How to make NUnit stop executing tests in a Class on a failure

Is there any way to make NUnit abort running any more tests in that class only when it encounters the first error? I'm running integration tests, using the [Order] attribute. These tests can get quite lengthy, and in certain cases there's no need to continue running tests in the class if one of the tests fail. I want NUnit to continue on to other classes, but I want it to abort calling any more classes in that specified class.

Is there any way to do this?

I'm using NUnit 3.2

Thanks!

There isn't currently any way to stop execution of tests within a class on first error. There is only the command line option --stoponerror which stops running all tests on the first error.

The Order attribute is new in 3.2. Unlike other frameworks, it was only intended to order your tests, not setup dependencies for your tests. There is an open enhancement on GitHub for a Test Dependency Attribute, but it hasn't been worked on because people cannot come to a consensus on the design. I think a good first step would be a variation of the Order attribute with dependencies, but some people want a full dependency graph. I would recommend that you head over to GitHub and comment on the issue with your requirements.
