This is the next article from the new series High-Quality Automated Tests. I believe that the code of our automated tests should be treated as a production code. Which means that we should use any app available to ensure its health and quality. This one and the next few articles will be dedicated to a tool called StyleCop. It is the "standard" in the .NET world for code analysis.DefinitionStyleCop is an open source static code analysis tool from Microsoft that checks C# code for conformance to StyleCop’s recommended coding styles and a subset of Microsoft’s .NET Framework Design Guidelines.StyleCop Analyzers for the .NET Compiler PlatformThe StyleCopAnalyzers open source project is similar to EditorConfig. It integrates with all versions of Visual Studio. It contains set of style and consistency rules. The code is checked on a build. If some of the rules are violated warning messaged are displayed. This way you can quickly locate the problems and fix them.If you change the project's setting to treat all warnings as errors and there are any StyleCop warnings the project won't be built.Here is the error message after we applied the configuration.While ago when we were working on the first version of the BELLATRIX test automation framework, I did this research while I was working on a similar feature for our solution.Setup StyleCop for .NET Framework ProjectsThe configuration for .NET framework projects is quite simple. Just install the StyleCop.Analyzers and Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers NuGet packages.Install-Package StyleCop.AnalyzersInstall-Package Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzersConfiguring StyleCop RulesEnable Disable Individual RulesFor the job, we

/> Update="StyleCopeRules.ruleset"> Always Here we instruct the build system to run the code analysis and to use our StyleCop rule set file. Also, we copy the file to the bin folder. If you have done that through the UI skip the last lines.Do Not Run StyleCop AnalysisDo Not Run StyleCop Analysis in a Specific Build ConfigurationSometimes especially for larger projects, the build process takes longer when the code analysis is enabled. So, it is a popular solution the rules to be executed only before check-in, making the developers fix the violations before merging the new code with the main branch. Later when the code is built in Release configuration, the code analysis is not executed to speed-up the continuous integration.To do that you need to add the following MSBuild to your project. It instructs StyleCop to exclude all of your source files if the configuration is set to Release. Include="***.cs" Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'Release' " />Do Not Run StyleCop Analysis for Auto-generated CodeUsually, you do not have control over auto-generated code such as proxy objects, ORM objects, etc. Which means that it doesn't make sense to run the analysis for these files. To do that you just need to add the following comment // on top of your automatically created files.Final WordsIn the next articles from the series, I will show you my favorite StyleCop rules which you should enable for your automated tests.

To your project and make sure it is copied to the bin folder on build. There are a couple of sections regarding the spacing, readability, ordering, indentation and other rules. For best results, stylecop.json should be included in source control. This will automatically propagate the expected settings to all team members working on the project.Below you can find a sample stylecop.json file.{ "$schema": " "settings": { "documentationRules": { "companyName": "Automate The Planet Ltd.", "copyrightText": "This source code is Copyright © {companyName} and MAY NOT be copied, reproduced,published, distributed or transmitted to or stored in any manner without priorwritten consent from {companyName} (bellatrix.solutions).", "documentExposedElements": "false", "documentInternalElements": "false", "documentPrivateElements": "false", "documentPrivateFields": "false" }, "layoutRules": { "newlineAtEndOfFile": "require" }, "orderingRules": { "systemUsingDirectivesFirst": "true", "usingDirectivesPlacement": "outsideNamespace" } }}As you can see, the file is used for different purposes. For example, we tell StyleCop that all using statements should be placed outside the namespace which is not its default behavior. Moreover, we specify project-specific text, such as the name of the company and the structure to use for copyright headers.Setup StyleCop .NET Core and .NET Standard ProjectsThe usage in .NET Core and .NET Standard project is a little bit more tricky. You should again first install the StyleCop.Analyzers NuGet package. Then add the rule set and stylecop.json files to the project. However, as you will find out the Code Analysis tab is missing in the project's properties. So we need to add a few lines to the project's MSBuild file. netstandard2.0 True $(SolutionDir)StyleCopeRules.ruleset Include="$(SolutionDir)stylecop.json" Link="stylecop.json"

Use the standard Visual Studio code analysis rule set files. In the file, you can enable and disable particular rules and configure the severity of violations reported by individual rules. The file should be present in the solution or project folders. You should set it to be always copied to the bin folder.Below you can find a sample rule set file. Your file should have the ruleset extension. Name="StyleCopeRules" Description="StyleCopeRules custom ruleset" ToolsVersion="15.0"> Action="Warning" /> AnalyzerId="StyleCop.Analyzers" RuleNamespace="StyleCop.Analyzers"> Id="SA1101" Action="None" /> Id="SA1108" Action="None" /> Id="SA1115" Action="None" /> Id="SA1116" Action="None" /> Id="SA1118" Action="None" /> Id="SA1123" Action="None" /> Id="SA1129" Action="None" /> Id="SA1200" Action="None" /> Id="SA1201" Action="None" /> Id="SA1202" Action="None" /> Id="SA1208" Action="None" /> Id="SA1300" Action="None" /> Id="SA1306" Action="None" /> Id="SA1308" Action="None" /> Id="SA1309" Action="None" /> Id="SA1310" Action="None" /> Id="SA1311" Action="None" /> Id="SA1401" Action="None" /> Id="SA1402" Action="None" /> Id="SA1407" Action="None" /> Id="SA1408" Action="None" /> Id="SA1516" Action="None" /> Id="SA1600" Action="None" /> Id="SA1601" Action="None" /> Id="SA1602" Action="None" /> Id="SA1604" Action="None" /> Id="SA1611" Action="None" /> Id="SA1612" Action="None" /> Id="SA1615" Action="None" /> Id="SA1623" Action="None" /> Id="SA1633" Action="None" /> Id="SA1649" Action="None" /> Id="SA1652" Action="None" /> Id="SX1101" Action="Warning" /> Id="SX1309" Action="Warning" /> Enable Code AnalysisThe next step is to configure your project to run code analysis with your StyleCop rule set file. Open the project's properties and navigate to the Code Analysis tab. Check the "Enable Code Analysis on Build" checkbox. Also, select your rule set file from the drop-down.Fine Tune the Behavior of Certain RulesYou can fine-tune the behavior of individual StyleCop rules using stylecop.json file. Add this file
