Today I’d like to share with you a very interesting concept in software testing – Assert Object pattern. It makes the Assert part of a test much simpler and more readable. Let’s dive right into it 😉The Asserts Hell Let’s consider the following unit test: What’s wrong here? Given and When sections are great single-liners. We know straightaway what’s the input and the action executed. However, Then block is too complex. It’s hard to figure out, just passing quickly through this test, what is expected. T...

Let's see what is 'card table' data structure and how is it used generational garbage collection Written by Dawid Sibińskion Continuing .NET Internals series on the blog, today we’re going to see what is generational garbage collection. You’ll also get to know what is a card table data structure and for what it’s used 🙂 As we know from this post, heaps used by .NET process to allocate reference objects are allocated on different kinds of heaps. In the previous article we also got to know that...

Written by Dawid Sibińskion I’ve recently met a weird issue with T-SQL scripts at work and would like to share it with you today 🙂 On daily basis I work a lot with MS SQL Server databases. We often create many T-SQL objects (tables, views, procedures, functions) and because of some reasons we cannot use Entity Framework or another from widely available ORMs. Nonetheless, all objects created in the database must be kept in the form of SQL scripts (files) containing set of CREATE, ALTER, INSERT,...
