How does one initialize a complex object with random data for testing?
I've got kind of a complex object that looks like this:
public class DynamicEntity
{
public string EntityName { get; set; }
public List<Entity> MappingEntityList { get; set; }
public List<BaseAttributes> BaseAttributesList { get; set; }
}
I am trying to initialize it with random data:
// Fixture setup
Fixture fixture = new Fixture();
DynamicEntity dynamicEntityFixture = fixture.Create<DynamicEntity>();
I am then setting up my mocked object to return this dynamicEntityFixture:
_mockedObject.Setup(x => x.GetEntityProperties("account"))
.Returns(() => dynamicEntityFixture);
When running the unit test I am getting:
Ploeh.AutoFixture.ObjectCreationException : AutoFixture was unable to create an instance from System.Runtime.Serialization.ExtensionDataObject, most likely because it has no public constructor, is an abstract or non-public type.
How can I initialize a complex object with random data for testing?
