Couple of Rants, IE 7.0 and NUnit

I can't use Blogger from Internet Explorer 7. I get infinite redirects I have to kill. Microsoft gets a bad grade here.

Why NUnit is worse than a Visual Studio Test Project :

A. You cannot DEBUG your test while it is running without Attaching to Process 'NUnit.exe' from the menu bar. In Visual Studio, simply set the breakpoint, go to the Test pane, right-click and run the test.

B. You cannot get the Application Configuration to work without renaming and moving around the "app.config" file. In Visual Studio, configuration just works.

C. NUnit requires me to run an application called "NUnit" where Visual Studio requires nothing other than itself with the Test Project as part of the Solution.

D. Visual Studio will automatically author the skeleton of your test methods, and this helps greatly for getting a high Code Coverage.
