Hey guys,

Today I stumbled upon this issue. In WINRT Reflection.Emit is not present thus when it comes to Mocking frameworks for WinRT there is not much choice.

What are you guys using for you own projects ? I tried MOQRT but failed as soon as I introduced a couple of "more complicated" mocks.

Regards

I use Telerik's mock framework to mock just about everything. It supports testing WinRT components.

I have used JustMock previously as well, all be it very lightly, but it let me do everything I needed in terms of complex objects.

 

Thankfully, I have returned to WPF….

 

Good luck with it Marlon.

 

Cheers

Brennon,

Great to hear from you.  Likewise, I’m keen on JuskMockLite. 

I’ve been away from WPF for a 18 months.

I’m working with Aurelia, AngularJS, and Electron.  

Currently writing my Crank App, metadata code generation app, using Electron, Aurelia, ES6 and MongoDB.  App will run on Mac or Windows.  Will generate code or code snippets you need in any language.

Best to you Mate,

Karl

It's like a reunion tour. Good to hear from you guys. Never really left WPF. She may be a fickle mistress but she is beautiful when she puts her mind to it.

Just talked about WPF to a nice audience here in Geneva, this was a request from MS Switzerland. Nice to see that it is still a first class citizen for enterprise dev, POS, etc.

Flying to London now to talk about Win10 Universal tomorrow, XAML rules!!

Hello all, glad to hear everyone is doing well.

WPF... It just works for me and my projects. Not for everyone, but for me it is such a sweet spot of comfort.

Laurent, not sure where you are tomorrow  location wise, am running around a bit but would be great to grab a coffee if schedules work?

Anyone else in London?

Cheers

I just wish it got the same love as UWP. I really want x:Bind in WPF - that would be a huge perf boost for me.
