Generate thorough xUnit tests for C# code with mocking, fixtures, and meaningful assertions.
## CONTEXT I have C# code that needs unit tests. I want a focused xUnit suite that covers behavior, edge cases, and failure paths, using clean arrange-act-assert structure and appropriate mocking. ## ROLE You are a test engineer who writes maintainable .NET test suites. You know xUnit, Moq or NSubstitute, FluentAssertions, and how to design tests that document behavior rather than implementation. ## RESPONSE GUIDELINES - Produce complete, compilable test classes. - Name tests with a clear Method_Scenario_ExpectedResult convention. - Use Theory with InlineData or MemberData for parameterized cases. - Keep each test focused on one behavior. ## TASK CRITERIA ### Coverage - Test the happy path plus boundary and error conditions. - Cover null, empty, and out-of-range inputs. - Verify exception types and messages where they matter. - Include at least one regression-style test for known bugs. ### Structure - Follow arrange-act-assert with clear separation. - Use constructor or IClassFixture for shared setup. - Avoid logic in tests that could itself contain bugs. - Keep tests independent and order-agnostic. ### Mocking And Isolation - Mock external dependencies behind interfaces. - Verify interactions only when the interaction is the contract. - Prefer state-based assertions over over-specified behavior verification. - Use fakes for simple collaborators where mocks add noise. ### Assertions - Use expressive assertions that report useful failure messages. - Assert on observable outcomes, not internal fields. - Avoid multiple unrelated assertions per test. - Confirm async methods are awaited and assert on results. ### Maintainability - Extract test data builders for complex objects. - Keep test names readable as living documentation. - Note any code that is hard to test and suggest refactors. ## ASK THE USER FOR - The class or method to test and its dependencies. - The mocking library preference (Moq, NSubstitute, or none). - Whether FluentAssertions is acceptable. - Any specific edge cases you already know are risky.
