Resharper Tips

Map your Resharper ‘Run Test’ key

One of the great things about Resharper is it enables you use your keyboard more and your mouse less while your program. One of the first things I do on a new project is to map my Resharper ‘Run Test’ key. When you can perform a common programming task by touch, it is a good feeling. It is like you think it and it happens.

. To map your Resharper ‘Run Test’ key:

  1. In Visual Studio 2005 with Reshaper 3.1 installed, go to the Tools menu and select Options.
  2. Under Environment select Keyboard.
  3. Find the keyboard mapping named ‘Resharper.Resharper_UnitTest_ContextRun’.
  4. Enter your shortcut key, click Assign and then Ok. My personal preference is to map it to ALT+N.
  5. Try your shortcut key by opening an NUnit test, clicking on the body of your test, and then pressing your new shortcut key. The Resharper NUnit test runner should start up and run your test.
