Hey guys, I have seen a lot of bad NUnit tests that unnecessarily compare exception messages. They are wrong not only because they fail in non-English Windows environment but also because those tests will fail when Microsoft improves the messages. Furthermore, it blocks possible message translation in the future. They have been blocking me from checking NUnit test sanity. And thanks to that, now we actually have a lot of wrong compatibility assumptions in our own tests. (I don't say incompatibility is bad but they do not have to be asserted unnecessarily.)
Let me repeat: let's not compare any localizable strings. Atsushi Eno _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
