LPT: There is a library called Bogus, you should know it exists much earlier than I did in my career.

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/dotnet

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • AutoBogus

    A C# library complementing the Bogus generator by adding auto creation and population capabilities.

  • Just be careful, this is an outstanding bug in this library that's been going on for years. If you try to dummy up an object with a large amount of properties, it ends up in some sort of deadlock (or just takes an extremely large amount of time). People seem to have also reproduced it with properties marked virtual. I sometimes deal with 3rd party vendor libraries and it would had been nice to be able to use this with the worst offenders.

  • fsharp-hedgehog-xunit

    Hedgehog with convenience attributes for xUnit.net

  • Disclaimer: I maintain Hedgehog.XUnit.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • fsharp-hedgehog

    Release with confidence, state-of-the-art property testing for .NET.

  • Dotnet has FsCheck and Hedgehog. Both are primarily aimed at F#, but C# is supported as well.

  • Json.NET

    Json.NET is a popular high-performance JSON framework for .NET

  • Been using this for some time now. Along with AutoMapper, FluentValidation, and Newtonsoft's Json.Net are some of the packages/libs that I used most frequently.
