NUnit provides a console runner (nunit3-console.exe), which is used for batch execution of tests. The console runner works through the NUnit Test Engine, which provides it with the ability to load, explore and execute tests. When tests are to be run in a separate process, the engine makes use of the nunit-agent program to run them.{{citation needed|date=January 2017}}

The NUnitLite runner may be used in situations where a simpler runner is more suitable. It allows developers to create self-executing tests.{{citation needed|date=January 2017}}
