Question by gaggle · Aug 02, 2015 at 06:18 PM · c#time.timenunitunittest

Time.time and Unittesting can't work together?

Hi,

If a unit test is run from Monodevelop that relies on Time.time, this exception occurs:

 System.MissingMethodException : Cannot find the requested method


E.g. this code:

 [TestFixture]
 public class Tests
 {
     [Test]
     public void TestUnityTime()
     {
         var result = new Foo().UnityTime();
         Assert.Greater(result, 0);
     }
 }

 public class Foo 
 {
     public float UnityTime()
     {
         return Time.time;
     }
 }

To be fair it does make sense that Unity's time doesn't run during a unit test. But, is there a way we can test time-using code in Unittests then? Can I manually start the timer? Have you found a way to mock it? How can one unit test any code that uses Time.time?

Thanks

One way I'm trying now is to switch to this amazing alternative implementation of Time.time:

 public static class Time2
 {
     public static float time
     {
         get
         { 
             float time;
             try
             {
                 time = Time.time;
                 
             } catch (System.MissingMethodException)
             {
                 time = 0.0f;
             }
             return time;
         }
     }
 }

I guess that'll work.

It does though, System.$$anonymous$$issing$$anonymous$$ethodException is thrown when used in a unittest and run directly from $$anonymous$$onodevelop. Try running my post's code yourself.
