C# testing Frameworks – Overview

The C# testing framework is a set of tools and an API that help construct, run, and manage the automation testing process in C# applications. Theses framework presents the developers with the systematic method to design and architect test suites so that the software works correctly and satisfies the given requirements.

C# testing frameworks typically offer features such as

Test case organization: Allow developers to group tests into logical units such as test classes or test suites for better organization and management.

Assertions: Build functions to state that the code has followed the desired sequence for the code under automation testing to make a program behave logically.

Setup and teardown: Support setup and teardown actions to correctly initialize the test environment before running tests and consequently clean up.

Test discovery and execution: Automatically execute and test the code and provide responses about test results and errors associated with the code.

Mocking and stubbing: Developers should be able to create mock objects to simulate dependencies and isolate units of code for automation testing.

Top C# Testing Frameworks In 2024

Let us see some of the top C# testing frameworks in 2024.

C# Selenium WebDriver

C# Selenium WebDriver is a framework for automation testing. It can process the navigation from the web page and detect its functions, performance, and user experience.

It also allows developers to write code and simulate user actions to verify elements on the web page. This allows for the creation of reliable automated tests that can be executed repeatedly to ensure the application’s behavior

Its cross-browser compatibility allows developers to write tests once and run them across multiple web browsers to ensure test coverage and compatibility with various user environments.

NUnit

The NUnit is a unit testing framework for languages like C# and VB.NET. It addresses the need for developers to write, manage, and run the unit test either within Visual Studio or through the command-line interface.

NUnit offers assertions, test runners, and attribute-based automation testing capabilities to validate the behavior of individual components. Its extensible architecture allows integration with various development tools and continuous integration pipelines that enable automation testing practices. NUnit supports parameterized tests, setup, teardown methods, and parallel test execution in automation testing. It remains the best framework for .NET developers to maintain code quality through unit testing.

MSTest

MSTest provides developers an efficient tool for writing and executing unit tests for .NET applications. MSTest can integrate with the IDE to create and manage unit tests effortlessly.

MSTest supports various testing features, such as test discovery, assertion methods, test execution, and result reporting, to effectively validate code’s behavior and functionality. It also offers attributes for defining test methods and classes to enhance the organization’s efficiency and maintainability.

It reduces the writing process and testing execution action and provides a wide user guide for most project types like .NET Core, .NET Framework, and Xamarin.

MSTest is integrated into the Microsoft Azure DevOps cloud platform to customize the unit cloud testing phase into automation testing and continuous feedback.

xUnit.NET

xUnit.NET follows the xUnit testing pattern, emphasizing simplicity, clarity, and extensibility. xUnit.NET provides developers a flexible platform for writing and executing unit tests to validate code functionality.

Its extensible architecture allows for easy integration with various development tools and frameworks. It also offers multiple assertion methods and test runners for a diverse set of testing scenarios.

xUnit.NET promotes test isolation, parallel test execution, and deterministic test outcomes. It supports test fixtures and setup/teardown methods. It can also encourage test-driven development (TDD) by integrating with popular IDEs. It also offers integration with continuous integration tools to incorporate unit testing into their CI/CD pipelines.

SpecFlow

SpecFlow is a BDD framework that uses natural language syntax for creating and writing scenarios, as well as the execution and management of acceptance tests for .NET software. It can be integrated with Visual Studio and other .NET development tools to enhance collaboration among developers and testers.

SpecFlow allows it to formulate executable specifications expressed in a human-comprehensible manner using the Gherkin syntax. These specifications can be added to the software documentation to maintain their functionality.

SpecFlow encourages collaboration and communication among cross-functional teams by defining a common language of application behavior expressed in a readable format. This approach also promotes code reusability and manageability by reusing the step definitions within many scenarios and features.

FluentAssertions

Fluent Assertions is the assertion library for .NET. It enables developers to write assertions in their unit test cases. It uses natural language that allows developers to identify assertions through the fluent interface.

It lets developers write assertion statements like natural language sentences to make the unit test easily understood. Such if-else statements held in the form of assertions can be written as “should” followed by a mentionable situation like “should be equal to” or “should contain,” showing what kind of behavior is expected for that tested code.

It supports various assertions like basic equality checks, collection assertions, and complex object comparisons. It also provides built-in support for asserting exceptions to verify that their code throws the expected exceptions under specific conditions. It also provides customizable assertion messages and failure descriptions.

Ranorex

Ranorex is an automation testing tool specially developed to make application testing of all platforms, including desktop, web, and mobile apps, easier and faster. Its graphical user interface (GUI) is so intuitive to create automated tests.

