Overview of this book

Software architecture is the practice of implementing structures and systems that streamline the software development process and improve the quality of an app. This fully revised and expanded second edition, featuring the latest features of .NET 5 and C# 9, enables you to acquire the key skills, knowledge, and best practices required to become an effective software architect. This second edition features additional explanation of the principles of Software architecture, including new chapters on Azure Service Fabric, Kubernetes, and Blazor. It also includes more discussion on security, microservices, and DevOps, including GitHub deployments for the software development cycle. You will begin by understanding how to transform user requirements into architectural needs and exploring the differences between functional and non-functional requirements. Next, you will explore how to carefully choose a cloud solution for your infrastructure, along with the factors that will help you manage your app in a cloud-based environment. Finally, you will discover software design patterns and various software approaches that will allow you to solve common problems faced during development. By the end of this book, you will be able to build and deliver highly scalable enterprise-ready apps that meet your organization’s business requirements.

Use case – Automating unit tests in DevOps Azure

In this section, we add some unit test projects to the example application we built in Chapter 15, Presenting ASP.NET Core MVC. If you don't have it, you can download it from the Chapter 15, Presenting ASP.NET Core MVC, section of the GitHub repository associated with the book.

As a first step, let's make a new copy of the solution folder and name it PackagesManagementWithTests. Then, open the solution and add it to an xUnit .NET Core C# test project named PackagesManagementTest. Finally, add a reference to the ASP.NET Core project (PackagesManagement), since we will test it, and a reference to the latest version of the Moq NuGet package, since we require mocking capabilities. At this point, we are ready to write our tests.

As an example, we will write unit tests for the Edit method decorated with [HttpPost] of the ManagePackagesController controller, which is shown as follows:

[HttpPost]
