Clover.Net

I am wondering if TypeMock can work with Clover.Net code coverage tool.

Hi,
There should be no problem running TypeMock with Clover.Net.
Just run the tests after Clover Instruments your code.
If you try it and failed please tell me

Scott, I am having issues running my unit tests with clover.net and TypeMock. All of my tests succeed when not instrumented. When I run the tests on the instrumented code, all of the tests that use TypeMock fail. It appears to be a problem when using a MockObject. Here is some code that fails.

MockObject procedureMock = MockManager.MockObject(typeof(Procedure));

Procedure testProcedure = procedureMock.Object as Procedure;

MockObject processMock = MockManager.MockObject(typeof(Process));

testProcedure.Process = processMock.Object as Process;


The last statement is just a simple setter and fails with this error

System.NullReferenceException : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I have stepped through the code with the debugger and the error occurs before any code in the setter is even executed. Please let me know if you need more information so that we can resolve this problem with clover.net.

Hi,
Clover.NET uses the static constructor (.cctor) of the class to initialize some internal field that NCover uses to gather information.

Your code mocks Procedure static constructor and thus Clover.NET throws the Exception.
In order to bypass this make sure that you let the static constructors run (unmocked) as follows:

MockObject procedureMock = MockManager.MockObject(typeof(Procedure,Constructor.StaticNotMocked)); 

:idea: I will add a requirement to support Clover.NET linkage when static constuctors are mocked

I wasn't referring to NCover. Did you mean clover.net?

Woops typo... I fixed it in the original post

Ok thanks. So I have to change all of my code to the example you have provided above? Is this just for MockObjects, or do I need to do it for Mocks as well?

What if I need to mock the static constructor?

As I wrote, I have added a requirement to support mocking statics and Clover.NET.

The code change is needed for all Mocks.

Hi Scott.
We were wondering when you might expect that this feature will be released.
Thanks.

Hi,
This might take some time, I will try to push this high on our list.

Hi,
This is implemented in version 3.1 (Professional and Enterprise Editions)
