FitNesse & FitSharp: Some troubleshooting (1)

Debugging FitSharp FitNesse tests

I´ve worked a lot with FitNesse & FitSharp during the last months in several software projects. Until lately it has always been a big pain to solve any problems when no tests have been executed at all when you clicked the „Test“ button in FitNesse or when tests have been executed via commandline, e.g. within the automated build. Most of the times it was more or less guessing in the wild, changing something here, adapting something there, until the tests ran again.

Setting up FitNesse for Team Foundation Server

Lately my colleague Maxence Bonhomme and I set up FitNesse to be used within several .NET projects which are all build on one Microsoft Team Foundation Server. Since it was quite some work to do we documented all the steps, and as it was an official work project, we published the documentation on the Agile Partner blog: Setting up FitNesse for Team Foundation Server.

Escaping symbol names in FitNesse

For the records: I lately had the case that I wanted to read a symbol´s value within a FitNesse sub wiki page which I included within another site for the first time. In this special case the symbol doesn´t get interpreted as symbol by the FitNesse engine, but as a normal camel case´d string, so it gets represented as a link to another wiki page: E.g. when having an string like „LukeImYourFather“ and assuming that there´s no wikipage with that name, the rendered output of this will be LukeImYourFather? where the question mark links to a new empty wikipage.
To avoid this behaviour simply escape the symbol´s name (but not the ‚<<‚-prefix) the standard-FitNesse-way: !- -!
