testing - Pass parameters via the command line to NUnit

Question

Is it somehow possible to pass values to NUnit tests via the command line?

My tests use a certain URL. I have different instances of my code at different URLs and would like to specify the URL via the command line. File App.config is not an option, because I want to run the tests for different URLs via a batch file.

Answer 1

Use an environment variable to pass the information.

Use set from the command-line or <setenv> from NAnt. Then read the value using Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable().
