Episode 89 of Visual Studio Toolbox

In this episode, I am joined by Carsten Duellmann and Ricardo Wickel, who show us how to improve our unit test using Microsoft Fakes. Fakes help you isolate the code you are testing by replacing other parts of the application with stubs or shims. These are small pieces of code that are under the control of your tests. By isolating your code for testing, you know that if the test fails, the cause is there and not somewhere else. Stubs and shims also let you test your code even if other parts of your application are not working yet.
