Faking The Windows Azure Table Service

When presented with a new technology, one of my primary evaluation criteria is its testability, so it should come as no surprise to the regular reader of this blog that this was also foremost in my mind when Windows Azure was presented at PDC. Much of

A General-Purpose Fake ADO.NET Data Service

In my previous post , I discussed how to implement a Fake ADO.NET Data Service for use with unit testing, showing how you can develop a one-off service that addresses specific needs, such as querying parents and children in the example. As I hinted in

Creating A Fake ADO.NET Data Service

Previously , I discussed unit testing ADO.NET Data Service clients using a Fake ADO.NET Data Service, and I promised to demonstrate how to create such a service. In this article I will continue the previous example and implement the Fake MyService class.

Unit Testing ADO.NET Data Service Clients

In my previous post , I discussed unit testing ADO.NET Data Services and how you can host and test the service itself. In this post, I'll take a look at the opposite scenario: You have a client of an ADO.NET Data Service, and you want to unit test the

Unit Testing ADO.NET Data Services

ADO.NET Data Services enables you to expose data (including, but not limited to, relational data) as REST services. Since it's built on top of WCF, it can be tested utilizing similar techniques , but allow me to elaborate a bit on the subject. As with

An Overview of Unit Testing Duplex WCF Services and Clients

In the last couple of posts, I've demonstrated how to isolate implementation from WCF contract definition and behavior in a duplex communication scenario. These posts have been rather detailed, so it occurred to me that you might benefit from an overview.

Unit Testing Duplex WCF Clients

In my previous post , I explained how to unit test a WCF service with callbacks. Since the scenario involves duplex communication, the service is also a client, and vice versa, so it's only reasonable to look at the 'client' as well, to examine how to

Unit Testing Duplex WCF Services

One of my readers recently asked me about unit testing WCF services when they have callbacks. Given that I strongly believe that you should attempt to implement your services without referencing WCF at all , but duplex WCF services require you to get

Implementing WCF Services Without Referencing WCF

More than a year ago, I wrote my first post on unit testing WCF services . One of my points back then was that you have to be careful that the service implementation doesn't use any of the services provided by the WCF runtime environment (if you want

Integration Testing WCF Services

In my previous post about unit testing WCF services , I hinted at the need to perform integration testing of services as well. As Jimmy writes , you should still place your logic involving OperationContext in the Service Interface Layer (SIL): In many

Unit Testing WCF Services

A few years ago, when ASP.NET web services were the only (or at least most common) implementation of web services on the Microsoft platform, you couldn't really unit test services. Obviously, since you had programmatic access (via a proxy class) to the
