By the end of this TDD book, you'll have become confident enough to champion a TDD implementation. You'll also be equipped with a business and technical case for rolling out TDD or unit testing to present to your management and colleagues. What you will learnWriting unit tests with xUnit and getting to grips with dependency injectionImplementing test doubles and mocking with NSubstituteUsing the TDD style for unit testing in conjunction with DDD and best practicesMixing TDD with the ASP.NET API, Entity Framework, and databasesMoving to the next level by exploring continuous integration with GitHubGetting introduced to advanced mocking scenariosChampioning your team and company for introducing TDD and unit testingWho this book is for This book is for mid to senior-level .NET developers looking to use the potential of TDD to develop high-quality software. Basic knowledge of OOP and C# programming concepts is assumed but no knowledge of TDD or unit testing is expected. The book provides in-depth coverage of all the concepts of TDD and unit testing, making it an excellent guide for developers who want to build a TDD-based application from scratch or planning to introduce unit testing into their organization. |

dotnet add project to solution: Essential C# 7.0 Mark Michaelis, 2018-06-17 The Comprehensive, Expert Guide to C# Language Programming “This book has been a classic for years, and remains one of the most venerable and trusted titles in the world of C# content, and probably far beyond! . . . Mark is super smart, insists on understanding everything to the core, and has phenomenal insight into how things affect real developers. . . . He goes right to the essence and communicates with great integrity—no sugarcoating—and has a keen eye for practical value and real-world problems.” –Mads Torgersen, C# Program Manager, Microsoft Essential C# 7.0 is a well-organized, no-fluff guide to C# 7.0 for programmers at all levels of experience. Reflecting the most important C# features from 3.0 through 7.0 and including modern programming patterns, it will help you write code that’s simple, powerful, robust, secure, and maintainable. Author Mark Michaelis is a world-class C# expert: a long-time Microsoft MVP and Regional Director who also has served on Microsoft’s C# design review team. He presents a comprehensive tutorial and reference for the entire language, including expert coverage of key C# 7.0 enhancements, C# 7.0’s use with .NET Core/.NET Standard, and cross-platform compilation. He illustrates key C# constructs with succinct examples, and presents best-practice coding guidelines. To help you maintain existing code, separate indexes provide version-specific answers for C# 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0, and visual icons show when each language innovation was introduced. Make the most of C# 7.0 enhancements, including tuples, deconstructors, pattern matching, local functions, and ref returns Work efficiently with C# data types, operators, control flow, methods, and parameters Write more robust code with C# object-oriented constructs Implement reliable, effective exception handling Reduce code complexity with generics, delegates, lambda expressions, and events Leverage advanced dynamic and declarative programming techniques Query diverse data collections using LINQ with query expressions Create custom collections that operate against business objects Access .NET collections via collection interfaces and standard query operators Master multithreading and synchronization, including the async/await paradigm Optimize performance and interoperability with P/Invoke and unsafe code Run your code on Linux or macOS with C# 7.0 cross-platform compilation Includes C# 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 language enhancements This guide offers you a complete foundation for successful development with modern versions of the C# language in any project or environment. |
dotnet add project to solution: Building Web Applications with Visual Studio 2017 Philip Japikse, Kevin Grossnicklaus, Ben Dewey, 2017-07-08 Learn how to build web applications from three Microsoft MVPs. After building the data application layer using Entity Framework Core and a RESTful service using ASP.NET Core, you will then build the client side web application three ways: first, using ASP.NET Core, then using Angular 2, and, finally, using React. You will be able to compare and contrast these UI frameworks and select the best one for your needs. .NET Core is a complete rewrite of the popular .NET and its related frameworks. While many concepts are similar between .NET Core and the .NET 4.6 framework, there are revolutionary changes as well, including updates to Entity Framework Core and ASP.NET Core. The first section of this book covers the three main parts of building applications with C#: Entity Framework, ASP.NET Core Services, and ASP.NET Core Web Applications. There is also an explosion in popularity of JavaScript frameworks for client side development, and the authors cover two of the most popular UI frameworks. Start with TypeScript for developing clean JavaScript, along with a client side build tool such as Gulp, Grunt, and WebPack. Using the same data access layer and RESTful service from the .NET Core application, you can rebuild the UI using Angular 2. Then, repeat the process using React, for a true comparison of building client side applications using ASP.NET Core, Angular 2, and React. What You'll Learn Understand the fundamentals of .NET Core and what that means to the traditional .NET developer Build a data access layer with Entity Framework Core, a RESTful service with ASP.NET Core MVC, and a website with ASP.NET Core MVC and Bootstrap Automate many build tasks with client side build utilities Who This Book Is For Intermediate to advanced .NET developers |
dotnet add project to solution: SignalR on .NET 6 - the Complete Guide Fiodar Sazanavets, 2022-04-12 Are you a web developer or do you write Internet of things (IoT) software? If so, you would know that many web and IoT development projects these days require the ability to establish a persistent connection between a client and a server without having to keep sending repeated requests from the client. For example, a user of a live chat would want to know in real time that they have received a new message. Or an IoT device may need to be sent a command in real time. As you may also know, such functionality may be hard to implement. However, if you can build your server-side application on ASP.NET Core, there is a way to make this whole process easy. There is a library called SignalR, which is included in ASP.NET Core. SignalR doesn't only enable you to achieve real-time two-way communication between applications. It also substantially simplifies the process of enabling all of this in the code. Under the hood, it uses various two-way communication protocols, such as WebSocket. However, it abstracts away all the implementation complexity of these protocols. To the developer, working with this library will mostly consists of writing simple and easily readable statements In this book, we will cover everything you would need to know about using SignalR on .NET 6, so you will see how to integrate it with the the latest features on ASP.NET Core 6 and C# 10. We will cover much more than you can find in the official documentation of the library. For example, you will learn how to connect a plain WebSocket client to it, which may help you to write a client in a language that isn't officially supported. Likewise, we will cover many concepts that aren't directly related to SignalR, but are important to its production-ready implementation. These would include single sign-on, certificate authorization, logging, metrics and scaling out. By the end of this book, you would be able to identify the situations where SignalR is the best tool for the job and you would be fully able to implement it. |
