Class SnapshotScrubberState

Namespace: SnapshotAssertions

Assembly: SnapshotAssertions.dll

Per-snapshot scrubber state. Maps each original volatile value (a specific GUID, a specific ISO 8601 timestamp, a specific Unix-millis number, etc.) to a stable index, so the same recurring value across the snapshot renders as the same indexed token. State lives for the duration of a single MatchesSnapshot() evaluation and is discarded afterwards.

Methods

GetOrAssignIndex(string, string)

Looks up the index assigned to originalValue within the kind namespace. If the value has not been seen before, assigns and returns the next available index for that kind (zero-based, monotonically increasing).

public int GetOrAssignIndex(string kind, string originalValue)

Parameters

kind string: The scrubber-defined kind namespace (e.g. "guid", "iso8601", "unixms"). Different kinds maintain independent index counters.
originalValue string: The exact substring observed in the snapshot. Equality is ordinal: callers normalise the matched text (e.g. lower-casing GUIDs) before look-up when case-insensitive equality is desired.

Returns

int: The zero-based index of the value within its kind namespace.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException: A required argument is null.
