Attributes and Annotations of Testing Frameworks
Frequently used attribute and annotations in various testing frameworks
It is called attributes in the .NET environment and annotations in Java. We use them to declare information about methods, types, properties and so on.
We will discuss about frequently used ones to run test scenarious properly. You would find comparisons of NUnit, MSTest, xUnit.net and JUnit testing frameworks down below.
You could find very comprehensive tutorials on Guru99 website.
| NUnit | MSTest | xUnit.net | JUnit | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [TestFixture] | [TestClass] | - | - | Indicates that the class has test methods. |
| [Test] | [TestMethod] | [Fact] | @Test | Marks a test case. |
| [OneTimeSetUp] | [ClassInitialize] | IClassFixture |
@BeforeClass | The one time triggered method before test cases start. |
| [OneTimeTearDown] | [ClassCleanup] | IClassFixture |
@AfterClass | The one time triggered method after test cases end. |
| [SetUp] | [TestInitialize] | Constructor | @Before | Triggered before every test case. |
| [TearDown] | [TestCleanup] | IDisposable.Dispose | @After | Triggered after every test case. |
| [Ignore] | [Ignore] | [Fact(Skip=”reason”)] | @Ignore | Ignores the test case. |
| [Category(“”)] | [TestCategory(“”)] | [Trait(“Category”, “”)] | @Category(*.class) | Categorizes the test cases or classes. |
Copy Database with Backup on SQL Management Studio
We can get a copy of any database with Backup and Restore commands in SQL Server Management Studio but there are a few tricks which makes our life easier.
First of all, it must be a full backup because a differential backup would be useless.
We can not restore a database to another one. If you just want to change the name of the database, you can easily give a new name at the restore process.
