Interference between tests

[Paul]

Hi

We are experiencing some problem with some tests where mocking in one test seemed to interfere with another. I.e there is a test class that has 32 tests. When all tests are run one of them fails. When this one test is run on its own it passes. It seems that one of arrangements is not working. It's very difficult to reproduce that in controlled environment and I'm not allowed to send all sources.

What could cause that and what should I look at. I'm asking for some guidelines that could help me to nail the problem. Alternatively I would appreciate if someone could help me directly with the problem. I'm happy to organise a Live Meeting/Webex/Whatever session to show the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks again for sending the issue. However i would recommend you to take a look at the following post:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/justmock/general-discussions/mocks-failing-to-work-correctly-in-large-test-runs.aspx

The reason behind this issue is that when running as a whole one of the expected member in some test method is already gets invoked and thus during the actual mocking process JM fails to intercept it.

Please take a look into the post and let me know if you still having the problem once adding the initializer.

Here please note that you can also include the Mock.Partial or Mock.Initialize in static constructor of the test class as well rather doing it in ClassInitialize

Kind Regards,
