Visual Studio like code snippets in Rider

Question

Does anyone know if the JetBrains Rider IDE supports kind of "code snippets"? I usually have a snippet in Visual Studio for creating NUnit test cases, like:

[Test]
[Description("Some description")]
[MaxTime(1000)]
public void Test()
{
#region Arrange
#endregion

#region Assert
#endregion

#region Act
#endregion
}

Yes, there is.

In Rider, it is called Live Templates.

• Open menu File > Settings.
• In the Settings window, expand Editor > Live Templates.
• Click the green "+" icon to add a Template Group.
• Click the green "+" icon to add a Template.
• In the Abbreviation field, define the keyword you want to use to trigger it.
• In the field Template Text, insert the code.
• In the field Applicable in, set the context where this live template will be used.
• In the field Expand with, select how you want to expand the code after typing your keyword.
• Save your changes.
• Go to the editor and type the abbreviation, and then the key you defined in the Expand with field.
• Rider will create the code for you.

Keep in mind that Live Templates use a different syntax from Visual Studio Code Snippets, so you can check this page - Predefined Live Templates for C# - for further reference.
