test: add comprehensive unit tests for Common extension methods to improve coverage

[Copilot]

Overview

This PR adds comprehensive unit tests for several Common extension methods that previously had little or no test coverage, significantly improving the overall test quality of the Moq.Analyzers assembly.

Changes

Added 20 new unit tests across 5 new test files, focusing on Common extension methods that are fundamental building blocks used throughout the analyzers:

New Test Files Created

1. SyntaxNodeExtensionsTests.cs (3 tests)

   • Tests for finding locations of syntax nodes by symbol matching
   • Covers happy path, not found scenarios, and null semantic model handling

2. ITypeSymbolExtensionsTests.cs (3 tests)

   • Tests for traversing type hierarchy with GetBaseTypesAndThis()
   • Covers derived classes, simple classes, and interfaces

3. NamedTypeSymbolExtensionsTests.cs (4 tests)

   • Tests for EventHandler and Action delegate detection
   • Covers EventHandler<T>, Action, Action<T>, and negative cases

4. InvocationExpressionSyntaxExtensionsTests.cs (4 tests)

   • Tests for extracting mocked members from Moq Setup calls
   • Covers method invocations, property access, and null handling

5. IMethodSymbolExtensionsTests.cs (6 tests)

   • Tests for method overload analysis and parameter type matching
   • Covers finding overloads, matching parameter types, and edge cases

Coverage Impact

Files Achieving 100% Line Coverage

• ITypeSymbolExtensions: 16/16 lines (100%)
• NamedTypeSymbolExtensions: 18/18 lines (100%)
• SyntaxNodeExtensions: 24/24 lines (100%)
• KnownSymbols: 30/30 lines (100%)
• MoqKnownSymbolExtensions: 6/6 lines (100%)

Files Achieving High Coverage (75%+)

• ISymbolExtensions: 93.7% (268/286 lines)
• EventSyntaxExtensions: 91.3% (190/208 lines)
• MoqKnownSymbols: 87.7% (100/114 lines)
• IOperationExtensions: 83.6% (92/110 lines)
• IMethodSymbolExtensions: 82.4% (84/102 lines)
• DiagnosticExtensions: 81.0% (34/42 lines)
• MoqVerificationHelpers: 80.6% (58/72 lines)
• SemanticModelExtensions: 77.9% (190/244 lines)
• InvocationExpressionSyntaxExtensions: 77.3% (34/44 lines)

Testing Approach

• All tests follow existing project patterns using xUnit
• Tests cover happy paths, edge cases, and null/error handling
• Used Roslyn APIs to create realistic test scenarios with syntax trees and semantic models
• Resolved analyzer conflicts using pragma directives where necessary
• All 1894 tests pass successfully (20 new tests added)

Related Issues

Addresses #641 - Part of the initiative to improve code coverage for the Moq.Analyzers assembly as outlined in #639.

Validation

# All tests pass
dotnet test --no-build -c Debug
# Test summary: total: 1894, failed: 0, succeeded: 1894, skipped: 0

# Coverage generated successfully
dotnet test --settings ./build/targets/tests/test.runsettings --no-build -c Debug

The Common extension methods are now well-tested, providing confidence in these fundamental building blocks used throughout the analyzer implementation.

<issue_title>Add or improve tests to cover uncovered lines, branches, and edge cases</issue_title> <issue_description>Parent: rjmurillo/moq.analyzers#639

Sub-task Details

• [ ] Write new tests for uncovered lines and branches identified in the coverage report.
• [ ] Add tests for edge cases and error conditions, including early-out checks where practical.
• [ ] Ensure tests follow project patterns (e.g., data-driven [Theory]/[MemberData]).
• [ ] Review and improve existing tests for completeness and clarity.
• [ ] Validate coverage improvements by re-running Cobertura analysis.

