Particular.Approvals

This repo contains our standardized way of using approval tests to verify and highlight any changes to public APIs.

Deployment

Tagged versions are automatically pushed to feedz.io.

Migration to Particular.Approvals

1. Remove ApprovalTests, ApprovalUtilities, and ObjectApproval packages
2. Add Particular.Approvals package
3. Update PublicApiGenerator to latest version
4. Remove <Optimize>False</Optimize> from test project file
5. Remove any [MethodImpl(MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)] from tests using approvals
6. Update tests to use Approver.Verify()
7. Move all approval files into an ApprovalFiles folder in the root of the test project
8. Remove ApprovalTestConfig.cs, TestApprover.cs, etc (anything directly referencing ApprovalTests)

After conversion, an API approval test should look identical to the following (other than adjusting the specific type, of course): https://github.com/Particular/NServiceBus.AzureStorageQueues/blob/master/src/Tests/APIApprovals.cs

If a project isn't multi-targeted you could skip the excludeAttributes, but it wouldn't hurt to have it regardless.
