NSubstitute ILogger .NET Core

问题

I am trying to write unit tests around my exception handling so that I can verify the my logger is properly logging the exception. I am using NSubstitute as a mocking framework and Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger I have to following for my test:

[Fact]
public void LogsExcpetionWhenErrorOccursInCreate()
{
   var newUser = new UserDataModel
   {
      FirstName = "Rick",
      MiddleName = "Jason",
      LastName = "Grimes",
      Email = "rick.grimes@thedead.com",
      Created = new DateTime(2007, 8, 15)
   };
   var exception = new Exception("Test Exception");
   // configure InsertOne to throw a generic excpetion
   _mongoContext.InsertOne(newUser).Returns(x => { throw exception; });

   try
   {
      _collection.Create(newUser);
   }
   catch
   {
      // validate that the logger logs the exception as an error
      _logger.Received().LogError(exception.Message);
   }
}

to test the logging in the following method:

public UserDataModel Create(UserDataModel user)
{
     try
     {
          return MongoContext.InsertOne(user);                
     }
     catch(Exception e)
     {
           _logger?.LogError(e.Message);
           throw new DataAccessException("An error occurred while attempting to create a user.", e);
      }

}

My test fails with the following error:

Message: NSubstitute.Exceptions.ReceivedCallsException : Expected to receive a call matching:
    Log<Object>(Error, 0, Test Exception, <null>, Func<Object, Exception, String>)
Actually received no matching calls.
Received 1 non-matching call (non-matching arguments indicated with '*' characters):
    Log<Object>(Error, 0, *Test Exception*, <null>, Func<Object, Exception, String>)

I'm not sure why this is failing because even in then error message the calls are the same.

Thanks in advance!

Update:

Here is the constructor for the test, this is where I am injecting the logger mock:

public UserCollectionTest()
{
   _mongoContext = Substitute.For<IMongoContext<UserDataModel>>();
   _logger = Substitute.For<ILogger>();
   // create UserCollection with our mock client
   _collection = new UserCollection(_mongoContext, _logger);
}

LogError is not a ILogger method, so when you try to check that this method was called with certain parameters NSubstitute tries to handle it somehow(I do not know how exactly) and fails.

The code of LogError extension method is:

public static void LogError(this ILogger logger, string message, params object[] args)
{
  if (logger == null)
    throw new ArgumentNullException("logger");
  logger.Log<object>(LogLevel.Error, (EventId) 0, (object) new FormattedLogValues(message, args), (Exception) null, LoggerExtensions._messageFormatter);
}

So you have to check that Log method was called.

I simplified your example a bit. I think idea should be clear.

public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        var logger = Substitute.For<ILogger>();
        try
        {
            Create(logger);
        }
        catch
        {
            logger.CheckErrorMessage("My Message");
        }
    }

    public string Create(ILogger logger)
    {
        try
        {
            throw new Exception("My Message");
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            logger?.LogError(e.Message);
            throw new Exception("An error occurred while attempting to create a user.", e);
        }
    }
}

public static class TestExtensions
{
    public static void CheckErrorMessage(this ILogger logger, string message)
    {
        logger.Received().Log(
            LogLevel.Error,
            Arg.Any<EventId>(),
            Arg.Is<object>(o => o.ToString() == message),
            null,
            Arg.Any<Func<object, Exception, string>>());
    }
}
