Re: Check that all properties match?

It should be trivial to write a simple implementation of such a constraint.
What I'm concerned with is the difficulty of integrating it into NUnit. As
with the Ordered and Serializable constraints, the hard work for me has been
to go everywhere the constraint is going to be needed and implement all the
- mostly syntactic - modifications to the code. That's why some time ago I
proposed a different route, hoping that it could lower the barrier to
implement new constraints. I would love to be able to integrate new
constraints into NUnit via extension methods.
