Unit testing WCF services through dependency injection (www.toomuchcode.com)

submitted by Jemm(9400) 8 months, 22 days ago

"When building a WCF service in an enterprise application, this service frequently depends on other services or resources. When creating unit tests for this service, we don’t want to host all these other services over WCF endpoints. Instead we will most likely want to inject mock objects. In some case we may even want to inject some in-process instances of these other services." read more...

unit testing your events (www.dotnettoad.com)

published 1 year, 9 months ago, submitted by Pakl(120) 1 year, 9 months ago

In this article I will show you how you can unit test your events. I will show you a simple technique that will enable you to test if your events fire exactly as often as you want them to and I will provide you with two implementations. One implementation works well with the .NET Framework 2.0 and the second one uses .NET 3.0 (anonymous methods) in order to minimize the code necessary. read more...

Moq: Why do we need yet another NET mocking framework? (www.clariusconsulting.net)

published 1 year, 10 months ago, submitted by powerrush(3754) 1 year, 10 months ago

"I've already argued in the past why I think forcing regular developers to learn and understand the difference between a stub, a fake, a "true" mock and a dynamic mock is unproductive and largely irrelevant for their TDD needs. Also, even though quite common in the mocking community, the typical record/replay model is alien to developers and introduces yet another new concept that makes the learning curve steeper than needed.

Last week, at the London .NET User Group meeting, Ian Cooper talked about Test-driven development, focusing on both good and bad practices. I’m a big fan of learning from anti-patterns and mistakes of other people, so the second part of his session was very interesting to me. Here is a short list of things that Ian identified as symptoms that TDD has gone bad in a project, along with my comments... read more...
