Re: [DUnit-interest] Is DUnit dead?

[Marius P. <map...@gm...>]

Hi,

While DUnitX is different than DUnit (in ways I appreciate), let me add
that they provide an easy way to upgrade from DUnit.
They have a unit called DUnitX.DUnitCompatibility that adds the CheckTrue
etc methods used by DUnit and implements them over DUnitX.

See the introduction here
https://www.finalbuilder.com/resources/blogs/postid/697/introducing-dunitx,
specifically:

*Can I convert my DUnit Tests to DUnitX?*

Moreover, a GUI is in the works. The recent add of Command line parameters
to run specific tests replaced a lot the need for a GUI.

Kind regards,
