Or maybe it is just me being stupid.

I had trouble recently with testing methods that return object graphs, the test would look like:

Assert.AreEqual(1, graph.Items[0].Count);

Assert.AreEqual(0, graph.Items[1].Count);

Assert.AreEqual(1, graph.Items[2].Count);

 

I just couldn’t stand the code, but I couldn’t think of a way to make it better, so I mostly tried to use Fit to do them, since it’s far more natural to do it this way.

Today I had to write another one of those tests, but this time I needed to do it in C#, and it just clicked, I can do this:

int [] expected = new int [] { 1,0,1};

for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
   Assert.AreEqual(expected[i[, graph.Items[i].Count, “Error on {0}”, i+1);

Now I’m feeling stupid that I didn’t figure it out in the first place.
