I am currently writing a C# project and I need to do unit testing for the project. For one of the methods that I need to unit test I make use of an ICollection which is normally populated from the selected items of a list box.
When I create a unit test for the method it creates the line
ICollection icollection = null; //Initialise to an appropriate value
How can I create an instance of this ICollection and an item to the collection?
ICollection is an interface, you can't instantiate it directly. You'll need to instantiate a class that implements ICollection; for example, List<T>. Also, the ICollection interface doesn't have an Add method -- you'll need something that implements IList or IList<T> for that.
Example:
List<object> icollection = new List<object>();
icollection.Add("your item here");
