I'm using a 'InheritableCategoryAttribute', as below:
using System;
using NUnit.Framework;
namespace Apt.Lib.Product.Data.Tests
{
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Assembly | AttributeTargets.Class |
AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple = true, Inherited = true)]
public class InheritableCategoryAttribute : CategoryAttribute
{
public InheritableCategoryAttribute(string name) : base(name)
{
}
}
}
This attribute is applied to an abstract class, which provides some general
functionality needed by all of my test fixtures:
[TestFixture]
[InheritableCategory("MyCategory")]
public abstract class MyAbstractTests
What I would expect, is that any class extending MyAbstractTests should be
found in MyCategory. In practice, this is the case in the Resharper's unit
testing interface, but not in the NUnit GUI and Command line. As a result, I'm
having trouble using this in a CI environment with Hudson

Make CategoryAttribute inherited

Status in NUnit Test Framework: Triaged
Bug description:
The attribute Category (used for making tests as being in a particular
category) should be inherited. This would allow setting up an abstract base
class for a certain type of test, marking it as [Category("Whatever")], and
having NUnit recognize that every other test that inherits from that class is
also in category "Whatever".
As of 2.5.7.10213, CategoryAttribute is not inherited.
