Unit Testing - Use of Structuremap with MOQ - unit-testing

Question

I want generic/oneline statements for structuremap configuration . please see the following code and suggest the changes :
Structuremap configuration class :
class StructureMapTestConfigurationRegistry : Registry
{
/// <summary>
/// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="DependencyConfigurationRegistry"/> class.
/// </summary>
public StructureMapTestConfigurationRegistry()
{
For<Repository.IRepository<Report>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<Report>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<RelatedContent>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<RelatedContent>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<Tags>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<Tags>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<ArticleTag>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<ArticleTag>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<ReferenceBookTag>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<ReferenceBookTag>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<EventsTag>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<EventsTag>.RepositoryMockSetup());
For<Repository.IRepository<CountryFactfileTag>>().Use(MockObjectGenerator<CountryFactfileTag>.RepositoryMockSetup());
}
BootStrapper Class :
public static class TestBootstrapper
{
public static void TestConfigureStructureMap()
{
ObjectFactory.Container.Dispose();
ObjectFactory.Initialize(o => o.AddRegistry(new StructureMapTestConfigurationRegistry()));
ObjectFactory.Container.AssertConfigurationIsValid();
}
}
MockObjectGenerator Class :
public static class MockObjectGenerator<TEntity> where TEntity : class
{
private static List<TEntity> DummyTable
{
get
{
return MockEntities.GetData<TEntity>();
}
}
public static IRepository<TEntity> RepositoryMockSetup()
{
Mock<IRepository<TEntity>> repository = new Mock<IRepository<TEntity>>(MockBehavior.Strict);
repository.Setup(o => o.Fetch(It.IsAny<Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>>>())).Returns((Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> i) => DummyTable.Where(i.Compile()).ToList());
repository.Setup(o => o.Create(It.IsAny<IEnumerable<TEntity>>())).Callback<IEnumerable<TEntity>>(items => DummyTable.AddRange(items));
repository.Setup(o => o.Delete(It.IsAny<TEntity>())).Callback<TEntity>(item => DummyTable.Remove(item));
}
}
**Mock Entities Class :**
public static class MockEntities
{
public static Dictionary<string, dynamic> MockData = new Dictionary<string, dynamic>();
public static void LoadData()
{
MockData.Add(typeof(CMSModel.Article).Name, ArticleTestData.GetTestRecords());
MockData.Add(typeof(CMSModel.ArticleTag).Name, RelatedArticleContentTestData.GetTestRecords());
}
public static List<T> GetData<T>() where T : class
{
return (List<T>)MockData[typeof(T).Name];
}
}
Note :
This has been done so that in actual unit test , We dont have to write setup methods since that is done while creating dependent object using structuremap.
It works fine, but I want to refactor the configuration file code to generic
I have writen it for implentation like this :
For(typeof(Repository.IRepository<>)).Use(typeof(Repository.Repository<>));
is it possible for unit test configuration ?

Answer 1

It is possible, though you'd need to specify all types entity types that are going to be used and pass them as Types. And you'll need to use non-generic version of functions (to be able to write For(type) instead of For). That way all your functions would work only on type variables and would look like simple methods.
