As far as I can tell, PostItAttribute does nothing itself and is
unreferenced.  It's apparently for attaching messages like TODOs to tests
but those messages are not presented anywhere.  It has been omitted from v3.

In v3 you can use attributes like [Description] and [Metadata] not to
mention plain old XML documentation comments to embed extra metadata to be
associated with a test in the report.


NamespaceProviderAttribute seems to be related to MbUnit v2 TypeFixture.  I
imagine its purpose was to recursively build a tree of types within a
namespace.  This entire abstraction has been superceded in MbUnit v3 by
parameterized (and generic) test fixtures.  At present we don't have the
equivalent of a NamespaceProvider but it would be easy for someone to use
the [Factory] attribute to achieve the same objective.


ReadAttribute and WriteAttribute are a complete mystery to me.  They might
have been part of an idea to tag test methods with external side-effects.


Anyways, ask Peli for more.

Jeff.

Subject: MbUnit Has anyone used these attribute classes?


Likewise, has anyone used the PostItAttribute class to tag their fixtures,
test or properties at all?
If so, how did you manage to get the notes to appear in a report or in the
GUI \ Console runners?

Thanks, Dan
