Any way to add a custom "UniqueFor"?

[jamescrosswell]

In the docs, it looks like UniqueFor can be used to add delimiters to the file names used...

In our case, we want to run the same tests in two different scenarios:

• Default (Managed Code)
• AOT (Native Code)

We expect the resulting verified files to be different in those two different sceanrios, so I was looking for something in VerifierSettings that I could use to ensure the two sets of files would have different names.

So, we already have names like MethodBeingTested.Run.DotNet7_0.verified.txt... I'd like to have some additional tests run that generate some separate files called MethodBeingTested.Run.DotNet7_0.Aot.verified.txt or something like that.

Ideally this could be done in a ModuleInitializer once for our whole project/solution... rather than configuring it for every verify test we have individually.

Is something like that possible? I didn't see any obvious solution looking at the docs or reading through discussions here.

Hm, I think I found a way to do this... do let me know if this is unadvisable though (I discovered this reading the source code - not the docs):

    [ModuleInitializer]
    public static void Init()
    {
#if AOT_ENABLED
        Verifier.DerivePathInfo((sourceFile, projectDirectory, type, method) => new(
            directory: projectDirectory,
            typeName: type.Name,
            // This ensures a unique name for our verify files when performing AOT compilation
            methodName: method.Name + ".AOT"
            ));
#endif
    }

yes derivepathinfo should work for you

and here is the docs https://github.com/VerifyTests/Verify/blob/main/docs/naming.md#derivepathinfo

Nice, thanks @SimonCropp !
