Class DerivationSelector

Namespace

Microsoft.Accordant

Assembly

Accordant.Operations.dll

Selects which request derivations should be generated during test case generation. Use For(string) to create instances with a fluent API.

Examples

options.DerivationSelectors = new[]
{
    DerivationSelector.For("Delete"),                                  // All Delete derivations
    DerivationSelector.For("Delete").From("Create"),                   // Delete from Create only
    DerivationSelector.For("Delete").From("Create").Variant("IfMatch") // Specific variant
};

Remarks

When generating test cases, derivations can produce many combinations. Use this selector to filter which derivations are actually generated:

• Filter by target operation (which operation is being derived)
• Filter by source operation (what it derives from)
• Filter by variant (e.g., "IfMatch" vs "IfNoneMatch")

Constructors

DerivationSelector()

Creates a new empty DerivationSelector. Prefer using For(string) for better readability.

public DerivationSelector()

Properties

FromOperations

The operations that the derivation sources from. If null, matches derivations from any source operation.

public IList<string> FromOperations { get; set; }

Property Value

IList<string>

Remarks

Currently, only single-source derivations are supported at runtime. This is a list to support future multi-source derivations.

TargetOperation

The name of the operation whose requests are being derived. This is the "target" of the derivation.

public string TargetOperation { get; set; }

Property Value

string

Variant

The specific variant label to match. If null, matches all variants.

public string Variant { get; set; }

Property Value

string

Methods

For(string)

Start building a selector for derivations targeting the specified operation.

public static DerivationSelectorBuilder For(string targetOperation)

Parameters

targetOperation string

The operation whose requests are being derived.

Returns

DerivationSelectorBuilder

A builder for further configuration.
