C# Testing with Fakes

I wrote a nice little tutorial about using fakes in C#. It cover Shims and Stubs. It also covers testing private methods using the InternalsVisibleTo attribute.

VBScript Conditional Includes

VBScript Conditional Includes

This is a nasty one to track down in production, so I'm going to show you here.

VBScript has a fun way of interpreting include references that are nested inside an if statement. It will load all include references. If you have different functions, with the same name, it will use the second one.

Example

myTest_inc1.asp:

<%

Response.Write "<br/>Function 1 loaded...<br/>"

function myFunc(int1, int2)

    Response.Write "<br/>Function 1 executing...<br/>"

    myFunc = int1 * int2

end function 

%>

myTest_inc2.asp:

<%

Response.Write "<br/>Function 2 loaded...<br/>"

function myFunc(int1, int2)

    Response.Write "<br/>Function 2 executing...<br/>"

    myFunc = int1 + int2

end function

%>

myTest.asp:

<%

    if (true) then

        Response.Write "<br/>Case 1 executing...<br/>"

%>

<!-- #include file="myTest_inc1.asp" -->

<% 

    else

        Response.Write "<br/>Case 2 executing...<br/>"

%>

<!-- #include file="myTest_inc2.asp" -->

<%

    end if

    Response.Write myFunc(3,3)

%>

The output of myTest.asp is:

Case 1 executing...

Function 1 loaded...

Function 2 executing...
6
