Hi all - I am trying to figure out how to use an in-memory database with Simple.Data 2.0. Can anyone lend me a hand with basic syntax on setting it up?

Thanks in advance!

Really I'm looking for basic strategy for unit testing functions that hit Simple.Data objects.

So if I have a function that makes a simple.data call I want to make sure that the right parameters are being passed into Simple.Data and that the outer function resolves with the expected values with given fixed results.

The way we tackle that is to wrap the Simple.Data call in a protected virtual method. That allows your test class to inherit from the class you're test, specify your own behavior for the database call, and still unit test all the other non-data access code.

Hey Michael,

I actually happened to run across this today which would make it even easier.
