Description

@CharliePoole commented on Sat Jan 30 2016

This came up in the discussion of nunit/nunit#1187.

We need a page in the wiki that talks about NUnit at a higher level, how classes map to TestFixtures, methods to test cases, etc. The particular point that came up is the idea that constructors of test classes should do very little.

Research direction

Review the discussion in nunit/nunit#1229 and the related nunit/nunit#1187 before drafting the wiki page. Document how classes map to TestFixtures, methods to test cases, and why test-class constructors should do very little. Done means the wiki has a clear higher-level explanation covering these points.
