HI all,
If you suffer from complexity and slowness and of debugging process for your plugins and code activities, please check my Nuget/Github project and package.
It helps you to debug your Plugin/CodeActivity directly from start of execute method (and also constructor of your classes). No need to do deploy, profile, attach to process, replay execution….
Should be easy to use. Check samples in TestApp (program.cs) project. After that just put breakpoint, click F5 and debug as any desktop application.
With this you can implement automated tests of your plugins and code activities. I didn't find that somebody published such library so I hope it will help you. Published version is tested with .net framework 4.5.2, 4.61 and CRM SDK 8.0 and 9.0.

thanks, that helped! I am able to execute the plug-in now. Still get an error, though. (Unable to retrieve primary entity for message Update in stage 0: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object).
I guess I'm missing some properties to be able to get the entity..
Well, going to look into it :)
Hi Denis. You need to reference project with you plugins in your testApp and test code as github sampes. Can you give more description about what are you doing and which issue you have?
You need to set TestApp as startup project. Create your test function that calls your plugin/codeActivity. Set input parameters and context entity and attributes according to your need. Call this function from somewhere,. Press F5. I'll support you if you need.
Since I am new to CRM Development, are there more detailed instructions on how to get this working? I imported the TestApp project into my solution, but how do I proceed? Do I have to replicate the code parts I have to test?
Thanks!
Hi, thanks for sharing this to community.
The content is good for a blog post, but you posted in forum which is meant for problems related to Dynamics products & receiving solution/workaround for the same from other community members.
You should see how to request a blog: community.dynamics.com/.../136.request-a-new-blog-or-blog-to-syndicate
The usage is:
1) add DynamicsCrm.AssemblyDebugger project/nuget to your project
2) implement sample with some of your CodeActivities/PLugins (Program.cs->SamplePluginExecute, SampleCodeActivityExecute)
3)put breakpoint in your CodeActivity/Plugin
3) press F5
