Unit Testing in Dotnt

Unit testing in .NET focuses on ensuring code reliability by testing components in isolation using Xunit and Moq. Key practices include writing test cases with [Fact] and [Theory], mocking dependencies, and handling async methods. Common issues include ArgumentNullException and incorrect response type assertions, emphasizing the importance of thorough testing for maintainability.

Unit Testing in .

NET

Overview

Unit testing in .NET ensures code reliability by testing individual components


in isolation. We use Xunit as the testing framework and Moq for mocking
dependencies.

1. Writing Test Cases

 Use [Fact] for individual test methods.

 Use [Theory] with [InlineData] for parameterized tests.

 Assert expected vs actual results using Assert.Equal, Assert.True, etc.

2. Mocking Dependencies

 Utilize Moq to mock service dependencies.

 Example:

 var mockService = new Mock<IMyService>();

 mockService.Setup(s => s.GetData()).ReturnsAsync(expectedData);

3. Testing Controller Actions

 Use Mock<IService> to isolate controller logic.

 Check status codes and returned objects.

4. Handling Async Methods

 Use await and Task.FromResult in test setup.

 Example:

 mockService.Setup(s => s.GetDataAsync()).ReturnsAsync(mockData);

5. Common Issues

 ArgumentNullException due to missing dependencies.

 Incorrect response type assertions in controller tests.

 Mocking void methods requires .Setup().Callback().

Unit testing ensures maintainability and reduces regression errors.
