Cannot mock … The profiler must be enabled to mock, arrange or execute the specified target

[Stuart Hemming]

I have the following in a test (my first ever JustMock test, I might add)...

var template = Mock.Create<MessageType>
Mock.Arrange(() => template.Subject).Returns("This template has Zero tokens.");
Mock.Arrange(() => template.Body).Returns("This template has {{number}} of {{tokens}}.");

The class being Mocked looks like this ...

public class MessageType : BaseBusinessEntity
{
    public string Body { get; set;}
    public int DigestsToBeIncludedOn { get; set; }
    public Guid MessageReference { get; set; }
    public int MessageTypeId { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public int PredefinedRecipients { get; set; }
    public string Subject { get; set; }
}

When I attempt to run the test I get ...

Can anyone point out what I've done wrong?

Hi Stuart,

It appears that the profiler is not enabled. You should enable the JustMock Profiler from the JustMock menu in Visual Studio.

Please refer to our knowledge base article explaining how to tackle "profiler not enabled" issues.

What If I am using the nugget package and didn't actually install the whole package?

[Ivo]

Hello Mohammad,

I am afraid that you will not be able to run elevated tests using JustMock nuget package since it deploys the free version. Here is an article which clearly states the differences.

Hello, is it possible to enable the profiler for Rider IDE ? also I read here that installs the free version but if we decide to buy the license, we won't be able to use to install the

Hello Franco,

I suppose that you are interested in advanced features that JustMock delivers with commercial version. All these features could be enabled via environment using dedicated variables, please refer to this article to see how exactly. More information about 'registry free profiler' could be also found on MSDN. Since there is no officially existing integration with Rider IDE the only possible way to enable JustMock elevated mode is to use the similar approach like command prompt, i.e. to prepare a small bootstrap batch script which setups the required environment and than launches the IDE. JustMock configuration tool would be available too, for more details please refer to this topic in documentation.

On the latest Justmock version I cannot find the Telerik.JustMock.Tests.dll that I need to run the commands from the article 

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/justmock/integration/windows-batch-command#how-to-run-profiler-enabled-justmock-tests-in-command-prompt

Also the VS 2017 MsTest.exe file I need is located elsewhere: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\MSTest.exe"  

--->

SET JUSTMOCK_INSTANCE=1
SET COR_ENABLE_PROFILING=1
SET COR_PROFILER={B7ABE522-A68F-44F2-925B-81E7488E9EC0}

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\MSTest.exe" /testcontainer:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\JustMock\Examples\Telerik.JustMock.Tests\bin\Debug\Telerik.JustMock.Tests.dll"

Hello Rafael,

The examples have evolved to include even more test scenarios and with that, the path was changed. You can open the following folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Progress\Telerik JustMock\Examples\CSExamples", build the "Telerik.JustMock.CSExamples.VS2019.sln" solution and use the output dll instead.

I will also encourage you to check the JustMock Console article as JustMock Console is a newer and more powerful tool compared to JustMockRunner.

I hope this information answers your questions

Thank you very much for the prompt reply I will review

Reviewed further and something that might have success is setting the environment variables in the Build > Unit Testing > Test Runner option area. But Need to test this more but optimistic this might work for me. Now just need to get Selenium and Jasmine testing working.
