Question

I have a very simple method I’m trying to test. _interactionService puts up dialog that asks the user for confirmation about deleting the customer. If the appropriate button is clicked on the box the supplied action is called. The action manipulates the context and saves changes. After the save is complete another action is called.

    private void Delete(object entity)
{
    _interactionService.ShowConfirmationBox("Delete?", "Are you sure you want to delete this customer?", () =>
        {
            Customer customer = entity as Customer;
            Context.Attach(customer);
            Context.Delete(customer);
            Context.Save(() => DoSomethingElseWhenSaveComplete);
        });
}

I’m at a loss as to how to test this method. I have mocked the service and the context, but how to test the closures?

If the context is mocked, then you can use a callback in your test:

Action saveAction = null;
contextMock
  .Setup(c => c.Save(It.IsAny<Action>())
  .Callback<Action>(a => saveAction = a);

// Call delete...

Assert.IsNotNull(saveAction);

saveAction();

// Assert that DoSomethingElseWhenSaveCompleted was done
