DotNetUnitTestFreeObject Function

Action

Releases the object handle, so that the garbage collector will free the object. The object should be loaded with DotNetUnitTestLoadObject in order to work correctly.

Before the object is freed it is possible that a global CleanUp method will be called. Following unit testing frameworks support a unit-test wide CleanUp method:

Silk Performer .NET Framework
NUnit Test Framework
Microsoft's unit testing framework (Microsoft Visual Studio 2013、2015、2017)

During DotNetUnitTestLoadObject the information about such a method is gathered. If such a method exists, it will be called right before the object is freed.
