--- Description ---

In this talk, SSW’s Jason Taylor will show you how using the EF Core InMemory Provider will simplify your unit testing approach.

He will discuss the typical approach versus the simplified approach, limitations, and other considerations. You will walk away ready to write simplified unit tests for systems that depend on EF Core.

+1111 For saying that DbContext is a Unit of Work, and DbSet is a repository, and no need to recreate another repository pattern upon them! Very good explanation, thank you!

Very interesting, especially using the internal serviceprovider in testing (see sourcecode at 10:25)

Great lecture, without using service provider (new ServiceCollection())

we can use something like below, with

var _server = new TestServer(new WebHostBuilder()
.UseEnvironment("Testing")
.UseStartup<Startup>());
context = as TodoDbContext;

and Startup.cs
public IHostingEnvironment _hostingEnvironment { get; }

public Startup(IHostingEnvironment hostingEnvironment){
_hostingEnvironment = hostingEnvironment
}

public void services){
...
if
{
=>
{

});
}else { // UseSqlServer or .... }
