MSTest Testing Skill
Core Patterns
Basic Test
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
[TestClass]
public class CalculatorTests
{
private Calculator _calc;
[TestInitialize]
public void SetUp() => _calc = new Calculator();
[TestMethod]
public void Add_TwoNumbers_ReturnsSum()
{
Assert.AreEqual(5, _calc.Add(2, 3));
}
[TestMethod]
[ExpectedException(typeof(DivideByZeroException))]
public void Divide_ByZero_Throws()
{
_calc.Divide(10, 0);
}
}
Data-Driven Tests
[DataTestMethod]
[DataRow(2, 3, 5)]
[DataRow(-1, 1, 0)]
[DataRow(0, 0, 0)]
public void Add_Parameterized(int a, int b, int expected)
{
Assert.AreEqual(expected, _calc.Add(a, b));
}
[DataTestMethod]
[DynamicData(nameof(GetTestData), DynamicDataSourceType.Method)]
public void Add_DynamicData(int a, int b, int expected)
{
Assert.AreEqual(expected, _calc.Add(a, b));
}
private static IEnumerable<object[]> GetTestData()
{
yield return new object[] { 1, 2, 3 };
yield return new object[] { 10, -5, 5 };
}
Assertions
Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
Assert.AreNotEqual(unexpected, actual);
Assert.IsTrue(condition);
Assert.IsFalse(condition);
Assert.IsNull(obj);
Assert.IsNotNull(obj);
Assert.IsInstanceOfType(obj, typeof(MyClass));
Assert.ThrowsException<ArgumentException>(() => Method());
CollectionAssert.Contains(list, item);
CollectionAssert.AreEquivalent(expected, actual);
StringAssert.Contains(str, "substring");
StringAssert.StartsWith(str, "prefix");
StringAssert.Matches(str, new Regex(@"\d+"));
Lifecycle
[AssemblyInitialize] → Once per assembly (static)
[ClassInitialize] → Once per class (static)
[TestInitialize] → Before each test
[TestMethod] → Test
[TestCleanup] → After each test
[ClassCleanup] → Once after class (static)
[AssemblyCleanup] → Once after assembly (static)
Categories
[TestMethod, TestCategory("Smoke")]
public void QuickTest() { }
[TestMethod, Ignore("Bug #456")]
public void SkippedTest() { }
[TestMethod, Timeout(5000)]
public void TimedTest() { }
Setup: dotnet add package MSTest.TestFramework MSTest.TestAdapter Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk
Run: dotnet test or dotnet test --filter "TestCategory=Smoke"
