[Bug 785460] [NEW] Add Category parameter to TestCaseSourceAttribute

 

Public bug reported:

By email from Oleg Gerovich:

I am unable to enter bugs on Launchpad, so I'm emailing you per your
request.

We need the following feature (came out of discussion of bug 691129).

Add Category parameter in TestCaseSource. Example:

[TestCaseSource("dataList1", Category="Dev")]
[TestCaseSource("dataList2", Category="Production"]

NUnit should execute all tests in dataList1 if Dev category was accepted
and all tests in dataList2 if Production category is accepted. That
should be the default behavior. You can also add an option like
"CategorySource", which can be set to "TestCaseSource" to result in
default behavior or to "TestCaseData" to run tests in dataList1/2 that
have category Dev/Production (this is your approach #1 in bug 691129).
We are interested in the default behavior right now, so if adding the
option is troublesome, it's not a big deal. Option names/values are up
to you.