This issue is a sub-task of rjmurillo/moq.analyzers#639 (Explainer: Achieve 100% Code Coverage for Moq.Analyzers Assembly).</issue_description>

<agent_instructions>Context & Current State Current Coverage Baseline (as of 2025-10-10):

Moq.Analyzers Assembly: 86.89% line coverage, 73.25% branch coverage Gap to Goal: ~13% lines, ~27% branches need coverage Parent Initiative: Part of #639 (100% coverage explainer) and coordinates with #627 (CRAP reduction) Completed Work:

✅ Issue #643 (Documentation of impractical-to-test paths) - Closed 2025-09-19 Dependencies & Coordination:

Must coordinate with #642 (Refactoring for testability) - Some gaps may require refactoring first Inform from #640 (Assessment) - Use coverage gap analysis to prioritize testing efforts Leverage #687 (Diagnostic message testing) - Ensure diagnostic tests use new patterns Reference #627 sub-issues (#629-#632) - High-CRAP methods need testing priority Prioritization Strategy Tier 1: Critical Paths (Do First) Focus testing effort on these high-value areas:

Diagnostic Message Generation

All DiagnosticDescriptor usage Message format argument substitution Description content validation Reference #687 for diagnostic testing patterns High-CRAP Methods (from issue #627 analysis)

Methods in #629 (Enumerable/Array extensions) Methods in #630 (Method overloads/invocation analysis) Methods in #631 (Diagnostic/edit properties) Target: Get CRAP scores below 10 Core Analyzer Analysis Paths

Initialize() method registration logic Analyze() method main branches Early-exit conditions (null checks, type guards) Error/edge case handling Tier 2: Branch Coverage Gaps (Do Second) Current 73.25% branch coverage means ~27% of decision points uncovered:

Conditional Logic Branches

if/else statements with uncovered branches switch expressions with missing cases Ternary operators with one path uncovered Short-circuit evaluation paths (&&, ||) Exception Handling Paths

try/catch blocks with uncovered catch paths Exception type-specific handlers Finally blocks Null Coalescing & Pattern Matching

?? and ?. operator fallback paths Pattern matching is expressions switch pattern expressions Tier 3: Edge Cases (Do Third) Boundary Conditions

Empty collections Single-element collections Null/empty string values Zero/negative numbers Moq-Specific Edge Cases

Generic type constraints Interface vs. class mocking Protected member scenarios Async method setups

Coordination Points With Issue #642 (Refactoring) Some gaps may be hard to test due to code structure Document these in issue #642 comments Don't write contrived tests just to hit coverage - refactor instead Stop condition: If you spend >30 min trying to test a method, escalate to #642 With Issue #640 (Assessment) Use assessment output to prioritize Focus on files with <80% coverage first Cross-reference with CRAP scores from #627 With Issue #687 (Diagnostic Testing) Use DiagnosticResultBuilder patterns from #687 Ensure all diagnostic messages have format argument tests Verify descriptions are not empty Acceptance Criteria Checklist Before marking this issue complete:

Coverage metrics improved: Re-run coverage and document new line/branch % All Tier 1 gaps addressed: Critical paths have test coverage Tier 2 branch gaps prioritized: Top 10 branch gaps have tests or documented in #642 Test patterns followed: All new tests use [Theory]/[MemberData] or AllAnalyzersVerifier Diagnostic spans validated: All diagnostic tests verify exact location Edge cases documented: MemberData methods have descriptive test case names Build passes: dotnet build completes with no warnings All tests pass: dotnet test shows 100% pass rate Formatted code: dotnet format has been run Coverage report included: PR includes before/after coverage screenshots/logs Anti-Patterns to Avoid ❌ DON'T DO THIS:

Writing tests that just call code without assertions Achieving coverage through contrived, unrealistic scenarios Testing implementation details instead of behavior Copying tests from other analyzers without understanding Ignoring test failures from existing analyzers ✅ DO THIS INSTEAD:

Write tests that verify specific behaviors and edge cases Use realistic Moq usage patte...
