Workleap.Extensions.Xunit 1.0.2

Workleap.Extensions.Xunit

An opinionated library that provides base unit test and fixture classes based on the Microsoft.Extensions.* packages used by modern .NET applications.

Getting started

There are base classes for unit and integration tests. Each test method has its own service collection configured through a class fixture.

Unit tests

Create a test class that extends BaseUnitTest<> and accepts a class fixture that extends BaseUnitFixture.

In the fixture class, you can:

• Override ConfigureServices(services) to add, remove or update dependencies for each test method.
• Override ConfigureConfiguration(builder) to makes changes to the generated shared IConfiguration.
• Access the generated IConfiguration through this.Configuration.

In the test class, you can:

• Access the fixture through this.Fixture.
• Access the .NET logger through this.Logger - it is connected to the Xunit's ITestOutputHelper.
• Access the IServiceProvider which has been configured by the fixture through this.Services.

By default, unit tests come with an xunit-connected ILogger and an empty IConfiguration.

Integration tests

Create a test class that extends BaseIntegrationTest<> and accepts a class fixture that extends BaseIntegrationFixture. They both inherit from their respective BaseUnit* class.

• BaseIntegrationFixture adds a default IHostEnvironment where its environment name is:

  • Local by default,
  • Test on CI environments,
  • overrideable by defining a DOTNET_ENVIRONMENT environment variable, such as in .NET modern applications.

• BaseIntegrationFixture adds appsettings.json and appsettings.{environment}.json optional configuration providers and also an environment variable configuration provider.

Example

public class MyUnitTests : BaseUnitTest<MyUnitFixture>
{
    public MyUnitTests(MyUnitFixture fixture, ITestOutputHelper testOutputHelper)
        : base(fixture, testOutputHelper)
    {
    }

    [Fact]
    public void Some_Test_Works()
    {
        var myClass = this.Services.GetRequiredService<MyClass>();
        myClass.DoWork();
    }
}

public class MyUnitFixture : BaseUnitFixture
{
    protected override IConfigurationBuilder ConfigureConfiguration(IConfigurationBuilder builder)
    {
        // Executed once per fixture instance
        return base.ConfigureConfiguration(builder).AddInMemoryCollection(new Dictionary<string, string>
        {
            ["My:Config:Variable"] = "foo",
        });
        
        // In an integration fixture, you could add concrete configuration providers, such as:
        // builder.AddAzureKeyVault(...);
    }

    public override IServiceCollection ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
        // Executed for each test method
        return base.ConfigureServices(services)
            .AddTransient<MyClass>()
            .AddTransient<IDependency>(new MyFakeDependency());
    }
}
