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.

Setting up a simple testing project with C#
In terms of mocking there are several frameworks you can use, but I've mainly relied on Moq and NSubstitute. Within this demo, I'm going to use NSubstitute as I've found it a little easier to use.

What if writing tests was a joyful experience
Or you just run into bullshit like https://github.com/Moq/moq4/issues/173
- Moq.NET Mocking framework [C#]

Dependency injection
Now to the real benefit of DI: If you are testing a method in your application that calls the ReservationRepository.GetReservation() method, you can use a library like Moq to simply "mock" a class that uses the IReservationRepository interface and define the return result of the GetReservation() method. Pass the mocked class into the constructor of the class you are testing.

A Tale of 2 Codebases (Part 2 of 4): Testability
Both projects use similar testing infrastructure. I write unit tests in C# using XUnit.net. I frequently use mock objects in testing, and MOQ is my tool of choice. I utilize continuous testing and coverage analysis through Rider. I do not have specific objectives for code coverage. When writing complicated algorithms, I frequently shoot for 100% coverage of the algorithm. I test simple properties inconsistently, and frequently do not test guard clauses.

What's your go-to unit testing tool?
But the reality is that I don't really write my tests with it. Toss on the MSTest attributes as needed of course. But all the testing code itself is FluentAssertions with a bit of Moq. (Though I find rarely need to use Moq/mocking anymore -- scandalous, I know.)

The Monad Invasion - Part 2: Monads in Action!
You probably noticed that .SetName() returns a Either. You may have come across Unit in libraries like MediatR or Language-Ext. It's a simple construct representing a type with only one possible value. We use it as a placeholder for operations that do not return a value but may return another state. In our example, .SetName() is a Command that does not return a value but may fail. Therefore, the monad Either carries two possible states: Right (without value) or Left (with an Error).

How small is the smallest .NET Hello World binary?
The widely used MediatR library[0] could be used to do that as well, just FYI.

CQRS: How to handle duplicate queries inside a CommandHandler
Hope this GH issue shed some light on why injecting handler inside another handler is not good https://github.com/jbogard/MediatR/issues/400

Easiest way to build the fastest REST API in C# and .NET 7 using CQRS
I gave it a go and I was impressed how easy and fast it was to set it all up. Since I'm not a big fan of REPR pattern almost all my projects are using CQRS pattern with a help of MediatR ](https://github.com/jbogard/MediatR) I immediately started going over something similar that Fast Endpoints offer which is a command bus.

MVVM Question: How do you manage the interaction between Model and ViewModel?
I'd use a dedicated event bus based on Reactive Extensions or MediatR to publish domain events from your domain services. This probably doesn't solve all your ViewModel update problems as is, maybe you need to revise the granularity (maybe you can have smaller ViewModels that refresh single property that exposes the Model) and lifespan (sometimes you can create a ViewModel, make it perform it's task and then discard it completely) of your ViewModels.
-
Async Methods after setting a property.
If you're finding yourself in a situation where you need to turn this behavior into a pattern because there are a lot of View Models that need to execute async business logic in response to some changes, I'd go with something like MediatR or Reactive Extensions. The idea is, again, that some other, probably business-level, component listens to changes in a decoupled way (that means it doesn't subscribe directly to your View Model, but to an event bus instead). View Model publishes change events to the event bus, and business-component reacts to these events by executing the business logic.

I don't get why I should use Redux
What people really want is to design the logic of an app independently from the component hierarchy. That means you need to store state somewhere other than the components and you need to dispatch events that are not attached to the component hierarchy. Also, a one way data flow has well known benefits as described by things like CQRS, RabbitMQ, and MediatR.

Polly - Polly is a .NET resilience and transient-fault-handling library that allows developers to express policies such as Retry, Circuit Breaker, Timeout, Bulkhead Isolation, and Fallback in a fluent and thread-safe manner. From version 6.0.1, Polly targets .NET Standard 1.1 and 2.0+.
AutoMoq - Auto mocking provider for Moq.
Brighter - A framework for building messaging apps with .NET and C#.
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.
ApiEndpoints - A project for supporting API Endpoints in ASP.NET Core web applications.
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.
