ProtoTest.Hosting

Runs a background worker or generic host in-process with the suite: it starts with the run, reads the run's settings and stops with the run.

dotnet add package ProtoTest.Hosting

Includes

  • Registration through AddWorkerHost<TProgram>(); the suite runs the worker's own entry point.
  • Nested workers: AddApplication(...).AddWorkerHost<TProgram>("Billing") follows the application's provider chain: UseEnvironment() leaves the worker to the environment that runs the application, while UseHost() hosts it in this process and bridges the test clock.
  • Run-scoped lifetime: started after the infrastructure registered before it, stopped with the run.
  • The suite's configuration, the run's settings (container connection strings and settings infrastructure values) and AddWorkerHost options reach the worker's normal configuration, in that order of precedence, and are passed to the worker's Main as command-line arguments, so Host.CreateApplicationBuilder(args) reads final-precedence values before Build().
  • Access from a test through Proto.Context.Host<TProgram>() and HostService<TProgram, TService>().

Limits

  • In-process only: a suite running against a published environment has no worker to start. Skip those tests with [RequiresCapability(ProtoCapabilityKinds.Worker)] - or nest the worker under its application, where UseEnvironment() decides from the application's winner and starts nothing.
  • One worker instance per run; the run's state is shared between tests.
  • Only a hosted worker (UseHost()) declares the clock capability and resolves Proto.Context.Host<TProgram>(); a worker the environment runs declares worker only.
  • The worker's Run() never runs; the suite starts and stops its host.
  • A parameterless Main, or one that builds its host without passing args, reads the overlay only when the host is built; options factories and hosted services still see it.
  • Start does not wait for readiness; register a readiness probe before the worker when it depends on a container that is still booting.
