About

Pester is the ubiquitous test and mock framework for PowerShell. Adding Pester tests to Powershell code will enhance code quality and allows you to start creating predictable changes. Visual Studio Code comes with full support for Pester allowing you to create tests quickly. Pester integrates nicely with TFS, Azure, Github, Jenkins, and other CI servers, allowing you to fully automate your development lifecycle. Pester provides a framework for writing and running tests. Pester is most commonly used for writing unit and integration tests, but it is not limited to just that. It is also a base for tools that validate whole environments, computer deployments, database configurations, and so on. Pester tests can execute any command or script that is accessible to a Pester test file. This includes functions, Cmdlets, Modules, and scripts. Pester can be run locally, where it integrates well with Visual Studio Code, and it can of course be integrated into a build script in a CI pipeline.

About

Writing unit tests can be hard and sometimes good design has to be sacrificed for the sole purpose of testability. Often testability corresponds to good design, but this is not always the case. For example final classes and methods cannot be used, private methods sometimes need to be protected or unnecessarily moved to a collaborator, static methods should be avoided completely and so on simply because of the limitations of existing frameworks. PowerMock is a framework that extends other mock libraries such as EasyMock with more powerful capabilities. PowerMock uses a custom classloader and bytecode manipulation to enable mocking of static methods, constructors, final classes and methods, private methods, removal of static initializers and more. By using a custom classloader no changes need to be done to the IDE or continuous integration servers which simplifies adoption.
