Каково различие между nohup и демоном?

Как описано в моего ответа - Как выполнить модульный тест GetNewValues ​​(), который содержит функцию EntityFunctions.AddDays , вы можете использовать посетитель выражения запроса для замены вызовов функций EntityFunctions с вашими собственными реализациями, совместимыми с LINQ To Objects.

Реализация будет выглядеть так:

using System;
using System.Data.Objects;
using System.Linq;
using System.Linq.Expressions;

static class EntityFunctionsFake
{
    public static DateTime? TruncateTime(DateTime? original)
    {
        if (!original.HasValue) return null;
        return original.Value.Date;
    }
}
public class EntityFunctionsFakerVisitor : ExpressionVisitor
{
    protected override Expression VisitMethodCall(MethodCallExpression node)
    {
        if (node.Method.DeclaringType == typeof(EntityFunctions))
        {
            var visitedArguments = Visit(node.Arguments).ToArray();
            return Expression.Call(typeof(EntityFunctionsFake), node.Method.Name, node.Method.GetGenericArguments(), visitedArguments);
        }

        return base.VisitMethodCall(node);
    }
}
class VisitedQueryProvider : IQueryProvider
    where TVisitor : ExpressionVisitor, new()
{
    private readonly IQueryProvider _underlyingQueryProvider;
    public VisitedQueryProvider(IQueryProvider underlyingQueryProvider)
    {
        if (underlyingQueryProvider == null) throw new ArgumentNullException();
        _underlyingQueryProvider = underlyingQueryProvider;
    }

    private static Expression Visit(Expression expression)
    {
        return new TVisitor().Visit(expression);
    }

    public IQueryable CreateQuery(Expression expression)
    {
        return new VisitedQueryable(_underlyingQueryProvider.CreateQuery(Visit(expression)));
    }

    public IQueryable CreateQuery(Expression expression)
    {
        var sourceQueryable = _underlyingQueryProvider.CreateQuery(Visit(expression));
        var visitedQueryableType = typeof(VisitedQueryable<,>).MakeGenericType(
            sourceQueryable.ElementType,
            typeof(TVisitor)
            );

        return (IQueryable)Activator.CreateInstance(visitedQueryableType, sourceQueryable);
    }

    public TResult Execute(Expression expression)
    {
        return _underlyingQueryProvider.Execute(Visit(expression));
    }

    public object Execute(Expression expression)
    {
        return _underlyingQueryProvider.Execute(Visit(expression));
    }
}
public class VisitedQueryable : IQueryable
    where TExpressionVisitor : ExpressionVisitor, new()
{
    private readonly IQueryable _underlyingQuery;
    private readonly VisitedQueryProvider _queryProviderWrapper;
    public VisitedQueryable(IQueryable underlyingQuery)
    {
        _underlyingQuery = underlyingQuery;
        _queryProviderWrapper = new VisitedQueryProvider(underlyingQuery.Provider);
    }

    public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
    {
        return _underlyingQuery.GetEnumerator();
    }

    IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()
    {
        return GetEnumerator();
    }

    public Expression Expression
    {
        get { return _underlyingQuery.Expression; }
    }

    public Type ElementType
    {
        get { return _underlyingQuery.ElementType; }
    }

    public IQueryProvider Provider
    {
        get { return _queryProviderWrapper; }
    }
}

А вот пример использования с TruncateTime:

var linq2ObjectsSource = new List() { null }.AsQueryable();
var visitedSource = new VisitedQueryable(linq2ObjectsSource);
// If you do not use a lambda expression on the following line,
// The LINQ To Objects implementation is used. I have not found a way around it.
var visitedQuery = visitedSource.Select(dt => EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(dt));
var results = visitedQuery.ToList();
Assert.AreEqual(1, results.Count);
Assert.AreEqual(null, results[0]);
