Comment:

For Mocking Frameworks please see Comparisons of Mocking Frameworks for SharePoint Development

	Pros	Cons
nUnit	Open Source Can get test results into TFS builds Parameterized tests (in 2.5 beta1) Parallel test execution Use of generics	Requires TestDriven/ReSharper for Visual Studio Integration
xUnit	Open Source Data Driven Testing using the TheoryAttribute Test Attributes	Requires TestDriven/ReSharper for Visual Studio Integration No Assert.Fail
mbUnit	Open Source	Requires TestDriven/ReSharper for Visual Studio Integration
MSTest	Visual Studio Integration	Extremely slow start up time for test execution (copies all dlls and adds instrumentation - large projects takes 30 secs) If running a build server and not using Team Foundation Server...requires Visual Studio on build server Only in Visual Studio 2008 Pro, Team System and Test Edition
