v1.3.0

Added

• TestDurableWorkflow.WithRetries simulates SDK retry policies and handlers for activities and
  children with manual time, bounded attempts, failure filters, and attempt diagnostics. Fresh
  scopes and inspectable child retry IDs support failure/recovery tests. TestDurableTaskSequence<TResult>
  supplies ordered results and failures with explicit exhaustion and reset. See the
  retry guide.
• TestDurableWorkflow.WithSerialization optionally snapshots inputs, results, events, and custom
  status with the SDK JSON converter or a caller-supplied DataConverter. Typed reads deserialize
  independent values, metadata reuses captured payloads, and converter failures remain observable.
  Direct assignment remains the default. See the
  workflow guide.
• Added opt-in SnapshotSettings.NormalizeStringLineEndings() to compare JSON string values
  across Windows and Linux. Decoded CRLF and CR become LF in actual and existing verified JSON
  without rewriting reviewed files; literal backslash sequences and trailing newlines within
  values are preserved. Reusable and global defaults retain the setting. See
  snapshot line endings.
• Durable Entity test helpers record orchestrator calls/signals, provide client.Entities metadata
  fixtures and explicit query/cleanup handlers, and execute real SDK entity implementations against
  serialized test-controlled state. Scenario diagnostics/reset include entity client interactions.
  See the entity guide.
• TestDurableWorkflow connects client scheduling to named orchestrators, activities, children,
  and external events through host middleware and isolated DI scopes. Result and metadata waits,
  manual context time, scenario diagnostics, and bounded cancellation/drain cleanup support
  application workflow tests. See the connected workflow guide.
• TestDurableTaskClient records orchestration scheduling attempts and supports HTTP starter
  tests using the SDK's status-response helpers. Management handlers cover termination, purge,
  restart, rewind, and history retrieval. Ordered operation recording, fluent assertions, and
  scenario-resource diagnostics/reset support client workflow tests. TestOrchestrationMetadataBuilder
  supplies seeded metadata fixtures with typed payloads, status, failure details, and timestamps.
  See the Durable client guide.
• TestOrchestrationContext supports typed input, instance metadata, replay-aware logging, manually
  advanced timers, buffered external events, child orchestration dispatch, and named activity handlers.
  Fluent overrides configure metadata, GUID generation, version comparison, and entity stubs;
  custom status and continuation requests are recorded for assertions. See the
  Durable context guide and
  complex orchestration recipes, with the
  Azure Functions API reference.
• ShouldMatchSnapshot extensions support serializable values, inline settings, and named snapshot
  variants. See snapshot naming and the
  snapshot core API reference.
• Added executable examples for complete application workflows, Durable orchestration, and
  end-to-end integration flows.

Fixed

• Recorder-backed responses, including SnapshotScenario() results, accept per-assertion HTTP
  exchange options for additional scrubbing, omission, redaction, and format selection. Assertions
  preserve the original recording and cannot restore data excluded or redacted during capture.
• Durable orchestration tests can create and use replay-safe loggers without requiring a running
  Durable runtime.

Upgrade notes

• See the Durable context upgrade guidance
  for the new in-memory defaults and explicit control of time, events, and child dispatch.
• See the snapshot upgrade guidance for
  assertion-time exchange configuration and capture-time redaction limits.
• Connected workflow retries, payload serialization, and JSON string line-ending normalization
  are opt-in. Standalone contexts and existing snapshot assertions retain their documented defaults.

All XBullet.EasyTesting packages use version 1.3.0 and target .NET 8, 9, and 10.

XBullet.EasyTesting 1.2.1

Added

• Added AzureFunctionTestFactory<TEntryPoint> to reuse a Functions application's Program.cs,
  production configuration, and service provider, with final test overrides, function discovery,
  bounded startup waits, and factory-owned async disposal. Hosted services remain stopped;
  in-process middleware is configured explicitly. See the
  Functions factory guide
  and Azure Functions API reference.

Fixed

• Functions test factories reject further use after host service disposal fails, while keeping
  active-scenario disposal rejections retryable and preserving the original cleanup exception.
• Documentation API navigation now opens valid package and namespace pages from the navigation menu.
• Release package validation now runs against the 1.1.0 compatibility baseline when projects
  use the SDK's default packaging setting.

Security

• Pinned Aspire's transitive MessagePack dependency to 2.5.303 and the container-test SqlClient
  dependency System.Security.Cryptography.Pkcs to 9.0.21 to resolve dependency audit findings.

