一种方法是保护您的方法，并编写一个继承要测试的类的测试fixture。这样，您既没有将方法公开，但是启用了测试。

在我看来，你应该只对类的公共API进行单元测试。

为了对方法进行单元测试，将其设为公共，会破坏封装，暴露实现细节。

一个好的公共API解决了客户端代码的直接目标，并且完全解决了这个目标。

CC -Dprivate=public

“CC”是我使用的系统上的命令行编译器。-Dfoo=bar相当于#define foo bar。因此，这个编译选项有效地将所有私有内容更改为公共。

MbUnit有一个很好的包装，叫做Reflector。

Reflector dogReflector = new Reflector(new Dog());
dogReflector.Invoke("DreamAbout", DogDream.Food);

您还可以从属性中设置和获取值

dogReflector.GetProperty("Age");

关于“私人测试”，我同意…在完美的世界里。做私有单元测试是没有意义的。但在现实世界中，您可能最终希望编写私有测试，而不是重构代码。

在极少数情况下，我想要测试私有函数，我通常会将它们修改为受保护的，并且我已经编写了一个带有公共包装器函数的子类。

类:

...

protected void APrivateFunction()
{
    ...
}

...

测试子类:

...

[Test]
public void TestAPrivateFunction()
{
    APrivateFunction();
    //or whatever testing code you want here
}

...

I don't agree with the "you should only be interested in testing the external interface" philosophy. It's a bit like saying that a car repair shop should only have tests to see if the wheels turn. Yes, ultimately I'm interested in the external behavior but I like my own, private, internal tests to be a bit more specific and to the point. Yes, if I refactor, I may have to change some of the tests, but unless it's a massive refactor, I'll only have to change a few and the fact that the other (unchanged) internal tests still work is a great indicator that the refactoring has been successful.

You can try to cover all internal cases using only the public interface and theoretically it's possible to test every internal method (or at least every one that matters) entirely by using the public interface but you may have to end up standing on your head to achieve this and the connection between the test cases being run through the public interface and the internal portion of the solution they're designed to test may be difficult or impossible to discern. Having pointed, individual tests that guarantee that the internal machinery is working properly is well worth the minor test changes that come about with refactoring - at least that's been my experience. If you have to make huge changes to your tests for every refactoring, then maybe this doesn't make sense, but in that case, maybe you ought to rethink your design entirely. A good design should be flexible enough to allow for most changes without massive redesigns.
