Mocking framework for REEF .NET code
I am writing some code in .NET parts of REEF. I was looking for existing
use of a mocking framework to write my tests against, but could not find
any.
In case my assessment above is correct I would like to propose we use
NSubstitute.
Some of the other frameworks I have considered:
MS Fakes : Requires Visual Studio Professional edition or above
Moq: License -> BSD; Consumption -> NuGet; Active development.
RhinoMocks: License -> BSD; Consumption -> NuGet; No new published NuGet in
a long time.
NSubstitute: License -> BSD; Consumption -> NuGet; Active development.
Syntax comparison:

http://weareadaptive.com/blog/2014/09/30/why-nsubstitute/
I prefer the fluent interface provided by extension methods in NSusbtitute
over lambdas used in Moq and FakeItEasy. NSubstitute has a small set of
features so ramp-up is easy. ReSharper code generation works well with
NSubstitute.
I don't see much of a difference between Moq, NSubstitute and FakeItEasy
otherwise.
If there is any other mocking framework of choice please share.

If either of those claim special support for .NET Core / CoreCLR or are
used by those OSS projects, that would be something to consider, right?

I don't understand what that means.

Hi,
given that we haven't chosen one, you have dibs :-) As long as the
license is compatible, I don't see a reason to favor one over the other
in the abstract.
One dimension would be if either of these support the open source .NET
explicitly.
