TestCleanupAttribute Class

Identifies a method that contains code that must be used after the test has run and to free resources obtained by all the tests in the test class. This class cannot be inherited.

The TestCleanupAttribute type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	TestCleanupAttribute	Initializes a new instance of the TestCleanupAttribute class.

Top

Properties

	Name	Description
	TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Top

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsDefaultAttribute	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetIDsOfNames	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetTypeInfo	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetTypeInfoCount	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.)
	System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#Invoke	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Remarks

The method marked with this attribute will be run after methods marked with the TestMethodAttribute and before methods marked with the ClassCleanupAttribute and AssemblyCleanupAttribute.

This attribute can be specified on a method. Only one instance of this attribute may be applied to a method.

By default, this attribute is used in generated code.

For more information about how to use attributes, see Extending Metadata Using Attributes.

Examples

The SampleClassLib namespace contains the DivideClass class, which in turn contains the method we want to test. This method is called DivideMethod().

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace SampleClassLib
{
   public class DivideClass
   {
      public int DivideMethod(int a)
      {
         return 2 / a;
      }
   }
}

Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Text

Namespace SampleClassLib
    Public Class DivideClass
        Public Function DivideMethod(ByVal a As Integer) As Integer
            Return 2 \ a
        End Function
    End Class
End Namespace

In the following code, the DivideClassTest test class contains a test method called DivideMethodTest. This code also contains attributes that control the initialization and clean-up execution order for the method, class, and assembly.

In particular, note the TestCleanup attribute on the Cleanup() method.

using SampleClassLib;
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace TestNamespace

   [TestClass()]
   public class DivideClassTest

      [AssemblyInitialize()]
      public static void AssemblyInit(TestContext context)
      {
         MessageBox.Show("Assembly Init");
         }

      [ClassInitialize()]
      public static void ClassInit(TestContext context)
      {
         MessageBox.Show("ClassInit");
      }

      [TestInitialize()]
      public void Initialize()
      {
         MessageBox.Show("TestMethodInit");
      }

      [TestCleanup()]
      public void Cleanup()
      {
         MessageBox.Show("TestMethodCleanup");
      }

      [ClassCleanup()]
      public static void ClassCleanup()
      {
         MessageBox.Show("ClassCleanup");
      }

      [AssemblyCleanup()]
      public static void AssemblyCleanup()
      {
         MessageBox.Show("AssemblyCleanup");
      }

      [TestMethod()]
      [ExpectedException(typeof(System.DivideByZeroException))]
      public void DivideMethodTest()
      {
         DivideClass target = new DivideClass();
         int a = 0; 
         int actual;
         actual = target.DivideMethod(a);
      }
   }
}
