README.md

This document covers following aspects of code evaluation for C#.

• Build
• Correctness
• Unit tests

Supported Versions

• 2.2
• 3.1
• 5.0

Build

The only requirement here is you should add an AssemblyName entry with the value geektrust in your .csproj file.

Given below is a sample

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
    <RootNamespace>geektrust_family_demo</RootNamespace>
    <!-- Add a assembly name entry to your project and make sure it is geektrust-->
    <AssemblyName>geektrust</AssemblyName>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

This will ensure that the dll file will be created by the name geektrust.dll.

We then build the solution by the following commands.

dotnet build -o geektrust

Correctness

We expect your program to take the location to the text file as parameter. Input needs to be read from a text file, and output should be printed to the console. The text file will contain only commands in the format prescribed by the respective problem.

We then build and execute the solution by the following commands.

dotnet build -o geektrust
dotnet geektrust/geektrust.dll <absolute_path_to_input_file>

Unit tests

We expect you to create a separate project for Unit testing and assume that it will import the main project.

We support xUnit and NUnit for unit testing and use Coverlet for checking the test coverage. Take a look at this page for more info on unit testing in C#

Given below is a sample .csproj file for xUnit

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
    <IsPackable>false</IsPackable>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk" Version="16.7.1" />
    <PackageReference Include="xunit" Version="2.4.1" />
    <PackageReference Include="xunit.runner.visualstudio" Version="2.4.3">
      <IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers; buildtransitive</IncludeAssets>
      <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
    </PackageReference>
  </ItemGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <ProjectReference Include="..\SampleProject\SampleProject.csproj" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

To execute the test cases we run the command

dotnet test

For calculating the coverage we run the command

dotnet test --collect="XPlat Code Coverage"

Note: Please refer this sample application to know how a C# application will be checked for build, correctness & unit tests.
