Verify is a snapshot tool that simplifies the assertion of complex data models and documents with all popular .NET unit testing frameworks.

Verify is called on the test result during the assertion phase. It serializes that result and stores it in a file that matches the test name. On the next test execution, the result is again serialized and compared to the existing file. The test will fail if the two snapshots do not match: either the change is unexpected, or the reference snapshot needs to be updated to the new result.

Learn how Verify works from its creator, what kinds of problems it is best suited for, how to customise it for different scenarios, and of the many extensions that add Verify support for numerous 3rd party libraries.

The different ways you can join your code together, with Calvin Fong 1:05:41

Developers often say to "design your code like LEGO". Typically, they're suggesting you separate your code into small modules with single responsibilities. However, a frequently overlooked detail is that LEGO bricks have little studs that allow you to join them together without everything falling apart. This seems like an important detail not to overlook, because I really like when my code doesn't fall apart.…

Down the Oregon Trail with Functional C#, with Simon J. Painter 1:24:52

1:24:52

In 1971, three students from Minnesota thought they could liven up a history lecture by creating a computer game for the students to play, and after several days of work in HP Time Share BASIC, they came up with what turned out to be a significant milestone in the history of computer games - Oregon Trail. Oregon Trail is often regarded as one of the first great computer games, as well as being the originator of a franchise that is still running to this day. It was effectively also one of the first instances of both Shareware and a Commercial home release (depending on the version). My interest though, isn't just in historical computer games, it's also .NET and Functional Programming. I want to use this as a worked example of one of my passions - Functional Programming in C#! The challenge I've set myself is to redevelop Oregon Trail into C# using the following restrictions: Near 100% unit test coverage No variables can change state once set No statements (for, foreach, if, where, etc.) unless there literally is no way of avoiding them I'll also be demonstrating a few of the tricks Functional Programming can offer, like Higher-order functions, functional flows with simple Monads and Tail Recursion. There should also be a bit of retro computing fun, while we're at it. Links: Functional Programming with C# (O'Reilly Media) Simon on LinkedIn Simon on Twitter Simon's website…

Managing granular authorisation in .NET, with Ryan Rowston 1:04:36

We have a challenge: Modern day administrators want to keep a tight rein on who can perform different actions in their systems. Join us and learn how we've evolved our authorisation patterns to grant highly granular permissions to different users, while maintaining developer-friendly patterns in code. In this talk I'll explain how we've approached this challenge, including: How we've encoded discreet permission levels as bits in a 64-bit integer using a .NET flags enum. How we've used an extended Authorize attribute to allow for developer to add authorisation in one line to API controllers/endpoints. How we've enabled dynamic policy generation to account for the potentially quintillions of unique permission combinations that this enables. Links: Ryan on LinkedIn…
