Public bug reported:
Feature Request: provide an option to include the run date and time
somewhere in the full path for the NUnit result file, TestResult.xml.
Ideally, that path would either originate in a test fixture, or else
originate in the NUnit framework, and be made available to the tests in
a test fixture, so they could send output to the same directory.
To illustrate the request with a specific example: suppose all tests in
a test fixture output diagnostic information to a directory named "test
run <run-date-time>", where "<run-date-time>" is the date and time of
the construction of the test fixture at run time. The purpose of this
request is to provide some way to output the NUnit result file
TestResult.xml to the same directory.
Possible mechanisms to provide this feature, or something equivalent:
1. Allow a TestFixture (or other class or method) to specify the output
path for TestResult.xml.
2. Provide for a macro in NUnit's configurable output path for
TestResult.xml, such that the date and time are included in the path,
and make that path available to test fixtures and tests.
3. Provide a post-processing step after TestResult.xml has been written,
where a named batch file could be run. Code in a test or test fixture
could dynamically generate the contents of that file, ex. copy
TestResult.xml "test run 2011-01-03-2300".
