Support for FluentValidation #33

Closed btastic closed 6 years ago

btastic commented 6 years ago

Description

I really like fluent validations as they give a more descriptive messages when things are going wrong.

Current behavior

Currently the default Assert is used.

Expected behavior

I can decide what asserting library I want to use - I saw a bunch of different asserting libraries, so might be a good start with FluentValidation

We don't write a lot of Assert statements. Only the Assert.Fail in the stub tests I think.

One workaround would be to remove the $TestMethods$ part in the template and put in your own "starter" test with whatever assert statement you want. Though you'd only get the one test, and not one per public method.

A more general fix might be to add a template for the test method contents, so you could change what's put under the // Assert section. Would also probably need to add a list of namespaces to add in. With those two things you could set it up to whatever validation library you wanted.

Sounds cool! Thanks for the quick response!

In 2.0 the test method code is generated from a customizable template.
