[somnath4993]

Hi @somnath4993
First and foremost, I don't think that nunit3-console supports runlist, so I guess that you are using NUnit2. If that is the case then https://github.com/nunit-legacy/nunitv2 is the right repo.

But for us to be able to help you, you'll need to provide some more information, as it is not clear from the text what the problem is. So:

• How exactly are you calling nunit-console
• What happens (perhaps also supply output)
• What did you expect should happen

[somnath4993]

we are using nunit console 3.9.0 and we want report in xml format. In previous versions of nunit 2.6.4 the /xml parameter is working but in this version it is not there. In previous version by passing text file to command line argument we can get .xml file as a output. So we are searching this type of command in this version also. Can you please tell us if we are doing anything wrong in command line argument.

we are using below command 👍
nunit-console.exe --runlist:PATH OF TEXT FILE "DLL PATH"

See the below page of breaking changes, --runlist has been replaced by --testlist.

Chris have already answered, but I'm curious 😄 . If you run the console with --runlist:PATH as parameter don't you get an error from the console?

sorry i was use testlist only

[somnath4993]

here i am sending my command line screenshot, it is not executing test case, just showing test case passed, you can see the time in screenshot

[mikkelbu]

No need to be sorry. I was just curious whether we had a problem somewhere. Are you sure that the lines in the Run.txt matches the name of the tests? Remember thar the names of the tests should be fully qualified, e.g. MyNamespace.MyClass.TestA.

[ChrisMaddock]

I agree with Mikkel. You can use the --explore flag, to see what your test names should look like. 🙂

[somnath4993]

I have use --explore command and its shown all my scenario which I written in my feature file. and similar name I have mention in run.txt file but no luck

[somnath4993]

my run.txt like below

TPCD_Activate_Modify_Order.FeatureFile.Activate_ModifyFeature.TC01_Create_Login_for_all_required_Users

[CharliePoole]

Can you post the --explore output?

Change the casing in your testlist file so it __exactly__ matches the names in the explore output. For example change this...

TPCD_Activate_Modify_Order.FeatureFile.Activate_ModifyFeature.TC01_Create_Login_for_all_required_Users

to this...

TPCD_Activate_Modify_Order.FeatureFile.Activate_ModifyFeature.TC01_Create_Login_For_All_Required_Users

[somnath4993]

Thank you very much Charlie. it's working now :)

[CharliePoole]

Glad we could help you!

[vkulkarniS23]

I have a similar issue. My casing of the tests matches exactly with the output file. It still doesn't run. Any help will be appreciated.
