Assert IEnumerables

Question

As unit testing is not used in our firm, I\'m teaching myself to unit test my own code. I\'m using the standard .net test framework for some really basic unit testing.

I don't know which "standard .net test framework" you're referring to, but if it's Visual Studio Team System Unit testing stuff you could use CollectionAssert.

Your test would be like this:

CollectionAssert.AreEqual(ExpectedList, ActualList, "...");

Update: I forgot CollectionAssert needs an ICollection interface, so you'll have to call ActualList.ToList() to get it to compile. Returning the IEnumerable is a good thing, so don't change that just for the tests.
