SPAM-LOW: RE: [Mono-devel-list] NUnit Roadmap

[Charlie Poole]

Hi Sebastien,

It sounds like we would want a special kind of fixture. I think we'd
leave
that for someone to implement as an extension. It would be a good test
of the extensibility mechanism and it might lead us to add some further
features to it.

On a technical note... it wouldn't be a test runner, but the suite class
itself that would need to implement the multi-threaded part of it. The
test 
runners 'merely' set things up to run in a particular appdomain,
process, etc. 
That's for the good, because creating custom suite types is the most
fully
implemented part of our extensibility feature set.
