Moles: Mocking the Un-Mockable

In this episode we are going to take at how to use Pex/Moles for .Net

Unit testing is great, but most free isolation frameworks require that your mocks implement an interface. But what do you do when the class you are trying to mock is static or sealed with no interface. If you can’t modify the class then your unit testing efforts are usually stuck. Moles, the new free isolation framework from Microsoft, supports mocking almost any CLR based class (including sealed and static classes).

Introduction to AutoMapper

In this episode we will take a look at how we can simplify our entity mapping by using AutoMapper.

AutoMapper uses a fluent configuration API to define an object-object mapping strategy. AutoMapper uses a convention-based matching algorithm to match up source to destination values. Currently, AutoMapper is geared towards model projection scenarios to flatten complex object models to DTOs and other simple objects, whose design is better suited for serialization, communication, messaging, or simply an anti-corruption layer between the domain and application layer.
