I'm using Visual Basic .Net, .NET-Verion 4.6.1, VS 2019 Community.

I want to include Unittests in my project so I istalled NUnit, created a Test-Project, imported the project I want to test, call a class in the project and I get:

SetUp failed for test fixture *Project*_Test.*Class*_Test System.IO.FileNotFoundException : Could not load file or assembly 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51'. The system can't find the required file.

So I searched around and installed the Config-Manager with Nuget-Console -> didn't do anything. ... copied the Config-Manager.dll from the project to my test-project -> different fileNotFound exception. This time it wants the next file.

So I debugged and saw, that the error originates on this line of code

Private ReadOnly STR_CONNECTION_STRING As String = DirectCast(New Global.System.Configuration.AppSettingsReader().GetValue("*DB_Conn_String*", GetType(String)), String)

How do I remove this error? The line of code doesn't seem to be the problem, since the test can't find the classes in the first place.

Thx for the help Daedra

Okay, I spend a good day to figure this out:

If you use .NET-Framework for the project, you want to write tests for, you don't want to go

Add -> New Project -> NUnit Test (.Net-Core)

You run into unlimited problems with .NET-Core vs .NET-Framework.

Instead do

Add -> New Project -> Class-Library (.NET-Framework)

Then go to NuGet and install NUnit and NUnit3TestAdapter.

I simply copied my already written tests and they worked instantly.

Hope this helps someone someday ^~^

Cheers Daedra
