Regarding tests, feel free to write these - we have support for NUnit internally. However, we're not really at the stage where there are reams of tests yet - so great if you have them, but don't feel they are essentially in order to submit code.

First off, please read the stuff in our Contributions Policy. An additional point is that as OpenSimulator wants to be a modular 3D worlds virtual server. Therefore, before submitting your code you might want to consider whether it's part of the OpenSimulator core, or really would be considered a module that builds on top of OpenSimulator. If it's the latter, you may be better off hosting it externally and listing it on our Related Software page - a submission directly to OpenSimulator may mean it is removed at a later stage.

Regarding tests, feel free to write these - we have support for NUnit internally. However, we're not really at the stage where there are reams of tests yet - so great if you have them, but don't feel they are essentially in order to submit code.
