Beware the cost of "async"
// Don't do this, because you don't need async if you're only calling one
// downstream async method and returning its value, unprocessed.
public async Task<int> DoSomething(int x, int y)
{
return await SlowMath.AddAsync(x, y);
}
// Do this instead:
public Task<int> DoSomething(int x, int y)

Dependency selection logic issues in NuGet v3

Look at these lines in this NUSPEC file:

https://github.com/xunit/xunit/blob/b1cbc40158cc53be5b9150bcdeb2e1cae40db5c9/src/xunit.extensibility.execution.nuspec#L24-L44

They were added because we observed some very unusal behavior. Specifically, note that the libraries are all platform specific (other than portable-win81+wpa81). Without the highlighted lines, this is the observable behavior when referencing this NuGet package:

  • It would link against the platform-specific library (e.g., lib\net45\xunit.execution.desktop.dll)
  • It would pull the dependency list from "dotnet", some of which are clearly not net45 compatible (e.g., System.Runtime 4.0.20)

We originally had a TF-less group, which we assumed would be used by anybody who wasn't "dotnet" or "dnx46":

bash-git prompt overrides

The OS X version does not require any custom fonts, because it uses the built-in emoji and symbol support in OS X.

The Linux version requires that you install Font Awesome.
