Introduction

Unit tests test code. Before writing unit tests, you will need to write and run code. Given that the course focuses on the NUnit testing framework, and that NUnit tests code written in the .NET supported languages (including C#), you will need to write and execute code in the C# language. To write and execute C# code, you will need to set up the requisite environments. Thereafter, you may set up the NUnit testing environment.

Setting up developing in C#

To develop in C# and to test C# code, you will need to set up the .NET environment. Fortunately, setting up the .NET environment is a seamless process. Follow the steps below to set up a .NET environment:
