Culture Aware unit test?

[StefH]

Is it also possible with TUnit to define that a unit test should run a specific culture?

Like this project which I build for XUnit?

    [Culture("en-US")]
    [Test]
    public async Task MyTest()
    {
        ...
    }

Ideally this would be noted somewhere in the documentation. If you (@thomhurst ) like, I could try to write up a simple draft and put it under https://github.com/thomhurst/TUnit/tree/main/docs/docs/test-authoring?

That'd be great 😄

Just putting this here if someone else runs in to this when migrating from XUnit. In XUnit you can set the culture for the whole test project using xunit.runner.json. With TUnit that can be done using the above attribute for the test assembly.

[assembly: TUnit.Core.Executors.Culture("en-us")]

Or if you have multiple test projects that share a Directory.Build.props, this is something that should work but for some reason breaks all the test with something being null.

<Project>
  <ItemGroup>
    <AssemblyAttribute Include="TUnit.Core.Executors.CultureAttribute">
      <_Parameter1>"en-us"</_Parameter1>
      <_Parameter1_IsLiteral>true</_Parameter1_IsLiteral>
    </AssemblyAttribute>
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

So just pop it into a shared file, like AssemblyInfo.cs and then include it in your projects from Directory.Build.props.

<Project>
  <ItemGroup>
    <Compile Include="../AssemblyInfo.cs">
      <Link>AssemblyInfo.cs</Link>
    </Compile>
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>
