xUnit3003

Cause

Source location information in xUnit.net v3 (starting with build 3.0.0-pre.15) is collected by way of constructor arguments that are supplied automatically by the compiler. Classes which derive directly or indirectly from FactAttribute should have a constructor which accepts the source information and passes it along to the base class.

Reason for rule

Failure to provide the source information via the compiler will result in tests not having source information in Microsoft Testing Platform mode, including Test Explorer and dotnet test.

How to fix violations

To fix a violation of this rule, add a constructor which accepts and passes along the source information.

Examples

Violates

using Xunit;

public class CustomFactAttribute : FactAttribute
{
    // ...
}

using Xunit;

public class CustomTheoryAttribute : TheoryAttribute
{
    // ...
}

Does not violate

using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using Xunit;

public class CustomFactAttribute(
    [CallerFilePath] string? sourceFilePath = null,
    [CallerLineNumber] int sourceLineNumber = -1)
      : FactAttribute(sourceFilePath, sourceLineNumber)
{
    // ...
}

using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using Xunit;

public class CustomTheoryAttribute(
    [CallerFilePath] string? sourceFilePath = null,
    [CallerLineNumber] int sourceLineNumber = -1)
      : TheoryAttribute(sourceFilePath, sourceLineNumber)
{
    // ...
}
