Having recently gotten into test driven development I am using the Nunit test runner shipped as part of resharper. It has some downsides in terms of there is no shortcut to run tests and I have to go looking for the Nunit test runner to invoke it using the mouse. It has a nice GUI and shows the results as part of the IDE well.
What do other people use for running unit tests against .net projects? I have googled other apps including MBUnit and the Unit test App from Nunit.org and wondered what comes out on top for people.
Resharper does have some shortcomings…but it is possible to configure it to do what you want…
You can configure keyboard options in Visual Studio. Also, you can use the Unit Test Explorer in Resharper to find the tests you want and add them to the current session. I usually configure a shortcut (Alt+U) that runs all the tests in my current session…that way as I’m developing I can run all of the unit tests I need in seconds.

Are there shortcut keys for ReSharper's Unit Test Runner?
However, it would be nice if this didn’t have to be manually configured! (Yes! I’m looking at you Resharper Dev team! LOL)
