...

This field can a contain single testable file or multiple testable files including .dll files, NUnit projects or .NET projects and solutions. All files specified are relative to the agent's workspace so to reference the output directory of the workspace, you only need Output\ (not $Workspace$\Output). However you can still specify absolute files such as C:\myTests and the NUnit action will point to the correct location.

This field also supports Ant Patterns to specify multiple files. For example, \Output\**tests.dll would test all .dll's that end with tests which are located in the Workspace's output folder and any of its subdirectories.

. You can choose to input each file or you can choose to use a pattern that matches testable files. In order to match multiple files using patterns, you will need to put the pattern in Ant Pattern format. Each file/pattern must be start on its own a new line.

Output

File

When NUnit executes, the output will be stored in this file. Even when specifying multiple files to test, all of the output it put into a single file. The output file specified is relative to the agent's workspace so to reference the output directory of the workspace, you only need Output\ (not $Workspace$\Output). However you can still specify absolute files such as C:\myTests and the NUnit action will generate the output file in the correct location.
