Automated Testing AX: UserConnection and Deadlocks

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hello everybody,

we're doing extreme automated testing in AX here (Unit-Test and Process-Test), and I am on some issues regarding deadlocks using number sequences.

I tracked the issue down to the usage of the UserConnection class that is for example used to get new number sequences.

Does anyone have an idea how I can mock the UserConnection class so that is not using another connection? The tests need to run in one tts block because we need to abort all created data at the end of every TestCase....

Kind regards

Andi

    I have not done much unit testing in AX, but I am thinking I would be cautious to unit test anything that is dependent on integration with the database. From what I've learned about unit testing is that you want to avoid dependency in unit tests if at all possible. I'm just thinking out loud, so if I'm way off, please just ignore me. ;-)

    Yep you're right. I said Unit-Test but meant testing of processes like create sales order, then post it, and check if the invoice got created... sorry :)

    It would be awesome if you could inject some other dependencies and mock the DB layer to test the process, but I guess that is decades away. Will be interesting to see who else comments on this. Sorry for just elaborating and not pushing solutions here.
