Summary
Replace NSubstitute with TUnit.Mocks as the mocking library used in NetEvolve.Extensions.Hosting.WinForms.Tests.Unit.
We already use TUnit as the test framework across the test projects. NSubstitute is currently referenced only in NetEvolve.Extensions.Hosting.WinForms.Tests.Unit and used in 1 file for creating mocks/substitutes:
IHostBuilderExtensionsTests.cs
Motivation / Benefits
- One framework instead of two:
TUnit.Mocks is part of the TUnit ecosystem we already depend on for the test runner, assertions, and data-driven tests. Consolidating removes a second, independently-versioned dependency (NSubstitute + Castle.Core).
- Source-generated mocks, no runtime proxying: NSubstitute relies on Castle DynamicProxy to generate proxy types at runtime via reflection/IL emission.
TUnit.Mocks generates mock implementations at compile time via a Roslyn source generator, giving faster test startup and compile-time errors instead of runtime failures.
- Full AOT/trimming compatibility.
- Smaller dependency surface: drops the transitive dependency on Castle.Core.
Scope
- Add
TUnit.Mocks package reference to tests/NetEvolve.Extensions.Hosting.WinForms.Tests.Unit/NetEvolve.Extensions.Hosting.WinForms.Tests.Unit.csproj.
- Migrate the
Substitute.For<T>() usage in IHostBuilderExtensionsTests.cs to the equivalent TUnit.Mocks API.
- Remove the
NSubstitute package reference once migration is complete.
