MoqToNSubstituteConverter wiki

A console application to convert Moq in unit tests to NSubstitute

This project only has replacement code for the following:

Mock<ClassToMock> = ClassToMock
new Mock<ClassToMock>() = Substitute.For<ClassToMock>()
new Mock<ClassToMock>() { CallBase = true } = Substitute.ForPartsOf
It.IsAny = Arg.Any
It.Is = Arg.Is
.Object will be removed
.Verifiable will be removed
.Result will be removed
.Setup(name => name will be removed
.Verify(name => name = Received()

.Returns, .ReturnsAsync = .Returns
.Throws, .ThrowsAsync = .Throws

Times.Once = .Received(1)
Times.Exactly(3) = .Received(3)
Times.Never = .DidNotReceive()

Limitations:

• This will work best on well formatted code
• There is no replacment for .VerifyAll or .Protected
• It.IsAnyType does not currently have a replacement
• Some of the replaced statements no longer have the correct indentation, they are left justified, this could be fixed in Visual Studio by reformatting the document
• The replacement for Mock<ClassToMock> = new() is not technically correct, it will replace it with ClassToMock = new() but it should be ClassToMock = Substitute.For<ClassToMock>()
• Once the replacement is complete using NSubstitute; will need to be added to each modified file or global using NSubstitute; in the Usings.cs file

How to Run the code (PowerShell)

By default the executable will run in the current directory and sub directories, it perfoms analysis only and logs the results of the analysis in the log file.

.\MoqToNSubstitute.exe

To perform analysis on a specific directory:

.\MoqToNSubstitute.exe C:\Users\user\Documents\Projects\Vts.Api\Vts.Api.Tests\

To perform transformation on a specific directory:

.\MoqToNSubstitute.exe C:\Users\user\Documents\Projects\Vts.Api\Vts.Api.Tests\ true

How to Debug the code (Visual Studio)

If you place the folder for the code to be analyzed in the bin folder of the main project \MoqToNSubstitute\MoqToNSubstitute\bin\Debug\net6.0\ you can set breakpoints and step through the code, it will analyze by default. The log file will be located in the logs folder in that same location \MoqToNSubstitute\MoqToNSubstitute\bin\Debug\net6.0\logs.
