Remarks

Implements: Process Test Fixture

Logic:

Copy imageCopy Code
            [SetUp]
            {TestSequence}
            [TearDown]

This fixture implements the Process Test Fixture as described in the CodeProject article from Marc Clifton.

In this implementation, reverse traversal is not implemented. A process can be seen as a linear graph, a very simple model. If you need more evolved models, use Model Based Testing.

Examples

This is the example for the CodeProject article adapted to MbUnit.

Copy imageCopy Code
[ProcessTestFixture]
public class POSequenceTest
{	
	...
	[TestSequence(1)]
	public void POConstructor()
	{
		po=new PurchaseOrder();
		Assert.AreEqual(po.Number,"", "Number not initialized.");
		Assert.AreEqual(po.PartCount,0, "PartCount not initialized.");
		Assert.AreEqual(po.ChargeCount,0, "ChargeCount not initialized.");
		Assert.AreEqual(po.Invoice,null, "Invoice not initialized.");
		Assert.AreEqual(po.Vendor,null, "Vendor not initialized.");
	}

	[TestSequence(2)]
	public void VendorConstructor()
	{
		vendor=new Vendor();
		Assert.AreEqual(vendor.Name,"", "Name is not an empty string.");
		Assert.AreEqual(vendor.PartCount,0, "PartCount is not zero.");
	}
	...

Use ProcessTestFixtureAttribute to mark a class as process test fixture and use the TestSequenceAttribute attribute to create the order of the process. The fixture also supports SetUp and TearDown methods.
