This release of NUnit expands on parallel test execution to allow test methods to be run in parallel. Please see the Parallelizable Attribute for more information.
NUnit 3.7 also drops the Portable build of the framework and replaces it with a .NET Standard 1.3 version to complement the .NET Standard 1.6 version. This change enables several constraints and other features in the .NET Standard builds that weren't available in portable like Path and Directory based asserts.
The AssertionHelper
class has been deprecated because it is seldom used and has not received any of the updates that Asserts and Constraints receive. If your code is using the AssertionHelper
class, we recommend that you migrate your asserts.

This release of the framework no longer includes builds for Compact Framework or for SilverLight, but adds a .NET Standard 1.6 build. If anyone still using Compact Framework or SilverLight and would like to continue development on those versions of the framework, please contact the NUnit team.
See the release notes for a complete list of changes.

This is the first version of NUnit where the framework will be released separately from the
console runner, engine and other extensions. From this point forward, the NUnit Framework will be
released on its own schedule that is not bound to that of any other NUnit project and version numbers
may diverge over time.
This is also the first release where the NUnit Framework will not be included in the installer. Only
the console runner, engine and extensions will be available as an MSI installer. We recommend that you
use the NUnit NuGet packages for the framework, but a ZIP file with the binaries will also be available.
See the release notes for a complete list of changes.

This is mainly a bugfix release, but it contains several features that were intended for the 3.4 release.
NUnit 3.2 introduced a change that ran each test on its own thread. In hindsight, this was a mistake and made it difficult for tests that required a specific context. We have reverted to the previous behaviour of running tests on the same thread unless a test attribute requires a new thread. We also added a new [SingleThreaded]
attribute that you can apply to your test fixture to explicitly declare the requirement. Using this attribute allows the framework to raise an error if you mistakenly use an attribute on a test that requires a new thread.
Developers who target .NET 3.5 using the .NET 2.0 version of the framework ran into conflicts with some of the compatibility classes in NUnit. To fix this, we have reinstated the .NET 3.5 version of NUnit.
Very large test suites were using a large amount of memory causing paging and slow test runs on some systems. To reduce memory pressure, we are now releasing objects earlier, greatly reducing memory requirements.
The NUnit Engine now has an EventListener extension point for people who want to write extensions that respond to specific events during test runs.

This is the second release candidate for NUnit 3.0 which fixes a few issues that were found in the initial release. All the features we intend to include are present and this is the final step before releasing. If we have to make changes due to errors there will be additional release candidates. Otherwise, this build will be re-packaged as the final release.
For details of changes in this release, see the release notes.

This is the second beta release of NUnit 3.0 bringing us one step closer to the final release. This release splits the distribution of the Compact Framework version of the NUnit Framework out of the main package and adds a new core engine for use by devices and similar situations where reduced functionality is compensated for by reduced size and simplicity of usage.
