I have recently been experimenting (Again) with adding Unit Testing to several of the side projects I work on. And I have finally settled on the following tool combination.

• TestDriven.Net
• mbUnit
• CrusieControl.Net
• FxCop

I stayed away from NUnit because mbUnit appears to be so much more extensible. And the integration with TestDriven.Net is excellent.

XtUnit has recently come to my attention as well. Check this blog entry on Roy Osherove's blog for more info. This is the approach I hope to take in solving the rather messy issue of cleaning my database out after every test run.

Update: When I got home I reread Roy's post and here is a link to another of his posts that has even more useful info. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

I have been using CCNet for some time now to do my continuous integration builds, and thought it was time to begin adding tests and code coverage as well as FxCop analysis as several of the projects are within sight of a release window now.

More on that later...
