<p>I've recently started work on the Compact Framework and I was wondering if anyone had some recommendations for unit testing beyond what's in VS 2008. MSTest is <em>ok</em>, but debugging the tests is a nightmare and the test runner is <em>so</em> slow.</p>

<p>I see that NUnitLite on codeplex is an option, but it doesn't look very active; it's also in the roadmap for NUnit 3.0, but who knows when that will come out. Has anyone had any success with it?</p>

We got round this by added a new test attribute allowing you to disable the tests what would only run on the CF (typically these would be p/invoking out to some windows mobile only dll).</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 49653, 'author': 'Kevin', 'author_id': 2723, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/2723', 'pm_score': 3, 'selected': True, 'text': "<p>What we've done that really improves our efficiency and quality is to multi target our mobile application.
