Introduction
Test methods often require testing the same behavior but with different inputs. NUnit supports parameterized tests to test the same behavior with a diverse array of input/output pairs. If a group of test cases is common enough, parameterization reduces the number of test methods. This reduces the developer’s workload.
Parameterizing tests
Suppose we have an application code that returns the type of triangle depending on triangle lengths. ...
