SparkyTestHelpers.Moq.Fluent 1.4.6

Moq Fluent Assertions syntax helpers

see also:

• SparkyTestHelpers.Moq
• the rest of the "Sparky suite" of .NET utilities and test helpers

This package provides Fluent Assertions extension methods for Moq, “the most popular and friendly mocking framework for .NET”.

The "out of the box" syntax:

_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.Once);
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.AtLeastOnce);
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.AtMostOnce);
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.Exactly(3));
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.Between(2, 5));
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.AtLeast(2));
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.AtMost(5));
_mock.Verify(x => x.Foo(), Times.Never);

...can be coded as:

_mock.Should().HaveCallsTo(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveOneCallTo(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveAtLeastOneCallTo(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveAtMostOneCallTo(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveCallCount(3).To(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveCallCount(2, 5).To(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveCallCount(2).OrMore().To(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().HaveCallCount(5).OrLess().To(x => x.Foo());
_mock.Should().NoCallsTo(x => x.Foo());

...or as:

_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveBeenCalled();
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveBeenCalledOnce();
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveBeenCalledAtLeastOnce();
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveBeenCalledAtMostOnce();
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveCallCount(3);
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveCallCountBetween(2, 5);
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveCallCountOfAtLeast(2);
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().HaveCallCountOfAtMost(5);
_mock.Method(x => x.Foo()).Should().NotHaveBeenCalled();

There are property Get and Set equivalents for all of the ".Method ... .Should... .HaveBeen" methods listed above:

_mock.Get(x => x.Bar).Should().HaveBeenCalledOnce();
_mock.Set(x => x.Bar = "Baz").Should().HaveBeenCalledOnce();

“Any” - Syntax alternative to “It.IsAny<T>”

This package incorporates SparkyTestHelpers.Moq.Core, which enables simplified "Any" syntax:

_mock.Setup(x => x.DoSomething(
    It.IsAny<string>(), It.IsAny<int>(), It.IsAny<IEnumerable<int>>())
    .Returns(true);

...can be simplified to:

using SparkyTestHelpers.Moq;
. . .
_mock.Setup(x => x.DoSomething(
    Any.String, Any.Int, Any.IEnumerable<int>()) 
    .Returns(true);

"Any" members:

• Any.Action
• Any.Action<T>
• Any.Action<T1, T2>
• Any.Action<T1, T2, T3>
• Any.Array<T>
• Any.Boolean
• Any.Dictionary<TKey, TValue>
• Any.DateTime
• Any.Decimal
• Any.Double
• Any.Func<T>
• Any.Func<T1, T2>
• Any.Func<T1, T2, T3>
• Any.Guid
• Any.IEnumerable<T>
• Any.InstanceOf<T> (Any.One<T> is a "synonym" for Any.InstanceOf<T>)
• Any.IList<T>
• Any.Int
• Any.IQueryable<T?
• Any.KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>
• Any.Lazy<T>
• Any.List<T>
• Any.Long
• Any.Nullable<T>
• Any.Object
• Any.Short
• Any.Single
• Any.String
• Any.TimeSpan
• Any.Tuple<T1, T2>
• Any.Type
• Any.UInt
• Any.ULong
• Any.UShort

mock.Where extension method

...provides an alternate syntax for "It.Is":

using SparkyTestHelpers.Moq;
. . .
// sad:
_mock.Setup(x => x.Foo(It.Is<int>(i => i % 2 == 0))).Returns(true);
// rad!:
_mock.Setup(x => x.Foo(Any.Int.Where(i => i % 2 == 0))).Returns(true);

Reduce code duplication

The Method, Get and Set extensions return their input expressions/actions, which can be used to reduce code duplication.

For example, this test:

// Arrange:
_mock.Setup(x => x.Foo(
    Any.String, Any.Int, Any.InstanceOf<Bar>())
    ).Returns(true);

// Act:
subjectUnderTest.Foo("yo", 5, myBar);

//Assert:
_mock.VerifyOneCallTo(x => x.Foo(
    Any.String, Any.Int, Any.InstanceOf<Bar>()));

...where you have to code the same “x ⇒ x.Foo(Any.String, Any.Int, Any.InstanceOf<Bar>()” expression for both the .Setup and .Verify calls  -  can be simplified to:

// Arrange:
var fooCall = _mock.Method(x => x.Foo(Any.String, Any.Int, Any.InstanceOf<Bar>())).Expression;

_mock.Setup(fooCall).Returns(true);

// Act:
subjectUnderTest.Foo("yo", 5, myBar);

// Assert:
_mock.Method(fooCall).Should().HaveBeenCalledOnce();
