| The Latest from DevelopMentor | MORE | | Testing Difficult Code I recently did 3 videos in my ‘ Using ApprovalTests in.Net’ series that deal with how to test difficult code. These video actually have very little to do with either.Net or ApprovalTests, but they are common issues you run into when unit testing. Seams Testing difficult Code comes down to 2 things: Can I call the Method? The Peel The hardest part about long methods is you have to run all of it to test even a small part of it. The Slice (Mocks) Even if you get into the piece you are looking to test, you might not be able to get all the way through it. Llewellyn Falco's Approval Tests - Wednesday, March 21, 2012 ASP.NET WebAPI Security 2: Identity Architecture is static, and static is bad for testing” chant. is a getter/setter and, in fact I find it beneficial to be able to set different security contexts in unit tests before calling in some logic. Pedro has beaten me to the punch with a detailed post (and diagram) about the WebAPI hosting architecture. So go read his post first, then come back so we can have a closer look at what that means for security. Pedro nicely shows the integration into the web host. The ConvertRequest method does the following: Create a new HttpRequestMessage. Why so generic? Do I like that? Stay tuned. www.leastprivilege.com - Thursday, March 8, 2012 Screening C# Candidates: Let’s Play 20 Questions! For example, someone might be called upon to build a WPF app retrieving data from a WCF service that queries a SQL database using Entity Framework with Ninject for dependency injection and MOQ for unit testing. The only way to test for those things is to perform an in-depth technical interview performed by a senior technical specialist. Over the past year I was involved in the process of interviewing candidates for both mid and senior level developer positions. Furthermore, I’m looking for a developer with a thirst for knowledge.

| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - Significant Advances in Unit Testing Windows Workflow
This post describes a unit testing library for testing Windows Workflow Foundations. Rather it's a library that can be used in conjunction with any of these testing frameworks. Download the library with sample test project here: Kennedy.WorkflowTesting.zip (216 KB). First a Little History: Last September I posted this teaser entitled Unit Testing Coming to a Workflow Near You. In that previous post, I highlighted what I could determine to be the current state-of-the-art with regard to unit testing workflows, circa September 2008. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Sunday, January 18, 2009 - Article: Avoiding 5 Common Pitfalls in Unit Testing
Llewellyn Falco and I recently wrote an article for DevelopMentor's Developments newsletter entitled Avoiding 5 Common Pitfalls in Unit Testing. Avoiding 5 Common Pitfalls in Unit Testing. When I started out with unit tests, I was enthralled with the promise of ease and security that they would bring to my projects. In practice, however, the theory of sustainable software through unit tests started to break down. Unit Tests have become more trouble than they are worth.". When tests would stop working, we just ignored them. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Thursday, August 6, 2009 - TDD Invades Space Invaders
As a follow-up to our " Avoiding 5 Common Pitfalls in Unit Testing " article we did a webcast where we took a problem from the audience and solved it live and unrehearsed on stage. The thing to remember is that all of this was done for the sole purpose of creating a recipe for a scenario we could test. Create a new test project. We made it to step 4 during our presentation (download code below) and estimate another 15 minutes would have had the whole scenario done, tested, and well-factored.

However to make Unit Testing simple I’ll add another constructor to MyService so I can pass a specific timeout. Tags: NET;IoC;Unit Testing I’ve been working with the Unity IoC container from Microsoft Patterns and Practices recently. Its mostly straightforward as IoC containers go but one thing had me puzzled for a while as its not really documented or blogged as far as I can see; so I decided to blog it so hopefully others looking will stumble across this article. 1: public interface IService. 3: void DoWork(); 4: }. 1: public interface IRepository. and MyService. .NET Meanderings - Monday, June 7, 2010 - Unit Testing Coming to a Workflow Near You
[Update: See the follow up post "Significant Advances in Unit Testing Windows Workflow" ]. However you won't find very much support for Test Driven Development (TDD) or unit testing in general. In fact the architecture that makes Windows Workflow powerful (strict separation of workflow, activities, and the host for example) really gets in the way of unit tests. There has been some work done on unit testing Windows Workflows. Here's some links: Unit Testing Activities with Windows Workflow Foundation by Ron Jacobs. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - Complete Unit Testing
vBlogged my thoughts here: I'm using the LegacyApprovals package (which I wrote, download below) here to test every combination of the possible parameters. It's design to test a lot of cases, but not every case. Links: Approval Tests (Legacy Approvals is part of the standard ApprovalTest download.) Today I had a conversation with @WoodZuill where an extremely rare situation came up. situation where you can practice TDD with Completeness of the possible user scenarios. It's worth pointing out this is NOT what the LegacyApprovals package was actually made for. - Why Write Unit Tests?
Why Write Unit Tests? I've made a small video to go with this post Approval Tests have allowed us to focus on the parts of testing at a much higher level of abstraction. The benefits of Automated Tests are one of the areas that we can now more clearly appreciate. There are 4 main areas programmers can benefit from using Automated Tests (Unit and otherwise) Specifications Feedback Regression Granularity Let's talk about each of these. Well, you can't do better than a running, failing unit test. First, there is Specifications.
