Question

just installed Silverlight Tools All with nuget. I was hoping to find the Microsoft.Silverlight.Testing namespace as per some of the online documentation / blogs I’ve been reading? Am I looking in the right place?

http://nuget.org/List/Packages/SilverlightToolkit-All

… hoping to rig up either AgUnit (Ag as in the chemistry periodic table symbol for Silver) http://agunit.codeplex.com/releases/view/70609, or perhaps Resharper.

Humour: did a rainman, but I selected the “all” version. So, I want all of it. Why am I not getting all of it? Maybe I should download it again. Was that definitely the only “all” thing I could click on? Grr.

Answer 1

I managed to get hold of Jeff Wilcox (the author). He said, ‘it isn’t packaged with the toolkit, it’s separate. I believe some community folks packaged it up but i haven’t released it on nuget unfortunately, sorry!’

No problem. Well thanks Jeff for making it available in the first place. What’s an extra hoop to jump through to a developer anyway. That’ll teach me for making too many assumptions ;-).

previous update

went to [silverlight.codeplex.com] http://silverlight.codeplex.com/SourceControl/list/changesets and downloaded the latest source code. I discovered that Jeff Wilcox is still updating the testing .dll (last change back in Feb).

So I’m digging through the source code. Took a while to find unit.testing.csproj under .\SLToolKit\Silverlight4\Infrastructure

Found that there’s a dependency on Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTesting.Silverlight

I’m guessing that this .dll is part of any of the Visual Studios greater than professional. Am I wrong?

Even though the sourcecode is kept in the SilverlightToolkit, the Microsoft.Silverlight.Testing.dll to my knowledge isn’t shipped with any of the NuGet downloads. I wonder why? Getting closer at least.

Giving up on where the .dll comes from for now (still curious though), and am taking the versions from .\Silverlight4\Source\Binaries that came with the source code instead.

Awesome: Resharper picked it right up with those little circle things over on the left margin.

Did I just answer my own question?

using System;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;

namespace a_namespace
{
    [TestClass]
    public class Class1
    {
        [TestMethod]
        public void test()
        {
            Console.WriteLine("test");
        }

    }
}
