ITestBuilder Interface
This interface is used by attributes that know how to build one or more parameterized TestMethod instances from a
MethodInfo. ITestMethodBuilder is defined as follows:
public interface ITestBuilder
{
IEnumerable<TestMethod> BuildFrom(IMethodInfo method, Test suite);
}
IMethodInfo is an NUnit internal class used to wrap a MethodInfo. See the source
code for more info.
The suite argument is the test suite that contains the method in question.
A custom attribute implementing this interface should examine the IMethodInfo and return as many TestMethod instances
as it is able to construct, using the parameters available to it. Some attributes will only return a single test, just
as TestCaseAttribute does. Others, working like TheoryAttribute may return multiple tests. If no data is available
to create tests, an empty collection should be returned.
If the returned tests are standard NUnit TestMethods, the helper class NUnitTestCaseBuilder may be used to create
them.
The following NUnit attributes currently implement ITestBuilder:
