[android-devel] Android NUnitLite Runners

[John Miller]

Hello,


I've been investigating an issue for a support case that involves the NUnitLite Android runner that we ship (https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/tree/master/src/Xamarin.Android.NUnitLite). I believe the issue is similar to this (https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22606), but on Android. I've done some digging on this, and it seems to be an issue in the NUnitLite included in this source. While looking around, I ran across this repo too: https://github.com/nunit/nunit.xamarin.


I am curious if there are plans to combine efforts for these runners? The version of the runner/nunitlite in XA is old, and has bugs that have not been fixed in a while. The NUnit runners are updated, but are missing some features that the XA runner has (ability to execute specific tests in a suite), see:


https://github.com/nunit/nunit.xamarin/issues/29

https://github.com/nunit/nunit.xamarin/issues/14

Also, https://github.com/nunit/nunit.xamarin/issues/29#issuecomment-199826872


Is there any plan to combine this effort? If not, I am considering a PR for the nunit runners to address #29 to bring feature parity closer to what it's in XA. Fixing the bugs in XA's NUnitLite was non-trivial for me so far, but is also still an option. I'm looking for input on this and any suggestions on which to tackle (PR the Nunit runners or focus on PR for the XA repo).


Best,

John
