I was looking at nuget and wanted to import moq when I noticed AutoFixture AutoMoq. I see that AutoFixture is to help write TDD faster but I can't find any examples of AutoMoq and how it is different then AutoFixture.
Can someone point me to this AutoMoq so I can see what it is doing.
AutoFixture is an open source library for . NET designed to minimize the 'Arrange' phase of your unit tests in order to maximize maintainability.
AutoMoqer is an "auto-mocking" container that creates objects for you. Just tell it what class to create and it will create it.
AutoFixture is a tool designed to make Test-Driven Development more productive and unit tests more refactoring-safe.
The AutoMoqCustomization is the core of the integration of AutoFixture with Moq. By adding an instance of this class to the fixture, requests for non-concrete types will be handled by Moq. var fixture = new Fixture();
In short, AutoFixture.AutoMoq is an extension that turns AutoFixture into an Auto-Mocking Container using the Moq dynamic mock library.
There's also a similar extension for AutoFixture that enables auto-mocking with Rhino Mocks.