Unlike other testing tools, Ranorex has an object recognition capability that facilitates testers’ easy identification and interaction with UI elements, including buttons, text fields, and dropdown lists distributed across different platforms. This enables the development of automation testing, which precisely reproduces user interactions.

In addition, it provides built-in support for data-driven testing so they can easily write their test cases and execute them using different sets of data to ensure complete test coverage. It integrates with popular continuous integration and delivery tools that will automate the execution of the created tests as part of their build-up pipelines for continuous integration/delivery.

Its reporting capabilities offer a detailed assessment of the test results and common metrics needed. Testers can analyze the test results, identify problems, and track the progress of their testing activities by using customizable metrics.

BDDfy

BDDfy enables developers to implement Behavior-driven Driven Development practices in their .NET projects. BDDfy allows teams to focus on defining the behavior of their software through executable specifications written in natural language to establish collaboration between developers, testers, and stakeholders.

BDDfy also allows developers to write tests using natural language constructs to make the intent of the tests clear and understandable to all team members. This facilitates better communication and alignment of expectations throughout the development process.

The integration provides flexibility and versatility in test organization and execution, enabling teams to adopt BDD practices.

BDDfy provides detailed and insightful test reports that highlight the software’s behavior under test. These reports provide valuable documentation and can be shared with stakeholders to demonstrate progress and ensure alignment with requirements.

ApprovalTests

ApprovalTests is a versatile testing library designed to simplify verifying code output. ApprovalTests allows developers to approve the current behavior of their code by capturing and comparing its output against previously approved results.

Developers can quickly integrate ApprovalTests into their existing testing workflow regardless of the programming language or testing framework used. This makes it a valuable tool for various development environments like .NET, Java, Python, and more.

ApprovalTests improves handling complex output formats such as large data structures, images, and multi-line text. Developers can easily identify unexpected changes by capturing the code output and comparing it to approved results.

It effectively supports generating and managing approval files to review and update approved results as needed. This ensures that tests remain relevant and accurate over time.

NSubstitute

NSubstitute is a .NET mocking library constructed to simplify the process of creating and maintaining mock classes in unit testing. Mocking is a technique used in unit testing to simulate the behavior of dependencies in a component under test interactions with developers to isolate and test individual components.

NSubstitute expressive syntax enables developers to define mock objects and their behavior using natural language constructs. This makes it easy to understand and maintain mock setups.

NSubstitute supports various mocking scenarios and provides powerful features such as argument matches, callbacks, and received call verification to create flexible mock setups for unit tests.

The integration allows developers to use NSubstitute alongside their existing testing tools and practices without additional configuration.

NSpec

NSpec is a behavior-driven development testing framework for .NET developers designed to promote clarity, readability, and expressiveness in test specifications. It allows developers to write tests in a natural language format that closely resembles the software’s behavior specifications.

NSpec focuses on human-readable test specifications written using a syntax similar to plain English. This makes developers, testers, and stakeholders actively involved in the business and simplifies behavior definition and verification.

NSpec offers us features to do test management, such as grouping test cases under nested contexts, showing descriptive naming conventions, and a behavior-driven development paradigm. This allows developers to create clear and concise test specifications that accurately describe the expected behavior of the software under test. It also ensures compatibility and consistency across different testing environments, making adopting NSpec in existing projects easier.

Utilizing an automation testing framework tailored for C#, conducting automated testing for your website or mobile application becomes a straightforward task.

LambdaTest, an AI-powered test orchestration and execution platform, empowers you to execute manual and automated testing for your web projects on an extensive online browser farm featuring over 3000 real browsers, devices, and operating system configurations. Its cloud-based automation testing platform facilitates the execution of automation tests utilizing various C# testing frameworks such as Selenium, Appium, SpecFlow, NUnit, and others that help you test websites in different browsers.

Conclusion

In conclusion, C# testing frameworks in 2024 present developers with the right choices to meet various testing requirements. From NUnit’s strong focus on unit testing to SpecFlow’s emphasis on behavior-driven development, developers can access efficient tools for maintaining software quality. Whether the need is for unit testing or behavior-driven testing, these frameworks improve automation testing workflows and enhance the overall quality of C# applications.

i think big powerful men should be obliterated. preferably by smaller more unassuming men but i'm flexible. that's the only thing that matters to me

