ISerializable - Roy Osherove's Blog

HI Roy,

I'm getting this on my testing solution when I try to use the SampleTestFixture.cs copied into my solution.  This is using TestDriven.net 2.0.1948 Personal :

TestCase 'M:dbTesting.SampleTestFixture.MyDataRelatedTest'

failed: Couldn't find declaring type with name 'dbTesting.SampleTestFixture'

Do you have an idea what's causing this ?

Thanks for your help!

Hi, I'm using DataRollBack attribute and it works fine with Sql Server...compliments...but now I want to use it even with an application that uses an Oracle 9i db accessed by ODP.NET . Reading your article, I've thought that it must work anyway, because ODP.NET is based upon ADO.NET . Enterprise Services manages transactions at this level...but it doesn't work, or rather, the transaction doesn't roll back...do you have any idea?

Hi, I've forgot to say that the Oracle server is on a remote machine. This is probably the cause of the problem. Of course XtUnit works on the local DTC...it is possible to connect on the ServiceDomain object of a remote machine? And how to do that?

Thanks for your help

I modified the code to use System.Transactions.TransactionScope...thus removing the need for the MSDTC and Enterprise Services.

public class RollBackAttribute:TestProcessingAttributeBase

{

       TransactionScope transactionScope;

[DebuggerStepThrough]

protected override void OnPreProcess()

{

try

{

               transactionScope = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.RequiresNew, new TimeSpan(0,0,0,10000,0));

}

catch(Exception e)

{

OutputDebugMessage("Could not enter into a new transaction:\n" + e.ToString());    

}

}

       [DebuggerStepThrough]

protected override void OnPostProcess()

{

try

{

               Transaction.Current.Rollback();

               transactionScope.Dispose();              

}

catch(Exception e)

{

OutputDebugMessage("Could not leave an existing transaction:\n" + e.ToString());    

}

}

}
