I'm working on a large c++ system that is has been in development for a few years now. As part of an effort to improve the quality of the existing code we engaged on a large long-term refactoring project. Do you know a good tool that can help me write unit tests in C++? Maybe something similar to Junit or Nunit? Can anyone give some go...
I seem to recall reading about an Amazon S3-compatible test server that you could run on your own server for unit tests or whatever. However, I've just exhausted my patience looking for this with both Google and AWS. Does such a thing exist? If not, I think I'll write one. Note: I'm asking about Amazon S3 (the storage system) rather tha...
I'm one of the people involved in the Test Anything Protocol (TAP) IETF group (if interested, feel free to join the mailing list). Many programming languages are starting to adopt TAP as their primary testing protocol and they want more from it than what we currently offer. As a result, we'd like to get feedback from people who have a ...
I am looking for a tool that can take a unit test, like IPerson p = new Person(); p.Name = "Sklivvz"; Assert.AreEqual("Sklivvz", p.Name); and generate, automatically, the corresponding stub class and interface interface IPerson // inferred from IPerson p = new Person(); { string Name { get; // i...
I believe strongly in using unit-tests as an approach to building large multi-platform applications. We currently are planning on having our unit-tests within a separate project. This has the benefit of keeping are code base clean. I think, however, that this would separate the test code from the implementation of the unit. What do you t...
I am looking for a good way to consistently test my web applications from the end users point of view. I have all kinds of ways to check to make sure my code is working behind the scenes. I can't count the number of times that I make a change to a piece of code, test it and it works fine and then deploy it only to have it blow up somewhe...
I'm working on the issue of testing my GUI and I'm not entirely sure of the best approach here. My GUI is built using a traditional MVC framework so I am easily able to test the logic parts of the GUI without bringing up the GUI itself. However, when it comes to testing the functionality of the GUI, I'm not really sure if I should worry ...
I am going to be starting up a new project at work and want to get into unit testing. We will be using VS 2008, C#, and the ASP.NET MVC stuff. I am looking at using either NUnit or the built in test projects that VS2008 has, but I am open to researching other suggestions. Is one system better than the other or perhaps easier to use/un...
Hi all, I'm looking for advice on the built-in unit testing feature provided in VS08. Can any body please tell me if they know of any reasons NOT to use this feature over any of the other packages available (I'm vaguely familiar with NUnit)? I'm planning on applying unit testing to an older project just to learn the ropes of unit testi...
Given the code from the Complex Form part III how would you go about testing the virtual attribute? def new_task_attributes=(task_attributes) task_attributes.each do |attributes| tasks.build(attributes) end end I am currently trying to test it like this: def test_adding_task_to_project p = Project.new para...
I am attempting to get the Resharper test runner to recognize my MSTest unit tests via Gallio. I have the following installed: VSTS 2005 8.0.50727.762 Resharper 4.1 Gallio 3.0.0.285 I am also running Windows XP x64. The unit test options only shows NUnit as being available. I am thinking that I must have some versioning wrong. Can som...
What's the best way to automate testing the UI in an Asp.net Page? ...
Does anyone know whether there's a way to mock Entity Data Provider so Unit Tests don't hit the live data? I found this blog but it seems the project hasn't been released: http://www.chrisdoesdev.com/index.php/archives/62 Thanks ...
I have a series of functional tests against a web application that correctly run, but each require the class level setup and teardown provided with the @BeforeClass and @AfterClass annotations, and hence require JUnit 4.0 or above. Now I want to perform load testing using a small number of these functional tests, which simulate a large ...
I'm trying to incorporate some JavaScript unit testing into my automated build process. Currently JSUnit works well with JUnit, but it seems to be abandonware and lacks good support for AJAX, debugging, and timeouts. Has anyone had any luck automating (with ANT) a unit testing library such as YUI test, JQuery's QUnit, or jQUnit (http...
What are some popular naming conventions for Unit Tests? General Follow the same standards for all tests. Be clear about what each test state is. Be specific about the expected behavior. Examples 1) MethodName_StateUnderTest_ExpectedBehavior Public void Sum_NegativeNumberAs1stParam_ExceptionThrown() Public void Sum_NegativeNumb...
In a recent question on stubbing, many answers suggested C# interfaces or delegates for implementing stubs, but one answer suggested using conditional compilation, retaining static binding in the production code. This answer was modded -2 at the time of reading, so at least 2 people really thought this was a wrong answer. Perhaps misus...
As a beginner to TDD I am trying to write a test that assumes a property has had its value changed on a PropertyGrid (C#, WinForms, .NET 3.5). Changing a property on an object in a property grid does not fire the event (fair enough, as it's a UI raised event, so I can see why changing the owned object may be invisible to it). I also ha...
What is the best way to run your suite of unit tests after each commit? I'm particularly interested in the case that you do all of your features/changes in branches and keep your trunk stable. My source control is SVN and I use tortoise SVN as my client. Is there an SVN event or something along those lines that I can call a .cmd/.bat...
Hi all, I just wanted some opinions from people that have run Selenium (http://selenium.openqa.org) I have had a lot of experience with WaTiN and even wrote a recording suite for it. I had it producing some well structured code but being only maintained by me it seems my company all but abandoned it. If you have run selenium have you ha...
