Re: [Nunit-users] Need Feedback: RequiredAddinAttribute

I don't have strong opinions on this topic, but I do have a use case
to consider in the conversation.

Suppose that you distribute your tests with your program to be run
after install. If your tests require that a particular Addin be
installed, it would be nice to have an explicit message that told the
customer why the tests didn't pass (Addin X Required by NUnit) instead
of just having hundreds of tests fail for reasons that might not be
immediately clear. Possibly worse yet, all the tests pass and the user
thinks all is well because NUnit doesn't recognize the test classes as
even being tests without the Addin present.
