The DataSourceAttribute type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  Name Description
Public method DataSourceAttribute(String) Initializes a new instance of the DataSourceAttribute class. This instance will be initialized with a data provider and connection string associated with the setting name.
Public method DataSourceAttribute(String, String) Initializes a new instance of the DataSourceAttribute class. This instance will be initialized with a connection string and table name.
Public method DataSourceAttribute(String, String, String, DataAccessMethod) Initializes a new instance of the DataSourceAttribute class. This instance will be initialized with a data provider, connection string, data table and data access method to access the data source.

Properties

  Name Description
Public property ConnectionString Gets a value representing the connection string for the data source.
Public property DataAccessMethod Gets the method used to access the data source.
Public property DataSourceSettingName Gets a value indicating the setting name used to identify data source connection information stored in a configuration file.
Public property ProviderInvariantName Gets a value representing the data provider of the data source.
Public property TableName Gets a value indicating the table name providing data.
Public property TypeId When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method GetHashCode Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method IsDefaultAttribute When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method Match When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Explicit Interface Implementations

  Name Description
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetIDsOfNames Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetTypeInfo Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#GetTypeInfoCount Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.)
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method System#Runtime#InteropServices#_Attribute#Invoke Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Remarks

The DataSourceAttribute class provides two ways to specify data source information for data-driven tests. The first way specifies information through a connection string, provider information, and source table name passed to the DataSourceAttribute.

Connection String Example:

[DataSource("Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=MySource;Integrated] Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=MyCatalog;Persist Security Info=False", "MyTable")]

The second way passes a single argument to the attribute that specifies the configuration setting located in the app.config file.

Configuration Setting Example:

[DataSource("dataSourceNameFromConfigFile")]

Note

Different data providers use different connection strings. The name of the provider is a part of connection string.

For more information about using the app.config file for specifying a data source, see Walkthrough: Using a Configuration File to Define a Data Source.

For more information about data-driven tests, see Data-Driven Unit Tests.

Examples

The following code contains the class and method to test.

using System;

namespace BankAccountNS
{
    public class BankAccount
    {
        private string custName;
        private double bal;

        public BankAccount(string customerName, double balance)
        {
            custName = customerName;
            bal = balance;
        }

        public double Balance
        { get { return bal; } }

        public void Debit(double amount)
        {
            if (amount < 0)
                throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("amount");
            bal -= amount;
        }
    }
}
Imports System

Namespace BankAccountNS
    Public Class BankAccount
        Private customerName As String
        Private bal As Double

        Public Sub New(ByVal customerName2 As String, ByVal balance As Double)
            customerName = customerName2
            bal = balance
        End Sub

        Public ReadOnly Property Balance() As Double
            Get
                Return bal
            End Get
        End Property

        Public Sub Debit(ByVal amount As Double)
            If amount < 0 Then
                Throw New ArgumentOutOfRangeException("amount")
            End If
            bal -= amount
        End Sub
    End Class
End Namespace

The following test will pass. It uses the sample.mdb access database that contains the following data in Table1.
