Introduction

The purpose of this article is to describe the technique I have used to implement the repository pattern in .NET applications. I will provide a brief description of the repository pattern and LINQ-to-SQL. However, if you are unfamiliar with these technologies, you should research them elsewhere. The goals of my implementation are:

• It must be a general purpose design that can be reused for many projects.

• It must facilitate domain driven design.

• It must facilitate unit testing and testing in general.

• It must allow the domain model to avoid dependencies on infrastructure.

• It must provide strongly typed querying.
