List.Contains(item) with generic list of objects

Question

If you have a List how do you return the item if a specified property or collection of properties exists?

public class Testing
{
    public string value1 { get; set; }
    public string value2 { get; set; }
    public int value3 { get; set; }
}
public class TestingList
{
    public void TestingNewList()
    {
        var testList = new List<Testing>
                           {
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 1", value2 = "Value2 - 1", value3 = 3},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 2", value2 = "Value2 - 2", value3 = 2},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 3", value2 = "Value2 - 3", value3 = 3},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 4", value2 = "Value2 - 4", value3 = 4},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 5", value2 = "Value2 - 5", value3 = 5},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 6", value2 = "Value2 - 6", value3 = 6},
                               new Testing {value1 = "Value1 - 7", value2 = "Value2 - 7", value3 = 7}
                           };

        //use testList.Contains to see if value3 = 3
        //use testList.Contains to see if value3 = 2 and value1 = "Value1 - 2"


    }
}

Answer 1

You could use

testList.Exists(x=>x.value3 == 3)

Answer 2

If you're using .NET 3.5 or better, LINQ is the answer to this one:

testList.Where(t => t.value3 == 3);
testList.Where(t => t.value3 == 2 && t.value1 == "Value1 - 2");

If not using .NET 3.5 then you can just loop through and pick out the ones you want.
