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

A blogged a while ago about a problem faking multiple SPList with Typemock Isolator in a single test. With the release of Typemock Isolator 7.0.4.0 you no longer have to use the workaround I documented.

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()
4: {
5:  var fakeWeb = Isolate.Fake.Instance<SPWeb>();

7: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => SPControl.GetContextWeb(null)).WillReturn(fakeWeb);
8: 
9: // return value for 1st call
10: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeWeb.Lists["Centre Locations"].Items).WillReturnCollectionValuesOf(CreateCentreList());
11: // return value for all other calls
12: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeWeb.Lists["Map Zoom Areas"].Items).WillReturnCollectionValuesOf(CreateZoomAreaList());
13: }
14: 
15: private static List<SPListItem> CreateZoomAreaList()
16: {
17: var fakeZoomAreas = new List<SPListItem>();
18: fakeZoomAreas.Add(CreateZoomAreaSPListItem("London", 51.49275, -0.137722222, 2, 14));
19: return fakeZoomAreas;
20: }
21: 
22: private static List<SPListItem> CreateCentreList()
23: {
24: var fakeSites = new List<SPListItem>();
25: fakeSites.Add(CreateCentreSPListItem("Aberdeen ", "1 The Road, Aberdeen ", "Aberdeen@test.com", "www.Aberdeen.test.com", "1111", "2222", 57.13994444, -2.113333333));
26: fakeSites.Add(CreateCentreSPListItem("Altrincham ", "1 The Road, Altrincham ", "Altrincham@test.com", "www.Altrincham.test.com", "3333", "4444", 53.38977778, -2.349916667));
27: return fakeSites;
28: }
29: 
30: private static SPListItem CreateCentreSPListItem(string title, string address, string email, string url, string telephone, string fax, double lat, double lng)
31: {
32: var fakeItem = Isolate.Fake.Instance<SPListItem>();
33: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Title"]).WillReturn(title);
34: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Address"]).WillReturn(address);
35: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Email Address"]).WillReturn(email);
36: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Site URL"]).WillReturn(url);
37: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Telephone"]).WillReturn(telephone);
38: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Fax"]).WillReturn(fax);
39: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Latitude"]).WillReturn(lat.ToString());
40: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Longitude"]).WillReturn(lng.ToString());
41: return fakeItem;
42: }
43: 
44: private static SPListItem CreateZoomAreaSPListItem(string areaName, double lat, double lng, double radius, int zoom)
45: {
46: var fakeItem = Isolate.Fake.Instance<SPListItem>();
47: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Title"]).WillReturn(areaName);
48: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Latitude"]).WillReturn(lat.ToString());
49: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Longitude"]).WillReturn(lng.ToString());
50: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Radius"]).WillReturn(radius.ToString());
51: Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeItem["Zoom"]).WillReturn(zoom.ToString());
52: return fakeItem;
53: }
54: 
55: }

A check of the returned values shows

  • web.Lists["Centre Locations"].Items.Count returns 2
  • web.Lists["Map Zoom Areas"].Items.Count) returns 1