#samtxt #i understand if you want the opposite. i understand the urge. although i do not feel it #the bigger a man is the more i want him to be obliterated. this is my cross to bear #okay there are a few exceptions though like i do think giovanni would be doing the obliterating most of the time honestly #i think it would be nice for him to be obliterated from time to time though. as a treat.#i forgot i wrote this post and just found it open in my browser rn okay i'm hitting send i guess

the final scenes of khχ, khuχ, and khdr, respectively

aka it always comes back to ephemer…

#I’M EMOTIONAL DON’T TOUCH MEEEEEE #sobbing screaming crying. choking etc #ephemer #khux #kingdom hearts #khdr spoilers #mine: kh #also yeah i used everglow’s footage i know the clear discrepancy between player scenes looks weird lol #I THINK. it would’ve been neat if since khux and khdr are in the same app your accounts were connected #so that it could program your custom player character in khux; however you left them; to appear in those flashbacks in khdr #also yes for those of you who don’t know. chi and union cross are actually two different games lol #chi was the pc browser game that covered the events up until the keyblade war #union cross was everything after that #idk if they went and added those pre-war scenes into unchained x/ union cross later but it would make sense if they did #however they did not originate there. that’s all i’m saying. they’re obviously like a part one and part two of the same tale #but they are technically separate games

I agree that pretending that Firefox is 100% as powerful as Google Chrome is dumb but honestly if you're out there opening more than 80 tabs at the same time then the problem is actually objectively coming from you and not Firefox you absolute degenerate

#never in my life have I gone above 20 tabs open at the same time idk what y'all are doing but it's time to learn to click the little cross #bee tries to talk #firefox #web browsers #google chrome #also yes firefox crashes more often than google chrome but it DOES save all your tabs #my only real issue with this fucking browser is the incompatibility with Outlook. wake the fuck up firefox !!!

hihi if u know my main then u know ^_^ if you don't then i probably have you blocked. anyway this is in a sense kind of a follow-up to one of my posts there so i guess this is kind of like. an extended version of that. director's cut or smth. anywayyyy

MAYBLADE 2023 DAY 4: SCI-FI

AKA: WHY THE FUCK IS V-FORCE LIKE THAT

bakuten shoot beyblade 2002, or beyblade v-force as i will be referring to it for the rest of this post, despite being mostly filler (in the sense that most of what happens in it isn't in the manga at all), is not a season that fucks around, except it also does that a lot. but what i'm getting at here is that even if you don't realize it, it becomes VERY clear what kind of season this is very quickly.

season 1 of bakuten shoot beyblade is a little bit absurd sometimes. that kind of comes with the territory (unless you're most of burst), but that does not make the existence of a US government-funded beyblade research facility aswell as beyblade child soldiers (unrelated to the first thing, making that two instances of beyblade war crimes) and beyblade rasputin any less ridiculous. v-force, however, takes this further.

in season 1 of bakuten shoot beyblade, the us government-funded beyblade research facility is introduced in episode 19 and isn't really important in the long term. the beyblade child soldiers are introduced in episode 40 and are very important to the plot, and beyblade rasputin is casually dropped in episode 42 and never mentioned again.

beyblade v-force drops a beyblading robot (not to be confused with the character who is a beyblader and also a robot, who we will get to later) on you in episode 4. this is the kind of season you will be watching for the next 47 episodes! have fun!

i don't know what exactly to say about this moment. when it comes down to it i think it just speaks for itself really. and for most of beyblade v-force, this vibe is still very present. even when it's not ridiculous in this way, psykick and their no-name goons have a sort of saturday morning cartoon vibe, or atleast that's the best way i can describe it. this feeling is also present with zagart for a good chunk of the latter half, atleast until episode 41 comes around and things finally start to kick into gear on that end.

however, there is a very particular point where the weird sci-fi bullshit is able to work in harmony with actual good drama, and if you know my main you undoubtedly know where i'm going with this.

but first! consider the following concept: artificial divinity. man-made recreations of gods, created to be not just equal to but more powerful than their original counterparts. and these beings, both by nature and their sheer power, take over the minds of those who wield them, with the user dying in the worst case scenario.

what i have just described is the digital sacred beasts. the execution isn't perfect- mostly because psykick is fucking lame, but other than that it's... actually really fucking good. this, in no small part, is due to episode 16. remember that kid from like 11 episodes ago? the one who was pretty fuckin gay for kai? well. um.

this is genuinely such an excellent introduction to the plotline, and i know it's technically not the introduction but also it may aswell be because for a good while i genuinely FORGOT about the actual introduction. i could actually go on about this plotline for a good while but also this is a really really long post already so. onto the last thing!

yeah the kid's been a robot the whole time! fuck you! i don't even know what to say anymore i've been writing this post for atleast an hour now. v-force is so fucking stupid but that just adds to the experience i think. everyone say thank you to v-force right now.

