Is it possible to to execute code befor all tests are run?

I am writing integration tests.Now, before tests are run I want to setup the database with initial data.For this, I have created a separate project, which is run before test project is executed(using MSBuild file).But, I want to merge the db setup code in testproject, and have it executed before any tests get executed.I am using MBunit 3.Is it possible?

You can declare a class with the [AssemblyFixture] attribute; and a few methods into that class with the [FixtureSetUp] and [FixtureTearDown] attributes to define assembly-level setup and teardown methods.

[AssemblyFixture]
public class MyAssemblyFixture
{
   [FixtureSetUp]
   public void SetUp()
   {
      // Code to be run before any test fixture within the assembly are executed.
   }

   [FixtureTearDown]
   public void TearDown()
   {
      // Code to be run after all test fixture within the assembly are executed.
   }
}

In fact, the syntax is similar to what is usually done at test fixture level with the well-known [TestFixture], [SetUp], and [TearDown] attributes.

MBunit doesn't have excessive documentation, but quick googling gives this article from which I can tell that MBUnit has similar attributes to NUnit [SetUp] and [TearDown]. Methods decorated with those are executed before, and after each test respectively.

Generally test frameworks have method attributes to allow code to be executed before each test and after each test and before a test run and after a test run. I don't know the attributes for mbunit as I haven't used it.

Check out this link... I am sure mbunit would have attributes that are similar to nunit
