[Cross Posted from http://www.skimedic.com/blog] Mocking Exceptions When writing unit tests, it is important to cover not only the successful execution path (commonly referred to as the “Happy” path), but also test the code that gets executed when things don’t go right (commonly referred to as the “Unhappy” path).  Testing for situations where services or databases are unavailable as well as erroneous user input are important aspects of ensuring quality in software.  Remember, if you don’t test it, your users will! We modify the LoginUser method to throw a custom exception when there is an exception is thrown from the LoginService.  To test this,...

I am very pleased to announce the introduction of the new WebUI Test Studio Support Knowledgebase. Our support engineer's have been hard at work adding valuable content. Some of the new article topics include: Troubleshooting Misaligned Element Highlighting Creating a Scheduling Server Manually Activating your WebUI Test Studio License Repeating Actions for Multiple Users with Login (using the Test As Step feature) Many more to come! We encourage you to bookmark this site and check back often - it will be a great resource for all things WebUI!

To illustrate the first option, look at the following test: [Test] public void Show_Sequential_InSequence_Arrange_Option() { var service = Mock.Create<IService>(); Mock.Arrange(() => service.GetSum(Arg.AnyInt, Arg.AnyInt)) .Returns(4).InSequence(); Mock.Arrange(()...
