# Parallel Test Execution Configuration
2+
3+
This workspace is configured to run all three test projects in parallel in Visual Studio Test Explorer.
4+
5+
## Configuration Files
6+
7+
### `.runsettings` (Solution Root)
8+
- Enables parallel test execution at the assembly level
9+
- `MaxCpuCount=0` uses all available processors to run test assemblies in parallel
10+
- `DisableParallelization=false` ensures parallelization is enabled
11+
12+
### `xunit.runner.json` (In Each Test Project)
13+
Each test project contains an `xunit.runner.json` file with:
14+
- `parallelizeAssembly: true` - Allows tests from this assembly to run in parallel with other assemblies
15+
- `parallelizeTestCollections: true` - Runs test collections within the assembly in parallel
16+
- `maxParallelThreads: 0` - Uses xUnit's default algorithm (processors × 2)
17+
18+
## How to Use in Visual Studio
19+
20+
### Option 1: Configure via Test Explorer Settings
21+
1. Open **Test Explorer** (Test ? Test Explorer)
22+
2. Click the settings icon (??) in the toolbar
23+
3. Select **Configure Run Settings** ? **Select Solution Wide runsettings File**
24+
4. Browse to and select the `.runsettings` file at the solution root
25+
26+
### Option 2: Configure via Visual Studio Settings
27+
1. Go to **Tools** ? **Options**
28+
2. Navigate to **Test** ? **General**
29+
3. Under **Run Settings File**, browse and select the `.runsettings` file
30+
31+
### Option 3: Automatic Detection
32+
Visual Studio will automatically detect and use `.runsettings` in the solution root in most cases.
33+
34+
## Verification
35+
36+
After configuration, when you run all tests:
37+
- The three test projects (UnitTests, IntegrationTests, FunctionalTests) will run in parallel
38+
- Within each project, test collections will also run in parallel
39+
- You should see multiple tests running simultaneously in Test Explorer
40+
41+
## Performance Considerations
42+
43+
**Recommended for:**
44+
- Fast unit tests (UnitTests project)
45+
- Independent integration tests that don't share state
46+
47+
**Use with caution for:**
48+
- Tests using shared resources (databases, files, ports)
49+
- Tests with Testcontainers - these may need collection fixtures to control parallelization
50+
51+
If you encounter issues with FunctionalTests (which use Testcontainers), you may need to:
52+
1. Disable parallelization for that specific project by setting `parallelizeAssembly: false` in its `xunit.runner.json`
53+
2. Use xUnit Collection Fixtures to control which tests can run in parallel
54+
3. Configure Testcontainers to use unique ports/databases per test class
55+
56+
## Disabling Parallel Execution
57+
58+
To disable parallel execution for a specific test project, update its `xunit.runner.json`:
59+
```json
60+
{
61+
"shadowCopy": false,
62+
"parallelizeAssembly": false,
63+
"parallelizeTestCollections": false
64+
}
65+
```
66+
67+
## Command Line Usage
68+
69+
To use the .runsettings file when running tests from the command line:
70+
```bash
71+
dotnet test --settings .runsettings
72+
```
73+
74+

# Testcontainers Implementation for Functional Tests
2+
3+
## Summary
4+
5+
Successfully migrated functional tests from in-memory database to **Testcontainers** with SQL Server 2022. This provides a more realistic testing environment that matches production database behavior.
6+
7+
## Changes Made
8+
9+
### 1. Package References
10+
11+
**Added to `Directory.Packages.props`:**
12+
```xml
13+
<PackageVersion Include="Testcontainers" Version="4.3.0" />
14+
<PackageVersion Include="Testcontainers.MsSql" Version="4.3.0" />
15+
```
16+
17+
**Updated `tests\Clean.Architecture.FunctionalTests\Clean.Architecture.FunctionalTests.csproj`:**
18+
- Removed: `Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory`
19+
- Added: `Testcontainers` and `Testcontainers.MsSql`
20+
21+
### 2. CustomWebApplicationFactory
22+
23+
**File:** `tests\Clean.Architecture.FunctionalTests\CustomWebApplicationFactory.cs`
24+
25+
Key changes:
26+
- Implements `IAsyncLifetime` for proper async initialization/cleanup
27+
- Creates a SQL Server container using `MsSqlBuilder`
28+
- Uses SQL Server 2022 image: `mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2022-latest`
29+
- Applies EF Core migrations instead of `EnsureCreated()`
30+
- Each test run gets a fresh containerized SQL Server instance
31+
32+
```csharp
33+
private readonly MsSqlContainer _dbContainer = new MsSqlBuilder()
34+
.WithImage("mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2022-latest")
35+
.WithPassword("Your_password123!")
36+
.Build();
37+
```
38+
39+
### 3. Test Configuration
40+
41+
Tests now:
42+
- Use real SQL Server running in Docker containers
43+
- Apply actual EF Core migrations (matches production)
44+
- Run against isolated database instances (parallel test safety)
45+
- Clean up containers automatically after tests complete
46+
47+
## Benefits
48+
49+
? **Realistic Testing**: Tests run against actual SQL Server, not in-memory provider
50+
? **Migration Testing**: Validates that migrations work correctly
51+
? **Production Parity**: Database behavior matches production environment
52+
? **Isolation**: Each test class gets its own containerized database
53+
? **Automatic Cleanup**: Containers are disposed after tests complete
54+
55+
## Requirements
56+
57+
- **Docker Desktop** must be running on the development machine
58+
- Tests take slightly longer (~10-13 seconds vs instant with in-memory)
59+
- First run downloads SQL Server 2022 Docker image (~1.5 GB)
60+
61+
## Test Results
62+
63+
All 18 tests passing:
64+
- ? Unit Tests: 15 tests
65+
- ? Functional Tests: 3 tests
66+
- ? Total Duration: ~12 seconds
67+
68+
## Usage
69+
70+
Run tests normally:
71+
```bash
72+
dotnet test
73+
```
74+
75+
Or specifically for functional tests:
76+
```bash
77+
dotnet test tests\Clean.Architecture.FunctionalTests\Clean.Architecture.FunctionalTests.csproj
78+
```
79+
80+
## Notes
81+
82+
- Tests use the "Testing" environment configuration
83+
- SQL Server password: `Your_password123!` (only for test containers)
84+
- Container lifecycle managed by xUnit's `IAsyncLifetime`
85+
- Containers are automatically cleaned up even if tests fail
