How to: Save and Retrive Values in View State Asp.net(C#).

What is ViewState?

ViewState is used to maintain the state of controls during page postback and if we save any control values or anything in viewstate we can access those values throughout the page whenever it required for that check below simple example

Default.aspx

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title>View State in asp.net Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <table>
            <tr>
                <td>
                    ViewState Data:
                </td>
                <td>
                    <b>
                        <asp:Label ID="lblString" runat="server" /></b>
                </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td>
                </td>
                <td>
                    <asp:Button ID="btnClick" runat="server" Text="Get ViewState Data" OnClick="btnClick_Click" />
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Default.aspx.cs

Now add following namespaces in your codebehind

using System;

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                string str = "Nikhil Sangani";
                if (ViewState["SampleText"] == null)
                {
                    ViewState["SampleText"] = str;
                }
            }
        }

        protected void btnClick_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            lblString.Text = ViewState["SampleText"].ToString();
        }

here we are using GUID for generate serial numbers and GUID is always unique. Example format: XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. Guid SerialKeyGuid = Guid.NewGuid(); string AccessKey = SerialKeyGuid.ToString("N"); string AccessKeyLength = AccessKey.Substring(0, 28).ToUpper(); char[] serialArray = AccessKeyLength.ToCharArray(); string SerialNumber = ""; int P = 0; for (int B = 0; B < 28; B++) {                 for (P = B; P < 4 + B; P++)                 {                     SerialNumber += serialArray[P];                 }                 if (P == 28)                 {                     break;                 }         ...

How to write Unit Tests in .net

Unit tests are automated tests that verify the behavior code like methods and functions. Writing unit tests is crucial to clean coding, as they help ensure your code works as intended and catches bugs early in the development process. I can share some tips for writing effective unit tests: Write tests for all public methods Every public method in your code should have a corresponding unit test. This helps ensure that your code behaves correctly and catches any unexpected behavior early. public class Calculator { public int Add(int a, int b) { return a + b; } } [TestClass] public class CalculatorTests { [TestMethod] public void Add_ShouldReturnCorrectSum() { // Arrange Calculator calculator = new Calculator(); int a = 1; int b = 2; // Act int result = calculator.Add(a, b); // Assert Assert.AreEqual(3, result); } } Test boundary conditions  Make sure to test boundary conditions, such a...
