# Cross-Cutting Concern: Testing
|
|
|
|
**Project**: WPF UI (wpfui) v4.2.0
|
|
**Last Updated**: 2026-02-10
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
WPF UI employs a two-tier testing strategy consisting of unit tests for isolated logic verification and integration tests for end-to-end UI automation. The testing infrastructure is intentionally lightweight, reflecting the library's nature as a visual control library where many behaviors require a running WPF application to validate.
|
|
|
|
## Test Pyramid
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/ Integration Tests \ 8 tests
|
|
/ (FlaUI + Gallery App) \ End-to-end UI automation
|
|
/________________________\
|
|
/ \
|
|
/ Unit Tests \ 6 tests
|
|
/ (XUnit + NSubstitute) \ Isolated logic, pure functions
|
|
/________________________________\
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Layer | Scope | Framework | Assertion Library | Count |
|
|
|-------|-------|-----------|-------------------|-------|
|
|
| Unit Tests | Pure logic, extension methods, animation providers | XUnit 2.9.3 + NSubstitute 5.3.0 | `Xunit.Assert` | 6 |
|
|
| Integration Tests | Window management, navigation, dialogs, title bar | XUnit v3 3.2.0 + FlaUI.UIA3 5.0.0 | AwesomeAssertions 9.3.0 | 8 |
|
|
|
|
## Test Framework Versions
|
|
|
|
All versions are managed centrally in `Directory.Packages.props`:
|
|
|
|
| Package | Version | Purpose |
|
|
|---------|---------|---------|
|
|
| `xunit` | 2.9.3 | Unit test framework (v2-style API) |
|
|
| `xunit.v3` | 3.2.0 | Integration test framework (v3 with `IAsyncLifetime`) |
|
|
| `xunit.runner.visualstudio` | 3.1.5 | Visual Studio / `dotnet test` runner |
|
|
| `Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk` | 18.0.0 | .NET test SDK infrastructure |
|
|
| `NSubstitute` | 5.3.0 | Mocking library for unit tests |
|
|
| `AwesomeAssertions` | 9.3.0 | Fluent assertions (FluentAssertions successor) |
|
|
| `FlaUI.Core` | 5.0.0 | UI automation core library |
|
|
| `FlaUI.UIA3` | 5.0.0 | UIA3 automation adapter |
|
|
| `coverlet.collector` | 6.0.4 | Code coverage collection |
|
|
|
|
## Test Naming Conventions
|
|
|
|
### Unit Tests
|
|
|
|
Pattern: `MethodName_ExpectedResult_WhenCondition`
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
[Fact]
|
|
public void ApplyTransition_ReturnsFalse_WhenDurationIsLessThan10()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternative pattern: `GivenX_Method_ExpectedResult`
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
[Fact]
|
|
public void GivenAllRegularSymbols_Swap_ReturnsValidFilledSymbol()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Integration Tests
|
|
|
|
Pattern: `Subject_ShouldExpectedBehavior_WhenCondition`
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
[Fact]
|
|
public async Task CloseButton_ShouldCloseWindow_WhenClicked()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Class Naming
|
|
|
|
- Unit test classes: `{ClassUnderTest}Tests` (e.g., `TransitionAnimationProviderTests`)
|
|
- Integration test classes: `{Feature}Tests` (e.g., `TitleBarTests`, `NavigationTests`)
|
|
- Integration test classes are `sealed`; unit test classes are not
|
|

## Test Infrastructure
|
|
|
|
### Unit Tests
|
|
|
|
Unit tests reference the core `Wpf.Ui` project directly and use NSubstitute for mocking WPF types (e.g., `UIElement`). Global usings are defined for common namespaces:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
System, System.Windows, NSubstitute, Xunit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Source: `tests/Wpf.Ui.UnitTests/GlobalUsings.cs`_
|
|
|
|
### Integration Tests
|
|
|
|
Integration tests use a custom infrastructure built on FlaUI:
|
|
|
|
- **`TestedApplication`** (`IAsyncLifetime`): Launches and manages the Gallery `.exe` process. Finds the executable in the test output directory. Uses `UIA3Automation` for UI element discovery.
|
|
- **`UiTest`** (abstract base class, `IAsyncLifetime`): Provides helper methods for all UI tests:
|
|
- `FindFirst(string automationId)` -- finds UI elements by automation ID
|
|
- `FindFirst(Func<ConditionFactory, ConditionBase>)` -- finds by condition
|
|
- `Wait(int seconds)` -- async delay for UI settling
|
|
- `Enter(string value)` -- simulates keyboard text input
|
|
- `Press(VirtualKeyShort)` -- simulates a key press
|
|
|
|
### Integration Test Runner Configuration
|
|
|
|
Tests run sequentially (no parallel test collections) with invariant culture:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"parallelizeTestCollections": false,
|
|
"diagnosticMessages": true,
|
|
"culture": "invariant"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Source: `tests/Wpf.Ui.Gallery.IntegrationTests/xunit.runner.json`_
|
|
|
|
## Run Commands
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Run unit tests
|
|
dotnet test tests/Wpf.Ui.UnitTests/Wpf.Ui.UnitTests.csproj
|
|
|
|
# Run integration tests (requires built Gallery app)
|
|
dotnet test tests/Wpf.Ui.Gallery.IntegrationTests/Wpf.Ui.Gallery.IntegrationTests.csproj
|
|
|
|
# Run all tests with coverage
|
|
dotnet test tests/Wpf.Ui.UnitTests/Wpf.Ui.UnitTests.csproj --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Coverage Gaps and Observations
|
|
|
|
| Area | Current Coverage | Notes |
|
|
|------|-----------------|-------|
|
|
| Animations | 2 unit tests | `TransitionAnimationProvider` edge cases only |
|
|
| Extensions | 4 unit tests | `SymbolExtensions.Swap()` and `GetString()` exhaustive enum tests |
|
|
| Controls (77+) | 0 unit tests | Controls depend on WPF runtime; consider UI automation expansion |
|
|
| Services | 0 unit tests | `INavigationService`, `IContentDialogService`, etc. are testable via mocks |
|
|
| Theming | 0 tests | Static managers (`ApplicationThemeManager`) limit testability |
|
|
| Win32 Interop | 0 tests | Requires OS-level interaction; integration tests more appropriate |
|
|
| Window Chrome | 3 integration tests | TitleBar close/minimize/maximize buttons |
|
|
| Navigation | 2 integration tests | AutoSuggestBox search and sidebar navigation |
|
|
| Dialogs | 2 integration tests | ContentDialog result text and keyboard focus isolation |
|
|
| Window | 1 integration test | Window title verification |
|
|
|
|
## CI/CD Integration
|
|
|
|
The PR validation workflow (`.github/workflows/wpf-ui-pr-validator.yaml`) currently only builds the Gallery app in Release mode. It does **not** run unit or integration tests as part of PR checks. Test execution is a local development responsibility.
