I have gotten a lot of mileage out of .NET using Mocks for unit and integration tests in Visual Studio.

 

Is there an equivalent for the Micro Framework?

 

My eventual goal is to read from 4 sensors and do something with the captured information. Before I get to that goal, I was thinking that I could exercise the other parts of the system by creating "fake inputs", injecting known data into their structures/wrappers, and then debugging with that fake stuff.

 

Is that possible?

 

 

Thanks.

I, too, would be interested in this.

Instead of Unit-testing, you might consider "black boxing" by writing a corresponding set of interfaces through which data Is introduced. You would then make your fake implementations always returning fixed or random dummy data as needed. Later of course, you would make real (non-fake) implementations.
