Test categorization

description

There is a nice Category feature in the R# test runner but unfortunately it appears it doesn't work with XUnit. Best I can tell there is no category attribute in Xunit and I can request that with them. There is a category attribute in component model data annotations that could perhaps be used? Or some other way to get this to work possibly?

The trouble is that xunit doesn't have a Category attribute as such. It has the Trait attribute, but that's very open, allowing any custom name/value pair to be associated with a test method. What would you use as a category attribute? I'd imagine using a trait with a key value of "category" (case insensitive). What do you think?

How about adding all traits as "categories" to the R# runner? Just add the name/value pair as a single formatted string (ex: "name: value").
