# Edit Mode vs. Play Mode tests
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Let’s clarify a bit what Play Mode and Edit Mode test means from the Unity Test Framework perspective:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Edit Mode tests
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Edit Mode** tests (also known as Editor tests) are only run in the Unity Editor and have access to the Editor code in addition to the game code.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With Edit Mode tests it is possible to test any of your [Editor extensions](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ExtendingTheEditor.html) using the [UnityTest](./reference-attribute-unitytest.md) attribute. For Edit Mode tests, your test code runs in the [EditorApplication.update](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/EditorApplication-update.html) callback loop.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> **Note**: You can also control entering and exiting Play Mode from your Edit Mode test. This allow your test to make changes before entering Play Mode.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Edit Mode tests should meet one of the following conditions:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* They should have an [assembly definition](./workflow-create-test-assembly.md) with reference to *nunit.framework.dll* and has only the Editor as a target platform:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```assembly
|
|||
|
"includePlatforms": [
|
|||
|
"Editor"
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Legacy condition: put tests in the project’s [Editor](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/SpecialFolders.html) folder.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Play Mode tests
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can run **Play Mode** tests as a [standalone in a Player](./workflow-run-playmode-test-standalone.md) or inside the Editor. Play Mode tests allow you to exercise your game code, as the tests run as [coroutines](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Coroutine.html) if marked with the `UnityTest` attribute.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Play Mode tests should correspond to the following conditions:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Have an [assembly definition](./workflow-create-test-assembly.md) with reference to *nunit.framework.dll*.
|
|||
|
* Have the test scripts located in a folder with the .asmdef file.
|
|||
|
* The test assembly should reference an assembly within the code that you need to test.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```assembly
|
|||
|
"references": [
|
|||
|
"NewAssembly"
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
"optionalUnityReferences": [
|
|||
|
"TestAssemblies"
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
"includePlatforms": [],
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Recommendations
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Attributes
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Use the [NUnit](http://www.nunit.org/) `Test` attribute instead of the `UnityTest` attribute, unless you need to [yield special instructions](./reference-custom-yield-instructions.md), in Edit Mode, or if you need to skip a frame or wait for a certain amount of time in Play Mode.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### References
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It is possible for your Test Assemblies to reference the test tools in `UnityEngine.TestRunner` and `UnityEditor.TestRunner`. The latter is only available in Edit Mode. You can specify these references in the `Assembly Definition References` on the Assembly Definition.
