TypeMock with Ivonna giveaway!

Being a TypeMock MVP, I have been given a license of the newly released TypeMock and Ivonna bundle to give away to a reader of my blog. The first one to say nice things in the comments of this post will receive a free license!

I have been using TypeMock for several years and it has become an extremely valuable tool for creating my tests. Especially since I started to tuck away all my data access stuff into Entity Framework. I must honestly say that I haven’t used Ivonna in a real project yet, but playing around with it shows that it has a lot of power. Lightning fast testing of my ASP.Net stuff is really great. And since it is just a plugin to TypeMock, it is really easy to get started with.

Here is the official marketing about the two bundled products:

Typemock Isolator
Typemock Isolator is a .NET unit testing tool that enables developers to write simpler and maintainable unit tests. With Isolator, developers can create fake objects and test against them, instead of testing against external code. This helps developers to eliminate dependencies, test their code in isolation and achieve better code coverage, ultimately saving time and money, and delivering their code in a shorter period of time. Typemock Isolator gives .NET developers the power to unit test their code, by making unit tests easy to write and automate.
Typemock Ltd is an agile software development company founded in 2004 that creates solutions for simple and easy unit testing.

Ivonna
Ivonna creates and runs ASP.NET requests. Ivonna enables you to examine the intrinsic objects such as the Page object, execute in-process ASP.NET requests (no Web server required), to execute multiple requests in one test method, including postbacks and more. Ivonna 2.0, due to launch soon, includes brand-new features such as:

  • test Web controls without adding them to a page
  • add, remove, or replace HttpModules
  • use a separate configuration file for your tests
  • extend the framework by adding custom CThru aspects

Ivonna 2 will provide full support for ASP.NET MVC.

 The race is on!  :-)

[EDIT]
The race is off. Frode was quick with the first comment, and will receive a TypeMock with Ivonna bundle license.
