gui has been rewritten and simplified so that
the same logic is used for all cases where the visual state of the tree is to be
recovered. Test results are now found even if changes to the assembly have resulted
in the assignment of new ids to the tests.
<li>The Gui now displays invalid tests in red immediately upon load, without waiting
for the user to run them. Tests marked with the <b>IgnoreAttribute</b> are displayed
in yellow immediately as well.
<li>The directory containing the log files may be opened directly from the Gui by
use of a new item on the <b>Tools</b> menu.
<li>Test summary results are truncated when the window size is too small. The full
summary is displayed when hovering over the field.
<li>A number of new settings are available using the <b>Settings Dialog</b>:
<ul>
<li>The <b>Project Editor</b> page allows the user to select whether the NUnit
<b>Project Editor</b> or another external program will be used when editing
the settings file.
<li>The <b>Runtime Selection</b> page allows enabling or disabling automatic
detection of the target runtime for each test assembly.
<li>The <b>Advanced Loader Settings</b> page now allows specifying the argument to use
in calling SetPrincipalPolicy for each test AppDomain.
<li>The <b>Visual Studio</b> page now includes a setting that enables or disables
the use of solution configs when loading Visual Studio solution files.
<li>The <b>Internal Trace</b> page now shows the directory path to which log files
will be saved.
</ul>
<li>The location of the settings dialog under the Windows AppData directory has been
changed from Roaming to Local. Users will need to reset their preferences in some cases.
</ul>
<h4>Bug Fixes</h4>

</ul>
<h3>NUnit 2.6 Beta 1 - Version 2.6.0.11240 - August 28, 2011</h3>
<h4>General</h4>
<ul>
<li>NUnit is now built using .NET 3.5. All NUnit assemblies and most tests
target .NET 2.0 but the full set of tests requires 3.5 to execute.
<li>The build script now supports building from source under .NET 4.0.
The script selects either .NET 3.5 or .NET 4.0 to perform the build,
depending on what is available.
<li>NAnt 0.91 alpha2 release is now used for building on Windows. The 0.90
release is still used on Linux.
<li>Support for .NET 1.0 / 1.1 is no longer included in the main distribution
for NUnit but is provided as a separate package.
<li>NUnit Mocks is now deprecated. All classes are now marked as obsolete.
<li>NUnit now uses the NSubstitute mock framework its own tests. A copy of the
NSubstitute dll is included in the distribution.
</ul>
<h4>Framework</h4>
<ul>
<li>NUnit now supports composable <b>Action Attributes</b>, which allow the
test developer to put reusable test actions into attributes and attach
these actions to suites, tests, and test cases. The actions can run
arbitrary code before and after suites, tests, and test cases execute.
It enables the test developer to build smaller reusable actions and to
compose them in unique ways for each suite, test, or test case.
<p><p><b>Note:</b> This feature is experimental and details are likely
to change in the final release.
<li><b>PlatformAttribute</b> accepts "Net-3.0", "Net-3.5", "Mono-3.0" and "Mono-3.5" as arguments. Since these frameworks all
use the 2.0 runtime, the semantics of their use is slightly different
from other key words. The "3.5" arguments also include "3.0" and "2.0"
and the "3.0" arguments include "2.0" in their interpretation.
<li><b>TestFixtureAttribute</b> now accepts a <b>Category</b> named parameter,
allowing individual fixture instances to be included in or excluded from
a test run.
</ul>
<h4>Console</h4>
<ul>
<li>The .NET 1.1 build of nunit-console no longer supports the <b>-process</b>
or <b>-framework</b> option. There is no automatic runtime detection and
tests execute under same runtime as the console runner itself. If this
functionality is needed when running tests under .NET 1.1, use the standard
console runner to execute the tests in a separate process.
<li>The following new command-line options are provided:
<ul>
<li><b>-result</b> is a synonym for <b>-xml</b>, specifying the file to be used for output of the test results in XML form. The <b>-xml</b> option is still recognized but will be removed in a future release.
<li><b>-noresult</b> allows supressing the xml result output entirely.
<li><b>-work</b> is used to specify the directory to be used for output files. Any relative paths specified with the <b>-output</b>, <b>-err</b> or <b>-result</b> options are resolved using this directory as a base.
<li><b>-runlist</b> allows the user to specify a file that contains the names of the tests to be executed rather than listing them directly on the command line.
</ul>
</ul>
<h4>Gui</h4>
<ul>
<li>The <b>Project Editor</b> is now a separate program, which may be executed directly
or run through the Project | Edit dropdown menu of the NUnit GUI. The editor
now provides two main views of the project: a property-oriented view based
on the Project Editor that was built into earlier versions of the NUnit GUI
and an xml view, which allows simple editing of the .nunit file.
</ul>
<h4>PNUnit</h4>
<ul>
<li>The <b>PNUnit</b> code has been updated using the latest build from the developers
at Codice Software and additional examples are provided in the source.
</ul>
<h4>Bug Fixes</h4>
<ul>
<li>691129 Add Category parameter to TestFixture
<li>692180 Script should allow building for net-2.0 under 3.5 or 4.0
