Integration Testing Web Services Against A Testing Database?
Oct 27, 2010
I'm currently building a .net web application that uses WCF web services to allow a Flex front end to access the database.
I'm in the process of setting up some unit/integration style testing on the web services and am trying to work out the best way to allow the tests to access and modify data in a separate test database.
Currently, the connection string in my unit test project points to my testing database, and the connection string in my web services project points to my development database. However, as I am using Linq it appears that when I call the web service methods from my test class, it uses the development database connection string. I have looked into creating mock objects or in-memory database but I believe the same issue would occur.
Is there a way to get this to work, or is my entire idea about what I want incorrect, in which case is there a better way to set this up?

Recently for a class to implement unit test for one of its private methods I used PrivateObject by creating private accessor instead of refelection, to which i received a code review comment as below
"My main concern with Private Object is the use of object[] in constructor. It replaces strong typing enforced by compiler with JavaScript-style run-time error detection.Consequently , personally, I would not recommend it."
Comments above confused me beacuse as per my understanding reflection also needs the object[] to invoke any method.

i have a .NET 3.5 solution with an asp.net(web site) project with fluentnhibernate and it's test project(class library project).i've referenced the asp.net project in the test project and with all fluentnhibernate/nhibenate dlls.
What i fail to comprehend is that, on a run of a webform (hit from browser) let's say Test.aspx, building of schema is successfull and i could see the tables in my database.
here is the method i call on Test.aspx.cs
[code]....
So from my comment the NullReferenceException happens when accessing the connectionstring. I don't have the explanation on why that happens.

I want to write unit tests for a web service. I create my test project, reference my web project (not service reference, assembly reference), then write some code to test the web services - they work fine. However, there are some services which make sure the user is logged in to the web application by using HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated. In the context of the tests, there is no such thing as HttpContext, so the tests always fail. How should these kinds of web services be unit tested?

I have been looking at the unit testing topic and honestly I have never yet seen it in a live application.
Im a little foggy on the subject....
A simple example is if I am populating a listbox with data, I would know through debugging if the data is being populated and if it wasnt it would probably be easy to figure out why. Futhermore I couldnt possibly put it in production if it wasnt work so, why would I need to do a unit test? I dont see the point of it.

In MVC, the unit testing is primarily surrounding the controllers. The Model is rarely tested, and the View not at all. What is the consensus on this?

I'm using the Moq framework to do my unit testing. I'm following some really useful instructions outlined here to mock the httpcontext, specifically for the purposes of testing the url referrer:[URL]
Everything seems to compile fine, however when running the test I get the following error:
System.Web.HttpException: Invalid use
of SimpleWorkerRequest constructor.
Application path cannot be overridden
in this context. Please use
SimpleWorkerRequest constructor that
does not override the application
path..
When analyzing I find the error seems to be thrown at the following line:
var wr = new SimpleWorkerRequest("", "", "", "", writer); I'm not sure what to make of this. What is the SimpleWorkerRequest and how does it work in creating the HttpContext in Moq?? Why is my use of it invalid according to the debugger??
UPDATE: Here is the complete method I use taken from the website above
public static HttpContextBase FakeHttpContext()
{
var httpContext = new Mock<HttpContextBase>();
var request = new Mock<HttpRequestBase>();
var response = new Mock<HttpResponseBase>();
var session = new Mock<HttpSessionStateBase>();
var server = new Mock<HttpServerUtilityBase>();
var cookies = new HttpCookieCollection();
httpContext.Setup(x => x.Server).Returns(server.Object);
httpContext.Setup(x => x.Session).Returns(session.Object);
httpContext.Setup(x => x.Request).Returns(request.Object);
httpContext.Setup(x => x.Response).Returns(response.Object);
response.Setup(x => x.Cookies).Returns(cookies);
httpContext.SetupGet(x => x.Request.Url).Returns(new Uri("http://www.csuci.edu"));
httpContext.SetupGet(x => x.Request.UrlReferrer).Returns(new Uri("http://www.csuci.edu"));
//var writer = new StringWriter();
//var wr = new SimpleWorkerRequest("", "", "", "", writer);
//HttpContext.Current = new HttpContext(wr);
return httpContext.Object;
}
I commented out the problem lines, that seemed to fix it, but I'm still not sure what those lines were supposed to do and why they were causing error.

I know red-gate's ANTS Performance Profiler but it works with source code. I have an ASP.NET web application that is deployed on a remote server. I'm going to test its performance while it is working on the server.
My main goal is to detect what method of what class is slow and then is a bottleneck. Is there a way or a tool?

I use visual studio 2005 and now my team wants me to try my hand at some testing frameworks for asp.net websites.I'm completely new to testing. I want to know what kind of automated testing can I do.Can I test my business logic,Can I test my UI.I just started using NUnit and I am getting a hang of it. For Web UI testing I've tried Nunit asp.Somewhere I found about Selenium, which of this is better.Also is there an add-in to test Javascript code with NUnit.Is there an better alternative to NUnit.

I created a new ASP.NET MVC application and the accompanying unit tests that can be generated automatically. I created a new Controller method and tried to wire up a test. The test failed, and I tried to step through the test code to find out the state of certain variables. The breakpoint showed as being set, but it never was hit.
I did a Google search on this, and there are many other people wondering the same thing - why doesn't this work? The answers have been sketchy at best. The most proliferant seems to be that the unit tests are run in the production configuration instead of the debug configuration, and so several steps are required to get breakpoints to work. Seriously? This is something I would expect to be enabled by default. What good is test code you can't step through? Why create a set of unit tests that require you to jump through several hoops to get this very basic feature running? NUnit (and I suppose others) don't have this issue.
how to get the breakpoints to work were completely different than all the others, and I'd like to know if anyone has an idea of how to enable debugging of the unit tests that are included in Visual Studio 2008.

I need to implement my own Profile properties and was going to inherit from System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase to achieve this.
What I don't understand is how to best unit test this Profile class in isolation without hitting the database.

I'd like to write some code and then just write the unit tests for the important stuff.
I know the tools. I know how to write a unit test.
I wrote some code (couple off classes) and I don't know where to start. I'm missing the semantic.
How to pick up what to unit test ?
Should I unit test every class extra ?
Should I try to simulate every possible variation of method's parameters ?

I've been investigating a few of them.What I have found so far that seems usable.
Windmill
Selenium
Watin
Windmill looks like it has the basics (still not sure if I can write C# unit tests with it)Watin seems awesome with Unit tests..of the 3, it looks like Selenium is trying to be the most fully featured af the 3 (most recent version is today!)

What is the best way to test if a url & querystring is valid? For example, after a login redirect I want to make sure the target url is valid. If not, go to a default page.
We seem to have a problem with the querystring, starting with "ReturnUrl=", being duplicated and that throws an exception. We'd rather have it go to a default page.

I do not want to do my development based on an emulator, so I want to be able to have my phone (Android), to connect to my local PC to make sure what I am developing comes out the way I want it to.
Issue #1 - I need to be able to connect to my network, not internet, I can't have my PC internet facing, this limits me from opening my PC to the internet.
Issue #2 - No WiFi allowed at my work, security issues.
Issue #3 - I can't publish this to a internet facing site, since the procedure to get it to one, take a few days each publish and will put my development to a crawl.
What I'm looking for, is a way to get my phone to connect to my local PC, maybe via USB/Bluetooth but have access to my local IIS.
