NUnit TestCase with Generics

Question

Is there any way to pass generic types using a TestCase to a test in NUnit?

This is what I would like to do but the syntax is not correct...

Answer 1

As might be testing with generic functions that return objects?. Example:

public Empleado TestObjetoEmpleado(Empleado objEmpleado) 
{
    return objEmpleado; 
}

Thanks

I slightly modified the TestCaseGenericAttribute somebody posted here:

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class GenericTestCaseAttribute : TestCaseAttribute, ITestBuilder
{
    public GenericTestCaseAttribute(params object[] arguments)
        : base(arguments)
    {
    }

    IEnumerable<TestMethod> ITestBuilder.BuildFrom(IMethodInfo method, Test suite)
    {
        if (!method.IsGenericMethodDefinition) return base.BuildFrom(method, suite);
        var numberOfGenericArguments = method.GetGenericArguments().Length;
        var typeArguments = Arguments.Take(numberOfGenericArguments).OfType<Type>().ToArray();

        if (typeArguments.Length != numberOfGenericArguments)
        {
            var parms = new TestCaseParameters { RunState = RunState.NotRunnable };
            parms.Properties.Set("_SKIPREASON", $"Arguments should have {typeArguments} type elements");
            return new[] { new NUnitTestCaseBuilder().BuildTestMethod(method, suite, parms) };
        }

        var genMethod = method.MakeGenericMethod(typeArguments);
        return new TestCaseAttribute(Arguments.Skip(numberOfGenericArguments).ToArray()).BuildFrom(genMethod, suite);
    }
}

This version expects one list of all parameters, starting with the type parameters, starting with the type paramters. Usage:

    [Test]
    [GenericTestCase(typeof(IMailService), typeof(MailService))]
    [GenericTestCase(typeof(ILogger), typeof(Logger))]
    public void ValidateResolution<TQuery>(Type type)
    {
        // arrange
        var sut = new AutoFacMapper();

        // act
        sut.RegisterMappings();
        var container = sut.Build();

        // assert
        var item = sut.Container.Resolve<TQuery>();
        Assert.AreEqual(type, item.GetType());
    }

You can make custom GenericTestCaseAttribute

[Test]
[GenericTestCase(typeof(MyClass) ,"Some response", TestName = "Test1")]
[GenericTestCase(typeof(MyClass1) ,"Some response", TestName = "Test2")]
public void MapWithInitTest<T>(string expectedResponse)
{
    // Arrange

    // Act
    var response = MyClassUnderTest.MyMethod<T>();

    // Assert
    Assert.AreEqual(expectedResponse, response);
}

Here is implementation of GenericTestCaseAttribute

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class GenericTestCaseAttribute : TestCaseAttribute, ITestBuilder
{
    private readonly Type _type;
    public GenericTestCaseAttribute(Type type, params object[] arguments) : base(arguments)
    {
        _type = type;
    }

    IEnumerable<TestMethod> ITestBuilder.BuildFrom(IMethodInfo method, Test suite)
    {
        if (method.IsGenericMethodDefinition && _type != null)
        {
            var gm = method.MakeGenericMethod(_type);
            return BuildFrom(gm, suite);
        }
        return BuildFrom(method, suite);
    }
}
