    This library extends the traditional assertions provided by frameworks like MSTest, NUnit, or XUnit by offering a more extensive set of extension methods. Fluent Assertions supports a wide range of types like collections, strings, and objects and even allows for more advanced assertions like throwing exceptions.

    Next, you need to install a testing framework that will be used for performing unit testing in your project. Several testing frameworks are available depending on the programming language used to create an application. For example, JUnit is commonly used for Java apps, pytest for Python apps, NUnit for .NET apps, Jest for JavaScript apps, and so on. We’ll use the Jest framework for this tutorial since we are using JavaScript.
  • Setting up a simple testing project with C#

    At this point you're going to see a familiar screen asking you to select a project. Here we're looking for a test project. By default, Visual Studio gives you access to 3 different testing frameworks based on your choice of project. These are MSTest, XUnit and NUnit. Ultimately, all 3 of these testing accomplish the same thing, and I've worked with all of them at various points in my career. The difference is mainly in exact syntax and documentation. Although, it's generally considered that MSTest is a little "older" than NUnit or XUnit, so I tend to see it less now. For the purposes of this demo, I'm going to go with NUnit:

  • Creating Your Own Custom Attributes in C# and Retrieving Their Values
    3 projects | dev.to | 17 Dec 2022
    I was trying to think of an example of where C# attributes might be used in every day life and then it dawned on me: unit testing! If you have ever used a unit test framework such as MSTest, NUnit or xUnit, you will have used attributes in C# to define the classes and methods that you would like the test framework to execute. This is just one example of how you can use attributes to assign metadata to elements of your code.
