c#: public when debugging, private otherwise

Question

Is there a nice way to make it so that functions are public when I am testing with NUnit, but private otherwise?

Not having to generate a lot of extraneous code would also be nice.

------------------------Edit------------------------

It seems the solutions fall under 3 types:

1. don't do what I'm attempting to do.
2. use compiler directives.
3. try a clever solution (like using InternalsVisibleTo).

Might there be a way to do this programmatically? i.e. just create a new temporary app that makes all protected/private/internalfunctions public, plug that into NUnit, run the tests there, and then go back to using the private functions for the release version?

Answer 1

You might not need to if you have good coverage on your public methods which call the private methods but that seems to be another debate into it self.
