Mappings are a critical part of any NHibernate application. In this recipe, I'll show you how to test those mappings using Fluent NHibernate's Persistence tester.
Complete the Fast testing with SQLite in-Memory database recipe mentioned previously in this chapter.
- Add a reference to
FluentNHibernate. - In
PersistenceTests.cs, add the following using statement:using FluentNHibernate.Testing;
- Add the following three tests to the
PersistenceTestsfixture:[Test] public void Product_persistence_test() { new PersistenceSpecification<Product>(Session) .CheckProperty(p => p.Name, "Product Name") .CheckProperty(p => p.Description, "Product Description") .CheckProperty(p => p.UnitPrice, 300.85M) .VerifyTheMappings(); } [Test] public void ActorRole_persistence_test() { new PersistenceSpecification<ActorRole>(Session) .CheckProperty(p => p.Actor, "Actor Name") .CheckProperty(p => p.Role, "Role") .VerifyTheMappings(); } [Test] public void Movie_persistence_test() { new PersistenceSpecification<Movie>(Session) .CheckProperty(p => p.Name, "Movie Name") .CheckProperty(p => p.Description, "Movie Description") .CheckProperty(p => p.UnitPrice, 25M) .CheckProperty(p => p.Director, "Director Name") .CheckList(p => p.Actors, new List<ActorRole>() { new ActorRole() { Actor = "Actor Name", Role = "Role" } }) .VerifyTheMappings(); } - Run these tests with NUnit.
The Persistence tester in Fluent NHibernate can be used with any mapping method. It performs the following four steps:
- Create a new instance of the entity (
Product,ActorRole,Movie) using the values provided. - Save the entity to the database.
- Get the entity from the database.
- Verify that the fetched instance matches the original.
At a minimum, each entity type should have a simple Persistence test, such as the one shown previously. More information about the Fluent NHibernate Persistence tester can be found on their wiki at http://wiki.fluentnhibernate.org/Persistence_specification_testing.
