How do I put new List<int> {1} in an NUNIT TestCase?
I have the method:
public static int Add(List<int> numbers)
{
if (numbers == null || numbers.Count == 0)
return 0;
if (numbers.Count == 1)
return numbers[0];
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
Here is my test against it, but it does not like new List<int> {1}
in the TestCase:
[TestCase(new List<int>{1}, 1)]
public void Add_WithOneNumber_ReturnsNumber(List<int> numbers)
{
var result = CalculatorLibrary.CalculatorFunctions.Add(numbers);
Assert.AreEqual(1, result);
}
It gives me the error:
An attribute argument must be a constant expression, typeof expression or array creation expression of an attribute parameter type
Do I have to do it like this:
[Test]
public void Add_WithOneNumber_ReturnsNumber()
{
var result = CalculatorLibrary.CalculatorFunctions.Add(new List<int>{7});
Assert.AreEqual(7, result);
var result2 = CalculatorLibrary.CalculatorFunctions.Add(new List<int> {3});
Assert.AreEqual(4,result2);
}
There is one option to use TestCaseSource attribute. Here I provide a non-assert test with two cases just to see how it works:
[TestFixture]
public class TestClass
{
private static readonly object[] _sourceLists =
{
new object[] {new List<int> {1}}, //case 1
new object[] {new List<int> {1, 2}} //case 2
};
[TestCaseSource("_sourceLists")]
public void Test(List<int> list)
{
foreach (var item in list)
Console.WriteLine(item);
}
}
Anyhow I have to mention it is not the most evident solution and I would prefer neatly organized fixtures ignoring the fact they are more verbose

My solution is simpler, I just use params
. I hope this works for you!
[TestCase(1, 1)]
[TestCase(10, 5, 1, 4)]
[TestCase(25, 3, 5, 5, 12)]
public void Linq_Add_ShouldSumAllTheNumbers(int expected, params int[] numbers)
{
var result = CalculatorLibrary.CalculatorFunctions.Add(numbers);
Assert.AreEqual(expected, result);
}
Improve code for @Yurii Hohan answer:
private static readonly object[] _Data =
{
new object[] {new List<int> {0}, "test"},
new object[] {new List<int> {0, 5}, "test this"},
};
[Test, TestCaseSource(nameof(_Data))]
Hope this help.
I often use strings and parsing as it renders nicely in the testrunner. Sample:
[TestCase("1, 2")]
[TestCase("1, 2, 3")]
public void WithStrings(string listString)
{
var list = listString.Split(',')
.Select(int.Parse)
.ToList();
...
}
Looks like this in Resharper's runner:
You can use this :
[TestCase(new []{1,2,3})]
public void Add_WithOneNumber_ReturnsNumber(int[] numbers)