#mayblade #mayblade 2023 #beyblade #bakuten shoot beyblade #i have several more insane ramblings planned on a few days of the month. be prepared.#also one drawing but that'll be on my art blog #fitting how i will be making two posts for the doubles day. actually it's fucked up how that's not on the 22nd #cause it's double doubles. or smth #sidenote but i got this browser extension called animalese that makes animal crossing noises when u talk it's really good #makes typing a lot more fun actually #it also encourages me to be like. comically wordy when writing things out which is fum #fun. i meant fun. what is fum #i checked the word count this is somehow only like 600 words. i have written like over 800 words about zeo before i think #i am like the only person on here correct abt this show <3 besides like a couple other people probably

Hoi this is NebularTheory/Hiddenshaddowwolf’s main blog (do not judge lmfao)

So I wrote a VERY short thing for u as a continuation of your Up High ficlet on AO3 cause >\\\\\\> it was really cute. And I saw something the other day that reminded me of your ficlet. So why not?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

“hey. hey. i learned a magic trick the other day. it starts kindof like a high five. wanna see?”

The door closed behind you and you raised an eyebrow at Stretch, a smile on your lips as you peeled off your snow-dusted coat. He looked a little nervous, orange painting his zygomatic arches a pretty, glowing hue, and your stomach twisted in anticipation. The last time he did a high-five trick, you’d held hands on the couch for a full hour before someone had needed to get up and grab a snack. But since then your budding mutual attraction had been growing like weeds through sidewalk cracks.

You still squealed quietly to yourself sometimes when you thought about how nice your first kiss together had been.

“Sure.”

Stretch nodded and he held his hands up, palms facing you. You slapped them both enthusiastically and he chuckled fondly with a soft shake of his head. “great. but this is one where you follow along with the trick. we do it together. hands up.”

You hastily hung your coat on the hook and faced him, matching the posture he was taking. You looked a bit like you were going to play patty-cake, which was another thing you’d have to ask him about later. There were still so many cute gaps in his knowledge about the human world. “Hands up.”

“ok. palms together.”

Done and done.

“Are we going to pray together?” You teased and his eyes twinkled with mischief.

“maybe. ok. so for the trick to work this next step is kindof important. keep your one hand flat, fingers apart. put the fingers from your other hand in the gaps.” He demonstrated with his own hand, lacing just one set of his own fingers through the spaces between the outstretched phalanges of his other hand. Your forehead wrinkled just a little as you matched the pose, not seeing where this was going, but willing to give it a chance.

“Ok.”

“good. got your palm nice and tight with your gripping hand? lemme see.” He let his own hands go and reached over to try pulling your hands apart, meeting your challenging grin with an even brighter blush.

“Nice and tight. Next?”

“ok. hold ‘em tight. ready?”

“So ready.”

With one hand he slipped his own phalanges over your fingers so two sets of digits were filling the spaces between your outstretched fingers. Suddenly his grip over those fingers tightened, locking your hands together. His free hand gently pressed on your hip, guiding you backwards to the door immediately behind you, and the hand holding both of yours lifted your arms over your head.

Your heels, hands, head, and hips all bumped against the door at the same moment, and Stretch stepped forward to follow after you. His mouth chased after yours, and in the next moment you were helplessly pinned beneath his body with your arms over your head, being kissed senseless by your crush.

When your mouths finally parted, he stared down at you with lidded sockets, a satisfied grin plastered across his skull.

“so... did you enjoy my magic trick?” He asks, moving closer once again. His breath ghosted over your lips as he whispered... “it’s called the high 15.”

Stretch wiggled his phalanges from where he’s threaded them between your fingers for emphasis.

“... Just shut up and kiss me again.” You sighed, letting out an exasperated laugh.

It was very easy to lock the door behind you after that. And maybe somebody did end up on their knees in worship that afternoon.

=======================

Hello friend !!! AHHHHHHHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! AhhHHH 💖💖💖

Thank you so much for this 🥺🥺🥺💛✨This is so so so cute!!!! I love how Stretch's high-five adjacent trickery has evolved- he's gotten EVEN SMOOTHER!! He's stepped up his game !!! '////// ' ) And the lil implication of spice at the end there with the callback to the reader's mention of prayer... 👀💞 Also, may I please link this in the notes of UP HIGH? *w* )?

#submission #friends writing #papyrus/reader #underswap!papyrus/reader #underswap papyrus/reader #reader insert #inbox #I HAVE TRIED TO POST THIS FOUR TIMES AND IT KEEPS CRASHING MY BROWSER HELP #fingers crossed it works this time #i keep coming back to read this and giggling skjhfsdfkj its just so cute auuuggjdkgjjfkgl 🥺🥺
