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. DevelopMentor Courses - Tuesday, December 7, 2010 - Lynn Langit: Better Unit Testing with Approval Tests
Here’s my updated deck for SDC 2013, Sweden ‘Better Unit Testing with Approval Tests’ If you want to learn more, check out Llewellyn’s YouTube channel on Using Approval Tests in.NET. DevelopMentor Courses - Sunday, February 24, 2013 - 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. DevelopMentor Courses - Wednesday, March 21, 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. C# Phone Screen Questions (without Answers). DevelopMentor Courses - Tuesday, February 28, 2012 - Use Common Instance Factory to Abstract Away the Dependency Injection Container
lot of DI-specific code is needed for unit tests, where there is extensive mocking, and advanced features of a DI container such as Ninject come in handy. Here is a unit test that demonstrates the usage. Download the Common Instance Factory with WCF Extensions here and is also available on NuGet. while back I wrote a blog post on the Onion Architecture , an approach to building loosely-coupled applications where you can swap out particular components without affecting the rest of the application.

| 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 - 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 - 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.
