Testing Exceptions in Nunit 4.7

-
I am getting in TDD a lot, and of course, when thinking in border cases, you'll end up throwing exceptions, And you'd want to see ith they get thrown. With Nunit 4.7 the thing is that If, for example, you're testing that some parameter is null, when you decorate your test with [ExpectedException] it eventually gets thrown, but You'll never know what piece of code actually did it... So, I created this little R# snippet to test excxeptions in a more granular way: [Test] public void $TestName$() { try { $Code$ } catch (Exception e) { Assert.That(e, Is.TypeOf(typeof($ExpectedException$))); $END$ return; } Assert.Fail("Did Not Throw the Exception."); } For example, if you want to test if a parameter is null before you excercise some code, you could have a test like this: [Test] public void Intermediary_ParamOneCannotBeNull() { try { new Intermediary(null, null); } catch(Exception e) { Assert.That(e, Is.TypeOf(typeof(ArgumentNullE...

Debugging Sharepoint Applications

-
When developing sharepoint apps, it becomes a pain in the neck to know what process to lint to (via debug-attach process) because it usually has many w3wp process running, and knowing which is the one you need is usually a trial-and-error thing. Spence Harbar has a very handy application called Application Pool Manager which lets you do several things: 1. Reset application pools, which is faster than iisreset. 2. Show the list of application pools running 3. Establish which application pool has which process ID associated, and refresh it if someone else recycled them (i.e. VSeWSS) This way, by just having a look at the tool's menu, you can know for sure what process ID you need to attach to!

Hi. In Dec/january, working with Zemoga, I got a Mac. I loved the OSX. hated not having right-clic on the trackpad, the different keys for common Office tasks, different default behaviours, but it was a nice experience. I prefer Win though, and since XP is so nineties, I upgraded to Vista busoiness 64 bit. In order to be more Mac-alike, I found some tools very nice: ObjectDock It emulates MacOSX toolbar very well..... I like it, and I'll like it more when it supports X64 OS http://stardock.com Switcher This tool makes switching application just like in Mac. small thumbnails of all your windows, and you sleect the one yo like.... http://insentient.net/Switcher/Overview.html with these apps, I feel I have a Next-get OS UI!!! Let's see what Win7 can add to this....
