Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Do you guys mock everything in your Unit Tests?
Bogus - For creating fake data Verify - Snapshot testing for .NET MELT - For testing ILogger usage Stryker - Mutation Testing for .NET TestContainers - run docker programmatically in integration tests

WinForms communicate between forms
To keep things interesting Bogus library is used to create a Person instance.
-
The art of Deconstructing
Usage with mocked data using Bogus NuGet package.
-
Using EF Core and Bogus
Going forward, the secret to knowing were to find data is to read Bogus information in the readme file which goes into depth were to find paths to generate data. This is very important as you can clash with their classes e.g. you create a Person class and guess what, Bogus has a Person class. This is were knowing how to work with using statements and using statements with aliasing.

Learn DateOnly & TimeOnly
Code samples for Json.net which as of version 13.0.2 now supports DateOnly and TimeOnly. Three code samples are used to show interactions with Bogus and Microsoft.Data.SqlClient which is most likely used to work with json data.

Is there a tool that could be used to generate fake unit test cases automatically for code coverage? (read description before downvoting)
In terms of generating test cases, I've come across this before: https://github.com/bchavez/Bogus

Help me find this library
I used a .Net library a few years ago to create random text for a bunch of fake email bodies. It wasn't "lorem ipsum" type text, but full sentences and paragraphs. It would produce text that sounded like it came from a bullshit consulting handbook, or an intentionally obtuse technical description....things like, "Though vague in purpose the participant reality substituted reactional nature while in strongest thought vertices coincided with ...." and so on. I think it was somehow tied to Bogus but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Anyone able to help me out here?

Some useful Libraries for .NET projects
Bogus Github Nuget: Install-Package Bogus -Version 33.1.1
-
My first NuGet package: Fluent Random Picker
Seems like a fun package but I prefer Bogus
-
String similarity search and fast LIKE operator using pg_trgm
I inserted 10M rows of fake data generated by Bogus into the table. You can download the dump here.
What are some alternatives?
AutoFixture - AutoFixture is an open source library for .NET designed to minimize the 'Arrange' phase of your unit tests in order to maximize maintainability. Its primary goal is to allow developers to focus on what is being tested rather than how to setup the test scenario, by making it easier to create object graphs containing test data.
Moq - Repo for managing Moq 4.x
faker-cs - C# port of the Ruby Faker gem (http://faker.rubyforge.org/)
NSubstitute - A friendly substitute for .NET mocking libraries.
NBuilder - Rapid generation of test objects in .NET
GenFu - GenFu is a library you can use to generate realistic test data. It is composed of several property fillers that can populate commonly named properties through reflection using an internal database of values or randomly created data. You can override any of the fillers, give GenFu hints on how to fill them.
Fluent Assertions - A very extensive set of extension methods that allow you to more naturally specify the expected outcome of a TDD or BDD-style unit tests. Targets .NET Framework 4.7, as well as .NET Core 2.1, .NET Core 3.0, .NET 6, .NET Standard 2.0 and 2.1. Supports the unit test frameworks MSTest2, NUnit3, XUnit2, MSpec, and NSpec3.
xUnit - xUnit.net is a free, open source, community-focused unit testing tool for .NET.
NUnit - NUnit 3 Framework
