What is the best way to do this? I want to get this working with nCover.

Most of these will need to run through the Silverlight plugin, so it isn't an easy task :-( – Jeff Wilcox Aug 05 '10 at 00:51

I made a run at this and came close... but in the end it didn't really work out for me.
The guy from Test Driven made a template for testing silverlight in nunit. I upgraded this to Silverlight 4.0 then I ran nCover.
The proof of concept worked great... but when I tried it on our actual product things fell apart pretty quick.
Many of our unit tests reference AGcore and others referent GUI objects, which is why I think I kept getting some sort of cross threading error.
I read that SilverUnit may be able to do this sort of thing... but you have to pay 700+ dollars per developer. I wish the guy who wrote that would consider selling it separately.
Oh well... someday maybe I'll see code coverage numbers... not today though :-)

zachary,
Can you provide more detail on "the proof of concept worked great"? NCover is not able to profile Silverlight because it does not support the CLR.

The modified version of the nUnit dlls run on the CLR so as long as there was nothing referencing Silverlight core or there were not any controls then everything worked. – Xander Aug 06 '10 at 21:36
