Sitecore FakeDB Deserialisation and Unicorn

Question

Using Sitecore 9.0.1, Im looking at using Sitecore Fake DB for unit testing.

Im interested in using the Deserialisation extension so that I can test using content that's been serialised to disk

Has anyone had any success doing this with Unicorn .yml serialised items? Or is it TDS only?

Answer 1

It does not have to be TDS. You can use items that you have serialized in Sitecore. Go to the Developer Toolbar, and then click on Serialize Item / Serialize Tree.
