CRM Testing Best Practices

Testing is the important part of every development project. Here we will discuss what are the best practices we should follow before delivering a project.

Please follow the best practices for testing CRM projects.

Honestly the Unit testing in Dynamics CRM Customization is underutilized by developers. But there are always a way to do unit test of the custom code we write.

1. Being a CRM Developer do Unit Test at first step. For this you can use xRM Test Framework to accelerate the testing.
2. Prepare Test scripts and the steps of testing to cover all test scenarios.
3. Use Plugin Testing Tool to unit test the CRM Plugins. here is a good article on this regards.
4. Sometimes I do copy the plugin code into a .net console app to test if it works fine before registering the plugin.
5. Like Unit Test the Testing should perform the Performance testing, Load Testing etc.
6. Use FakeXrmEasy framework for testing.
