Our next version of Connector/Net will include support for Compact Framework 2.0. One thing that's been challenging is how to test our provider in this environment. We have a NUnit test suite that we use with the normal provider but so far I haven't found any good way to run it under the compact framework. I know about CFNUnitBridge but I needed something that could also work with compact framework 1.0.
So, I decided to write my own. After two days of hacking I now have an application that does just what I want. It loads my test suite and implements all the NUnit framework junk that I use. I gave it a reasonable UI similar to what is seen in NUnit's GUI runner. You can select a single test to run and have it run all the tests. It also keeps track of exception messages and stack traces per test failure. Here's a shot of it. Anyone wanting to check it out can find it in the sample applications that will be included with Connector/Net 5.1.
