Syntax

public static class MockerCreationExtensions

Examples

Use these overloads when the constructor choice matters and you want to supply only a subset of arguments explicitly.

var mocker = new Mocker();
var processor = mocker.CreateInstance<OrderProcessor, string>(
new Dictionary<Type, object?>
{
[typeof(string)] = "orders-eu"
});
processor.Should().NotBeNull();

Methods

CreateInstance<T, TParam1>(Mocker, InstanceCreationFlags, Dictionary<Type, object?>)

Declaration

public static T? CreateInstance<T, TParam1>(this Mocker mocker, InstanceCreationFlags flags, Dictionary<Type, object?> data) where T : class

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Mocker	mocker
InstanceCreationFlags	flags
Dictionary<Type, object>	data

Returns

Type	Description
T

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T
TParam1

CreateInstance<T, TParam1>(Mocker, Dictionary<Type, object?>)

Creates an instance of T by selecting the constructor that matches TParam1 and injecting the supplied value from data.

Declaration

public static T? CreateInstance<T, TParam1>(this Mocker mocker, Dictionary<Type, object?> data) where T : class

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Mocker	mocker	The mocker.
Dictionary<Type, object>	data	The data.

Returns

Type	Description
T	The created instance or null when resolution cannot produce one.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The concrete type to create.
TParam1	The type of the t param1.

Examples

This is useful when a component has multiple constructors and your test needs to target the overload that accepts a tenant or region value.

var mocker = new Mocker();
var handler = mocker.CreateInstance<InvoiceHandler, string>(
new Dictionary<Type, object?>
{
[typeof(string)] = "contoso"
});
handler.Should().NotBeNull();
handler!.TenantName.Should().Be("contoso");
