In this post, we will see how to test a Private methods in C#, using Reflection.In unit testing, the conventional wisdom is to test the public interface of a class. This means that private methods, which are implementation details, are typically tested indirectly through public methods. However, there are times when we might want to… Read More »
In this post, we will see how to use In-Memory Caching to improve the performances of our Minimal APIs.But, why should we use caching?“Caching temporarily stores copies of data so future requests for that data can be served faster. The idea is to reduce the number of expensive calls, such as database queries, making the… Read More »
In this post, we will see how to use the Asynchronous Factory Method pattern in our project.But first of all, what is Asynchronous Factory Method and why should we use it?“In many applications, especially those that involve database operations, initializing data asynchronously during startup is a common requirement. However, constructors in C# do not support… Read More »
In this post, we will see some concurrent collections that we could use in our multi-threaded application where, managing shared data between threads, can introduce complexity and potential error such as race conditions or deadlocks. .NET addresses these cases with its concurrent collections, found in the System.Collections.Concurrent namespace. These collections are designed to be thread-safe… Read More »
In this post, we will see how to use Serilog in our Minimal APIs projects.Serilog is a diagnostic logging library fro .NET applications and we have seen it in the post:C# – Serilog.The Minimal API project that we are going to use here, is the project that we have used in all previous Minimal APIs’… Read More »
In this post, we will see how to use Serilog in our .net applications.But first of all, what is Serilog?Serilog is a diagnostic logging library for .NET applications. It is designed to be easy to configure and extend, offering a rich set of sinks (outputs) and enrichers. One of the key features of Serilog is… Read More »
In this post, we will see the ACID properties and how we can implement it using C#.But first of all: what is ACID?ACID is an acronym that stands for Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability. It’s a set of properties that databases strive to achieve to guarantee that database transactions are reliable, even in the face… Read More »
In this post, we will see what “Fluent Assertions” is and how we can use it in our projects.But first of all, what is “Fluent Assertions”?Fluent Assertions is a popular library for writing more expressive and readable unit tests in C#. It provides a fluent, natural language syntax for asserting the behaviour of our code.For… Read More »
In this post, we will see what is Span<T> in C# and how we can use it to improve performance.But first of all, what is a Span<T>?From Microsoft web site:“System.Span<T> is a new value type at the heart of .NET. It enables the representation of contiguous regions of arbitrary memory, regardless of whether that memory… Read More »
