• (Breaking) Dropped support for .NET 3.5

4.0.0 - 2016-11-28

This is a catch-up release of cumulative changes to NBuilder that have accrued since the last offical release in 2011. As it's been 5 years since the last official release, it's hard to know everthing that's changed.

Breaking changes

Obsolete methods have been removed.

Any method previously marked with the Obsolete attribute has now been removed.

Silverlight No Longer Supported

As Silverlight is effective a dead technology, we have officially ended support for it. This will allow us to better focus on a forthcoming release with .NET Core support.

New Features

Builder has a non-static implementation.

This will allow you to create customized BuilderSettings for different testing scenarios.

Old Code

    var results = Builder<MyObject>.CreateListOfSize(10).Build();

New Code

    var settings = new BuilderSettings()
    var results = new Builder(settings).CreateListOfSize<MyObject>(10).Build();

With and Do action now supports a signature that receives an index

Example

    var builderSettings = new BuilderSettings();
    var list = new Builder(builderSettings)
            .CreateListOfSize<MyClassWithConstructor>(10)
            .All()
            .Do((row, index) => row.Int = index*2)
            .WithConstructor(() => new MyClassWithConstructor(1, 2f))
            .Build();

Bug Fixes

• The decimal separator was wrong for some cultures.
• Random number generation of decimals was sometimes incorrect.
• Sequences were not created in the correct order.
• Random strings were not always generated between the expected lengths.
