Is there a way to have a SetUpFixture that runs once per class instead of once per namespace?

In NUnit, the SetUpFixture attribute can be used to specify a class that contains setup or teardown methods that are run once before or after all the tests in a given namespace. By default, NUnit runs the SetUpFixture once per namespace, regardless of how many test classes are contained in that namespace.

However, if you want to have a SetUpFixture that runs once per class instead of once per namespace, you can use a custom attribute and a reflection-based approach to achieve this.

Here's an example of how to create a custom attribute and a SetUpFixture class that runs once per class:

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class, AllowMultiple = false)] public class OneTimePerClassAttribute : Attribute { } [OneTimePerClass] public class MyClassSetUpFixture { private static bool hasRun = false; [SetUp] public void SetUp() { if (!hasRun) { // Perform setup logic here hasRun = true; } } }

In this example, we define a OneTimePerClassAttribute attribute that can be applied to test classes to indicate that the SetUpFixture should be run once per class instead of once per namespace.

We then define a MyClassSetUpFixture class that is decorated with the OneTimePerClass attribute. This class contains a SetUp method that is run once per test class, and performs the setup logic only once per class, using a static hasRun flag to keep track of whether the setup logic has already been performed.

By using a custom attribute and a reflection-based approach, you can create a SetUpFixture that runs once per class instead of once per namespace in NUnit.
