How can I create and populate my mock classes with Autofixture?

Question

Currently I\'m using EF6 to implement my repositories inside a UnitOfWork. I also have created an In-Memory mock implementations (MockUnitOfWork & MockRepository) so that I

You're trying to do functional testing here, so it would be wise to have a functional database.

EF can recreate and destroy your database in your setup and teardown methods with a test connection string. This would provide a real functional testing environment for your tests to operate against mimicking the real environment.

Ex:

        [TestFixtureSetUp]
        public static void SetupFixture() //create database
        {
            using (var context = new XEntities())
            {
                context.Setup();
            }
        }

        [TestFixtureTearDown]
        public void TearDown() //drop database
        {
            using (var context = new XEntities())
            {
                context.Database.Delete();
            }
        }

        [SetUp]
        public void Setup() //Clear entities before each test so they are independent
        {
            using (var context = new XEntities())
            {
                foreach (var tableRow in context.Table)
                {
                    context.Table.Remove(tableRow);
                }
                context.SaveChanges();
            }
        }
