A few weeks ago, I talked about TDD bliss and showed some live templates that I had created for Resharper to relieve some of the more mundane parts of writing unit tests.

The original version of the templates included only a Test method and a TestFixture class. I’ve updated the live template file to now also include these templates:

• te : A test with an ExpectedException attribute.
• ti : A method called TestInitialize decorated with the [SetUp] attribute.
• td : A method called TestCleanup decorated with the [TearDown] attribute.

This should handle most scenarios you encounter while using NUnit. Of course, these templates can easily be modified to support the VSTS Unit Testing Framework.

Update: These live templates are now available on github.
