Could you please provide more information? Like:

complete call stack
a project where this is reproducable
the type that is getting resolved

This is too less information to say anything except WTF.

Hello, good afternoon, can you tell me where I can get more information about the ObjectContainer class. I already read the documentation available on the site but I didn't find clear information, I need to know what the BaseContainer property means and more about the methods of this class.

SabotageAndi commented 2 years ago

BaseContainer is the parent container of the current container. Source is here: https://github.com/SpecFlowOSS/BoDi/blob/master/BoDi/BoDi.cs#L592

Is it normal for the Base Container to be null? If not, how can I start it? I'm getting this error when it tries to go through NUnit.ssemblyHooks

Error says: ObjectContainer name does not exist in current context

SabotageAndi commented 2 years ago

If it is the globalcontainer, then yes, it is ok that BaseContainer is null.

Okay, thanks for the feedback, it's helping me a lot in my studies. One last question and I believe this will be the key to unlocking this error I have in TFS when uploading the automated tests.

specrun + runner comes with a TFS ready configuration as described in the TFS documentation. However, the other test provider options do not come with this configuration (specflow.nunit, specflow.xunit, etc), and there is no description about it in the documentation.

My question then is, how do I configure this configuration with the specflow.nunit test provider so that my automated tests run on TFS without this error:

Error Message:
OneTimeSetUp: System.TypeInitializationException : The type initializer for 'BoDi.ObjectContainer' threw an exception.
----> System.Security.VerificationException : Operation could destabilize the runtime.

This error occurs in every scenario of my features, I'll put the log attached here in case you want to take a look.

The final error is this:

System.TypeInitializationException : The type initializer for 'BoDi.ObjectContainer' threw an exception.

Thank you in advance for your attention, good work!

Thank you very much for the explanations I managed to solve the problem, apparently because I had steps shared between the features I needed to create a stepbase and put the IObjectContainer in its constructor and make my steps inherit the constructor of this stepsbase class. Now it worked and it's working.
