Overview of this book

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a powerful tool. It has many unique features that empower organisations to bridge common business challenges and technology pitfalls that would usually hinder the adoption of a CRM solution. This book sets out to enable you to harness the power of Dynamics 365 and cater to your unique circumstances. We start this book with a no-code configuration chapter and explain the schema, fields, and forms modeling techniques. We then move on to server-side and client-side custom code extensions. Next, you will see how best to integrate Dynamics 365 in a DevOps pipeline to package and deploy your extensions to the various SDLC environments. This book also covers modern libraries and integration patterns that can be used with Dynamics 365 (Angular, 3 tiers, and many others). Finally, we end by highlighting some of the powerful extensions available. Throughout we explain a range of design patterns and techniques that can be used to enhance your code quality; the aim is that you will learn to write enterprise-scale quality code.

Integration testing your plugin end-to-end


In this recipe we will write an integration test to verify our plugin correctness. We will replicate the user-driven triggers (usually done through the user interface) using the Dynamics 365 APIs. We will also create the records we are testing, and we change the state of the record. Then, we will verify that the synchronous plugin triggered and executed the expected business logic.

Integration tests like these are valuable when implementing server-side extensions on your Dynamics 365 instance. You will often find yourself changing your plugin, redeploying it, and testing your changes manually. You can automate the last step using the API to streamline the testing part without relying on the web UI.

Getting ready

Here we will run the integration test on the first plugin created in the Creating your first plugin recipe in Chapter 4, Server-Side Extensions. You can also run the test on the refactored plugin described in Refactoring your plugin using a...
