I am using NUnit to run unit test.
I have been using test cases for a while but I needed to use multiple tests with date time.
I did not wanted to write a parsing string into date time.
My code generates html as you can see from code below.
My solution after while of reading documentation:
[Test, TestCaseSource(typeof(NewsHtmlHelperTests), "DisplayRelatedUpdateLinkTestSources")]
public void DisplayRelatedUpdateLinkTests(string sourcePath, string articlePath, string name, DateTime createdDate, MvcHtmlString expected)
{
var actual = NewsHelper.DisplayRelatedUpdateLink(null, sourcePath, articlePath, name, createdDate);
Assert.AreEqual(expected.ToString(),actual.ToString());
}
public static IEnumerable DisplayRelatedUpdateLinkTestSources
{
get
{
yield return new TestCaseData("/test", "/test", "Test Article", new DateTime(2012, 05, 28),
new MvcHtmlString("
28 May Test Article"));
yield return new TestCaseData("/test", "/test/Different", "Test Article Name", new DateTime(2012, 10, 21),
new MvcHtmlString("
21 Oct Test Article Name"));
yield return new TestCaseData("/testing", "/test", "Test Article", new DateTime(2012, 09, 18),
new MvcHtmlString("
18 Sep Test Article"));
yield return new TestCaseData("/News/Article1", "/News/Article1", "Test Article", new DateTime(2012, 06, 05),
new MvcHtmlString("
5 Jun Test Article"));
yield return new TestCaseData("/", "/Hello", "Test Article", new DateTime(2013, 08, 25),
new MvcHtmlString("
25 Aug Test Article"));
yield return new TestCaseData("/Snipe", "/Snipe", "Sniper in London", new DateTime(2011, 05, 15),
new MvcHtmlString("
15 May Sniper in London"));
}
}
