# Which tools are most used for unit testing in ASP.NET MVC?

Hi All,\
Can [anyone give me](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/41194/can-anyone-give-me-some-high-and-low-points-of-each-of-the-four-first-presidential-administrations) a list of [tools](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13129/great-tools-for-continuing-your-education-past-college) for most used in [testing](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/1849/role-of-testing-in-software-development) in [ASP.NET MVC](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/155798/what-is-caching-in-asp-dot-net-mvc).\

Hi Sachin,\
Below are the tools used for unit testing –\
**NUnit:** http://www.nunit.org/\
NUnit is a unit-testing framework for all .Net languages. Initially ported from JUnit, the current production release, version 3.0, has been completely rewritten with many new features and support for a wide range of .NET platforms.\
**xUnit.NET:** https://xunit.github.io/xUnit.net is a free, open source, community-focused unit testing tool for the .NET Framework. Written by the original inventor of NUnit v2, xUnit.net is the latest technology for unit testing C#, F#, VB.NET and other .NET languages. xUnit.net works with ReSharper, CodeRush, TestDriven.NET and Xamarin. It is part of the [ASP.NET](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/934/default-folders-available-inside-the-asp-dot-net-application-folder) Open Source Gallery under the Outercurve Foundation, licensed under Apache 2 (an OSI approved license).\
**Ninject 2:** http://www.ninject.org/\
