Generate unit tests for your code using Smart unit tests

December 23, 2014 by Anuraj

.Net ASP.Net ASP.Net MVC Visual Studio

Smart Unit Tests is a new feature in Visual Studio 2015, Smart Unit Tests helps developers to explore their .NET code to generate test data and a suite of unit tests. For every statement in the code, a test input is generated that will execute that statement. A case analysis is performed for every conditional branch in the code. When you run these smart unit tests, you can easily see which tests are failing and add any necessary code to fix them. You can select which of the generated tests to save into a test project to provide a regression suite. As you change your code, rerun Smart Unit Tests to keep the generated tests in sync with your code changes.