XBullet.EasyTesting 1.1.0 — Agent skills for Copilot, Claude, and Codex

Agent skills for GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Codex

XBullet.EasyTesting 1.1.0 introduces a portable agent kit for applications that use the framework. It includes generic shared instructions and three focused skills:

• easytesting-integration-tests: authenticated endpoint tests, host setup, scenario isolation, and response assertions.
• easytesting-application-boundaries: persistence, outbound HTTP, messaging, telemetry, background work, and specialized dependencies.
• easytesting-snapshots: actual HTTP and Newtonsoft.Json contracts, complete exchanges, redaction, and baseline review.

The installer preserves existing project instructions, copies self-contained skill folders into each agent's native location, and supports dry runs and explicit conflict replacement. Guidance respects the consuming project's architecture, test runner, and installed framework version.

Start with the agent skills guide and installation instructions. The kit is distributed with the source; installing the NuGet packages does not install agent guidance.

Dependency updates

• Aspire.Hosting.Testing: 13.5.4 → 13.6.0.
• Verify.XunitV3: 31.24.0 → 31.28.0.
• Azure.Storage.Blobs in the test projects: 12.29.2 → 12.30.0.
• The Azurite blob smoke test uses service API 2026-06-06 to match the pinned Azurite 3.37.0 image.

All framework packages use version 1.1.0 and continue to target .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10.

See the 1.1.0 changelog and merged PR #45.

v1.0.19

Added

• SnapshotSettings.ScrubbingUrlPathGuids() stabilizes GUID path segments in JSON Url members
  during assertion, including recorder-backed exchanges rendered as JSON, HTTP text, or YAML.
  A predicate overload selects GUID segments by zero-based path position or original value.
  Hosts, query strings, and fragments are preserved. See
  HTTP redaction and URL stability.

Changed

• Exchange snapshot documentation now compares direct and recorder-backed capture, highlights
  the guard against separate recorder options during assertion, and shows where to configure
  capture options and assertion-time scrubbing. See
  exchange option ownership.

v1.0.18

Added

• Azure Functions hosts now support registered scenario resources, serialized scenario scopes,
  shared failure diagnostics, and the FunctionScenario and FunctionScopedTest bases. Original
  failures and cancellation tokens survive invocation disposal and scenario cleanup errors. See
  Functions scenarios.
• Messaging assertions now support route counts, predicate selection, absence checks, exact global
  and route sequences, and partial typed payload matching. Collection failures use one consistent
  snapshot and include message positions, routes, types, and payloads. See
  messaging assertions.
• Added framework-independent Eventually.AssertAsync and Eventually.WaitUntilAsync for
  background work, with cooperative deadlines, caller cancellation, sequential polling, fake-time
  support, and timeout diagnostics retaining the last assertion failure. See
  eventual assertions.
• EasyTestHost.Create<TEntryPoint>().UseEnvironment(environmentName) selects the host environment
  before application startup, including for scenario child hosts. The default remains Testing.
  See host environments.
• Scenario<TEntryPoint> provides reusable domain arrangement, guarded configuration, and
  immediate or deferred single-use setup. ScopedTest<TEntryPoint, TFactory> provides a concrete
  factory and isolated test runner with cancellation, failure diagnostics, and cleanup. Both bases
  are test-framework-independent. See
  domain scenarios and scoped tests.

Fixed

• Message diagnostics now derive the count and message list from one snapshot, preventing
  inconsistent counts during concurrent publication or reset. See
  messaging diagnostics.

Dependencies

• Azure.Core: 1.62.0 → 1.63.0
• Microsoft.DurableTask.Abstractions: 1.24.1 → 1.26.0
• Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus: 7.20.2 → 7.21.0
• StackExchange.Redis: 3.3.0 → 3.3.1

XBullet.EasyTesting v1.0.17

Changed

• Structured member and path scrubbers now preserve values already represented by {Redacted}, including redacted HTTP header arrays, so security redaction remains authoritative.

See HTTP redaction and URL stability and the full changelog.

v1.0.16

Added

• Fluent scenarios can attach delegating handlers with TestScenarioBuilder.WithHandler, and XBullet.EasyTesting.Snapshots.Http provides SnapshotScenario() for automatic pre-transport request capture with HttpExchangeRecorder.
• Built-in response, controller, exchange, and outbound HTTP snapshot assertions accept inline configuration callbacks while retaining their existing object-based overloads.
• TestScenarioBuilder.WithJsonOptions applies one JSON convention to scenario request helpers, while PostJson and PutJson accept per-request JsonSerializerOptions overrides.
• Fluent scenarios automatically use the hosted application's MVC JSON options for PostJson and PutJson, falling back to minimal-API HTTP JSON options when MVC is not registered. Scenario and per-request options remain explicit overrides.

Validation

• Release build completed with zero warnings and errors.
• 1,003 tests passed across .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10.
• Documentation, external links, dependency audit, package compatibility, and all 26 NuGet artifacts were validated.
