Bookmark Collection: Retrieving a bookmark that is not in the collection

  • Article

Let's see where we were...

  • Retrieve a Bookmark that is not in the collection, return null

The test for this looks like this:

[

Test]
public void RetrieveABookmarkNotInCollection()
{
Assert.IsNull(collection[exampleDotComLabel]);
}

When I run this I get the following error:

BookmarkCollectionFixture.RetrieveABookmarkNotInCollection : System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException : The given key was not present in the dictionary.

Unfortunately it does not return null like I want it to. I guess I will have to write some code. I need to modify the Indexer to check to see if the label is in the collection. If not it should return null. Here's the code:

public Uri this[string label]
{
get
{
if (!dictionary.ContainsKey(label)) return null;

return dictionary[label];
}
}

I compile and run and the tests pass. Let's move on. The next post will address the following tests:

  • Add a Bookmark with a null label, expect ArgumentNullException
  • Add a Bookmark with a null URL, expect ArgumentNullException

Surveying the rest of the tests in the test list indicates that there is not much left so I should be able to finish up the task in the next couple of posts.
