ParallelWork: Feature rich multithreaded fluent task execution library for WPF

ParallelWork: Feature rich multithreaded fluent task execution library for WPF
ParallelWork: Feature rich multithreaded fluent task execution library for WPF ParallelWork is an open source free helper class that lets you run multiple work in parallel threads, get success, failure and progress update on the WPF UI thread, wait for work to complete, abort all work (in case of shutdown), queue work to run after certain time, chain parallel work one after another. It’s more convenient than using .NET’s BackgroundWorker because you don’t have to declare one... (more)

Programming Practices: Part 2 – Thoughts on TDD - Brian Harry
Well, it seems the last post wasn’t too controversial. Let me try something that might be a bit more controversial. Heck, it might even get some people down right agitated with me but that’s OK, disagreement is a useful tool to drive clarity and understanding. I don’t like Test Driven Development. I don’t just not like it, I think it’s a bad idea. How’s that for an inflammatory statement? Probably gonna make the cool kids black ball me :) I don’t sp... (more)

Unit Testing and Integration Testing in real projects
Unit Testing and Integration Testing in real projects I am yet to find a proper sample on how to do realistic Test Driven Development (TDD) and how to write proper unit tests for complex business applications, that gives you enough confidence to stop doing manual tests anymore. Generally the samples show you how to test a Stack or a LinkedList, which is far simpler than testing a typical N-tier application, especially if you are using Entity Framework or Linq to SQL or some ORM in data access laye...

Do Unit Test and Integration Test from same test code using Conditional Compilation - Omar AL Zabir blog on ASP.NET Ajax and .NET 3.5

Do Unit Test and Integration Test from same test code using Conditional Compilation - Omar AL Zabir blog on ASP.NET Ajax and .NET 3.5
Do Unit Test and Integration Test from same test code using Conditional Compilation You usually write unit test and integration test code separately using different technologies. For example, for unit test, you use some mocking framework like Moq to do the mocking. For integration test, you do not use any mocking, just some test classes that hits some service or facade to do end-to-end integration test. However, sometimes you see that the integration and unit test are more or less same, they test the sa... (more)

Primes Kata
One of the key aspects of a Software Craftsmanship is constant practice. Kata (from Martial Arts) is one form of such practice. The notion of a Code Kata was first introduced by Dave Thomas and can be viewed as: Practice of the same methods, solutions and activities to a perfection. Practice of the same problem, tackling it each time from a different angle or with a different solution. Below is a video recording of a C# TDD Primes Kata... (more)

Unit testing and mocking internal interfaces with RhinoMocks
Unit testing and mocking internal interfaces with RhinoMocks Im working on a project that i want to cover with unit tests as much as possible. Problem is that most of the things i need to test are kept internal inside some libraries. Im not the kind of purist that will avoid unit testing internal classes. If its some very important code i want to test it even if its internal. Another case when i want to access internal classes is when i want to te... (more)

RhinoMocks Stub not retaining value when property shadowed on inheriting interface | Samuel Moura's DevUX
I was still fixing the tests that had failed after upgrading to Castle.Windsor 2.1 and RhinoMocks 3.6 when I stumble on this one. Basically I had a unit test that passed before I upgraded and as soon as I switched to using the most recent versions of both libraries the test failed.The issue manifested on a stub for an Interface...

Setting Up a Database For Integration Tests
Warning There is a lot of code in this post. Nothing too crazy or fancy just a LOT of code. It's too much of a pain to create and upload a project file so I've just pasted in. If for some reason you are having trouble getting the code off the page just shoot me an email and I'll send it to you. Also, I'm using MSTest so if that bothers you then please move along.Purpose I've always avoided doing full integration tests because it's always such a pain to get a db setup and in working order each time you ...

Mocking framework comparison - Being Cellfish

Mocking framework comparison - Being Cellfish
As you may know I think mocks should be used quite carefully. But as I've pointed out before I think you should use the best tool available and that means to use a mocking framework sometimes. One thing I've never really liked with the typical mocking framework is how it requires you to learn a new API to setup the test double. And if you don't know the API I think a typical mock setup can be very confusing if you see the code for the first time. However if you choose Stubs as your framework you get the ... (more)

The Code Junkie: So you write unit tests, but do you really TDD?
Many developers are claiming to be TDD practitioners, without really understanding the differences between Test-Driven Development and unit testing. Somewhere along the line the definition of TDD has gotten lost and it is time to set the record straight; just because you write unit tests does not mean you practice TDD. (more)

Selective Unit Testing – Costs and Benefits « Steve Sanderson’s blog
I’ve been writing unit tests regularly for 2-3 years now, and doing full-blown test-driven development (TDD) full time for about the last year. Throughout this whole time, I keep noticing the same thing over and over:For certain types of code, unit testing works brilliantly, flows naturally, and significantly enhances the quality of the resulting code.But for other types of code, writing unit tests consumes a huge amount of effort, doesn’t meaningfully aid design or reduce defects at all, and makes the c...

This is a post about the evolution of my thinking and practice regarding Context/Specification-style test composition. I’d like to review my understanding and approach to it over time and some of the frictions that I encountered after the initial re-alignment of thinking that occurs when changing gears to this style of TDD, as opposed to more orthodox varieties. There may be nothing new here for some practitioners of TDD (if that’s you: sorry for wasting your time); but for others who have made/are makin.. (more)

Visoft, Inc. Blogs | Book Review – Manning The Art of Unit Testing
To some, “unit testing” is a four letter word.  While it’s unfortunate, the feeling is justified by poor experiences, lack of knowledge, and so on.  Personally, I’ve had mixed experiences with unit tests.  I’m sure many of you have encountered similar situations.  After reading The Art of Unit Testing by Roy Osherove, I feel far more confident in not only understanding unit tests, but also the best practices for implementation.  If this book had only been written years ago, maybe all those poor unit test...
