Hi All,

Can some one help me in unit testing custom workflow using Rhino mocks.

1. How to mock CodeActivityContext?

2. How to call Protected Execute method()?

When I try to mock CodeActivityContext, I got error as

"Can not instantiate proxy of class: System.Activities.CodeActivityContext.

Could not find a parameterless constructor."

If you have any related blogs please let me know.

Regards

Krishna

You don't actually need to call the Execute - you can use the WorkflowInvoker class with WorkflowInvoker.Invoke(inputArgs)

The CodeActivityContext is then created for you. You can add the Tracing, Factor and WorkflowContext to the Extensions:

// IWorkflowContext

WorkflowContext = MockRepository.GenerateStub<IWorkflowContext>();

WorkflowContext.Stub(x => x.Depth).Return(depth);

// Workflow Invoker

WorkFlowInvoker = new WorkflowInvoker(wf);

WorkFlowInvoker.Extensions.Add<ITracingService>(() => TracingService);

WorkFlowInvoker.Extensions.Add<IOrganizationServiceFactory>(() => Factory);

WorkFlowInvoker.Extensions.Add<IWorkflowContext>(() => WorkflowContext);

Did you try FakeXrmEasy? It will save you some precious time cause it mocks codeactivity and plugin execution for you, queries, and many CRM messages. You can literally execute a codeactivity in one line of code.

Rahul, if helps, this is an example with FakeXrmEasy where CodeActivityContext is already mocked for you and you just have to execute it in one line of code:
