hi mate, I was wondering if it is possible to mock the following case.
from school in dbContext.Schools
join student in dbContext.Students
on school.id equals student.schoolId into students
let firstStudent = students.FirstOrDefault()
select firstStudent.Name;
When all the tables are empty and there is no school and no student in the tables, a real sql execution just returns an empty object of IEnuemrable<string> type. If I mock 'dbContext.Schools' and 'dbContext.Students', 'firstStudent.Name' throws a null exception because 'firstStudent' is null.
Is there a way to conditionally mock only in this context of linq to sql so that we can bypass the null exception and get the mocked execution to run smoothly?

Hello Brad,
Could you put more details about what exactly is the use case and what you are trying to achieve, I am afraid that it is not clear enough based on the brief description. I would like to ask you to prepare a sample unit test project that reflects all these things. This would help us to understand better your scenario and greatly improve the investigation process.
Regards,
Ivo
