I am trying to start a new MVC project with tests and I thought the best way to go would have 2 databases. 1 for testing against and 1 for when I run the app and use it (also test really as it's not production yet).
For the test database I was thinking of putting create table scripts and fill data scripts within the test setup method and then deleting all this in the tear down method.
I am going to be using Linq to SQL though and I don't think that will allow me to do this?
Will I have to just go the ADO route if I want to do it this way? Or should I just use a mock object and store data as an array or something?.
Any tips on best practices?
How did Jeff go about doing this for StackOveflow?
