57The tests are contained in certain DLLs. At the time of writing, these DLLs
58have tests in them:
59
60OpenSim.Region.ScriptEngine.Common.Tests.dll
61OpenSim.Region.ScriptEngine.Shared.CodeTools.Tests.dll
62OpenSim.Region.ScriptEngine.Shared.Tests.dll
63OpenSim.Framework.Tests.dll OpenSim.Region.CoreModules.dll
64OpenSim.Region.Physics.OdePlugin.dll[2]
65
66The console command used to run the tests is `nunit-console` (or
67`nunit-console2` on some systems). This command takes a listing of DLLs to
68inspect for tests.
69
70Currently Bamboo's[3] build file (.nant/bamboo.build) lists only those DLLs
71for nunit-console to use. However it would be equally correct to simply pass
72in all DLLs in bin/; those without tests are just skipped.
73
74The nunit-console command generates a file TestResults.txt by default. This is
75an XML file containing a listing of all DLLs inspected, tests executed,
76successes, failures, etc. If nunit-console is passed in all DLLs in bin/, this
77file bloats with lots of entries like this:
78
79 <test-suite name="/home/mike/source/workspace/bin/OpenSim.Grid.Communications.OGS1.dll" success="True" time="0.000" asserts="0">
80 <results />
81 </test-suite>
82 <test-suite name="/home/mike/source/workspace/bin/OpenSim.Region.ClientStack.dll" success="True" time="0.000" asserts="0">
83 <results />
84 </test-suite>
85
86Therefore it makes more sense to me to specify the DLLs when running
87nunit-console.
88
89[2] Note that OpenSim.Region.Physics.OdePlugin.dll is in bin/Physics/ and
90needs to be first copied to bin/ before nunit-console is executed.
