  1. POWhat are the principles behind AutoFixture's declarative way of setting up a fixture?
    text
    copied!<p>I have previously asked a similar <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16145284/autofixture-how-to-express-the-following-code-declaratively">question</a> on SO to which I got an answer. At the time, for the sake of expediency, I mechanically applied the answer but now I'm trying to get a handle on how the mechanism for declaratively setting up a fixture is.</p> <p>So, I am currently looking at <a href="http://blog.ploeh.dk/2009/04/23/DealingWithTypesWithoutPublicConstructors/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Mark Seemann's Dealing With Types Without Public Constructors blog post</a> and converting it to be declarative. It is very similar to my original query but I can't get it to work. Please note that the code given is not actually production code and that this is a learning exercise. </p> <p>Now if it helps, I've got the <a href="https://github.com/DavidSSL/AutoFixtureDeclarative/tree/0.0.1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">imperative code</a> up on GitHub and the code in question is reproduced below: </p> <pre><code>[Fact] public static void CanOverrideCtorArgs() { var fixture = new Fixture(); var knownText = "This text is not anonymous"; fixture.Register&lt;int, IMyInterface&gt;( i =&gt; new FakeMyInterface( i, knownText ) ); var sut = fixture.Create&lt;MyClass&gt;(); } </code></pre> <p>This is the code similar to the one given in this <a href="http://blog.ploeh.dk/2009/04/23/DealingWithTypesWithoutPublicConstructors/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">post</a>.</p> <p>Hence, my question is what should I know/read in order to <em>convert this snippet of imperative code to be declarative</em>. </p>
