TF900548 when using my Typemock 2012 TFS custom build activity
Sat, Mar 23 2013 16:52
Using the Typemock TFS 2012 Build activity I created I had started seen the error TF900548: An error occurred publishing the Visual Studio test results. Details: 'The following id must have a positive value: testRunId.' I thought it might be down to having patched our build boxes to TFS 2012 Update 1, maybe it needed to be rebuild due to some dependency... Read More...

Cannot run Microsoft Fakes based test if Typemock Isolator enabled
Sat, Mar 9 2013 9:07
With Microsoft Fakes moving to the Premium SKU of Visual Studio in 2012.2 ( CTP4 is now available ) more people will be looking at using them. I have just installed CTP4 and have seen a behaviour I don’t think I have not seen in the previous version of Visual Studio (I need to check because as well as CTP4  I have recently installed the new version of Typemock...

For those hard to mock moments - Microsoft Fakes or Typemock Isolator?
Tue, Feb 26 2013 13:29
About a year ago I wrote a post ‘ Now that VS11 has a fake library do I still need Typemock Isolator to fake out SharePoint? ’. Well this discussion becomes relevant for more people as with Visual Studio 2012.2 ( currently available as a CTP ) the Microsoft Fakes move from the Ultimate SKU to the Premium SKU . From my experience the Ultimate SKU is not present... Read More...

Release of Typemock Isolator Basic edition
Thu, Sep 27 2012 15:05
Some great news today from Typemock, there is now a free basic edition of Typemock Isolator. The addresses a key historic problem with Isolator, that of its cost when you don’t need the advanced features of Isolator all the time. Now if you need the cool advanced mocking features of Isolator, such as mocking sealed private classes, then the cost is not really... Read More...

Getting Typemock Isolator running within a TFS 2012 build – part 2
Fri, Aug 24 2012 9:05
I posted previously on getting Typemock 7.x running in a TFS 2012 RC build process . Well it seems the activities I previously published did not work on the TFS 2012 RTM build i.e if you do nothing other than upgrade your TFS server from RC to RTM a previously working build fails, no attempt was made to run any tests and I got the unhelpful error TF900546: An...

Getting Typemock Isolator running within a TFS 2012 build
Sat, Aug 4 2012 6:01
I have posted in the past about getting Typemock Isolator to function within the TFS build process . In TFS 2008 it was easy , you just ran a couple of MSBUILD tasks that started/stopped the Typemock Isolator inception process (the bit that does the magic other mocking frameworks cannot do). However with TFS 2010’s move to a windows workflow based build model... Read More...

Fix for problem faking two SPLists in a single unit test with Typemock Isolator has been released
Mon, Apr 2 2012 10:00

You can now use the code if the originally planned, and it works as expected 1: public partial class TestPage : System.Web.UI.Page 2: { 3: public TestPage()... Read More...

Now that VS11 has a fake library do I still need Typemock Isolator to fake out SharePoint?
Fri, Mar 23 2012 12:16
I have done posts in the past about how you can use Typemock Isolator to fake out SharePoint to speed design and testing . The  reason you need special tooling, beyond standard mocking frameworks like Rhino or MOQ, is that SharePoint has many sealed private classes with no public constructors. So in the past you only had two options: Typemock Isolator and... Read More...

Thu, Mar 22 2012 5:54
Whilst travelling I had neglected to post about the new release of Typemock Isolator Version 7 . This new release extends the range of the product to provide a variety of ‘test support tools’ that help you track down bugs sooner. However, the best new feature for me is that it allows support of historic versions of Isolator, this means you don’t have to upgrade... Read More...

Mon, Nov 21 2011 9:00
Typemock have recently released a new version of Isolator, 6.2. As well as the usual fixes and enhancements you would expect, this is the first version to support TFS 2010 team build out the box. Prior to this release Typemock supported MSBuild based TFS builds (2005/2008) but not the Windows Workflow based version in TFS 2010. The issue was that in TFS 2010... Read More...

Update on using Typemock Isolator to allow webpart development without a Sharepoint server
Tue, Sep 6 2011 16:56
I have in the past posted about developing SharePoint web parts without having to use a SharePoint server by using Typemock Isolator . This technique relies on using Cassini or IIS Express as the web server to host the aspx page that in turn contains the webpart. This is all well and good for SharePoint 2007, but we get a problem with SharePoint 2010 which seems... Read More...

Verifying non–public methods have been called using Typemock Isolator in VB.Net
Sat, Sep 3 2011 16:30
I am currently writing some training material for a client on mocking showing how life is so much easier if software is designed with testing in mind. As part of this material I showing that though we aim for nice design patterns which allow testing we have to deal with legacy systems that were not designed this way. However, there are tools that allow us to... Read More...
