R1D28 ASP.Net Core Testing
I spent a little bit of time trying to get a sample ASP.NET Core project running on CircleCI. This turned out to be a bit more challenging than I anticipated and I was not able to completely get it done.
One of the more furstrating thing about .NET Core is that a lot of the documentation assumes that you are using Visual Studio on Windows. I was able to find this wonderful introductory post on Testing ASP.NET Core Applications which was able to get me to get a project up and running using Visual Studio Code on a Mac.
Having a separate “project” for testing really threw me off. I think I prefer the rails/laravel model where all the generated code comes with a scaffolding for doing testing.
Although I was able to build and test my code on CircleCI with no issues. The biggest challenge was getting XML test output from Xunit. I still have no idea how this works. I read this issue on GitHub but it kind of led me no where.
I ran into a similar problem last week when trying to figure out how to use DocFX.
I think the best thing that ever happened from Java was Javadoc. It’s just so damn easy. I really dislike the way that .NET does doc strings.

As I'm getting older a lot of my social circles are becoming ever more conservative. The focus shifts from building with ambition to fiercly protecting what one has achieved. Shifting the mind on protectionism makes one consider all that can cause dama…
