In this article, we’ll discuss how to use jQuery Ajax for ASP.NET Core MVC CRUD Operations using Bootstrap Modal. With jQuery Ajax, we can make HTTP request to controller action methods without reloading the entire page, like a single page application.
To demonstrate CRUD operations – insert, update, delete and retrieve, the project will be dealing with details of a normal bank transaction. GitHub repository for this demo project : https://bit.ly/33KTJAu.
Sub-topics discussed :
In Visual Studio 2019, Go to File > New > Project (Ctrl + Shift + N).
From new project window, Select Asp.Net Core Web Application_._
Once you provide the project name and location. Select Web Application(Model-View-Controller) and uncheck HTTPS Configuration. Above steps will create a brand new ASP.NET Core MVC project.
Let’s create a database for this application using Entity Framework Core. For that we’ve to install corresponding NuGet Packages. Right click on project from solution explorer, select Manage NuGet Packages_,_ From browse tab, install following 3 packages.
Now let’s define DB model class file – /Models/TransactionModel.cs.
public class TransactionModel
{
[Key]
public int TransactionId { get; set; }
[Column(TypeName ="nvarchar(12)")]
[DisplayName("Account Number")]
[Required(ErrorMessage ="This Field is required.")]
[MaxLength(12,ErrorMessage ="Maximum 12 characters only")]
public string AccountNumber { get; set; }
[Column(TypeName ="nvarchar(100)")]
[DisplayName("Beneficiary Name")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "This Field is required.")]
public string BeneficiaryName { get; set; }
[Column(TypeName ="nvarchar(100)")]
[DisplayName("Bank Name")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "This Field is required.")]
public string BankName { get; set; }
[Column(TypeName ="nvarchar(11)")]
[DisplayName("SWIFT Code")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "This Field is required.")]
[MaxLength(11)]
public string SWIFTCode { get; set; }
[DisplayName("Amount")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "This Field is required.")]
public int Amount { get; set; }
[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}")]
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
}
C#Copy
Here we’ve defined model properties for the transaction with proper validation. Now let’s define DbContextclass for EF Core.

Last year, we provided a list of Kubernetes tools that proved so popular we have decided to curate another list of some useful additions for working with the platform—among which are many tools that we personally use here at Caylent. Check out the original tools list here in case you missed it.
According to a recent survey done by Stackrox, the dominance Kubernetes enjoys in the market continues to be reinforced, with 86% of respondents using it for container orchestration.

And as you can see below, more and more companies are jumping into containerization for their apps. If you’re among them, here are some tools to aid you going forward as Kubernetes continues its rapid growth.

This year’s .NET Conf was the largest one yet, with over 80 live sessions across three days that were co-organized and presented by the .NET community and Microsoft. On top of all of that, it also marked the release of .NET 5.0 that brings a full set of new capabilities, performance gains, and new languages features for developers to create amazing apps. If you missed this year’s .NET Conf live stream, don’t worry because we have you covered!

The shift towards microservices and modular applications makes testing more important and more challenging at the same time. You have to make sure that the microservices running in containers perform well and as intended, but you can no longer rely on conventional testing strategies to get the job done.
This is where new testing approaches are needed. Testing your microservices applications require the right approach, a suitable set of tools, and immense attention to details. This article will guide you through the process of testing your microservices and talk about the challenges you will have to overcome along the way. Let’s get started, shall we?
Traditionally, testing a monolith application meant configuring a test environment and setting up all of the application components in a way that matched the production environment. It took time to set up the testing environment, and there were a lot of complexities around the process.
Testing also requires the application to run in full. It is not possible to test monolith apps on a per-component basis, mainly because there is usually a base code that ties everything together, and the app is designed to run as a complete app to work properly.
Microservices running in containers offer one particular advantage: universal compatibility. You don’t have to match the testing environment with the deployment architecture exactly, and you can get away with testing individual components rather than the full app in some situations.
Of course, you will have to embrace the new cloud-native approach across the pipeline. Rather than creating critical dependencies between microservices, you need to treat each one as a semi-independent module.
The only monolith or centralized portion of the application is the database, but this too is an easy challenge to overcome. As long as you have a persistent database running on your test environment, you can perform tests at any time.
Keep in mind that there are additional things to focus on when testing microservices.
Test containers are the method of choice for many developers. Unlike monolith apps, which lets you use stubs and mocks for testing, microservices need to be tested in test containers. Many CI/CD pipelines actually integrate production microservices as part of the testing process.
As mentioned before, there are many ways to test microservices effectively, but the one approach that developers now use reliably is contract testing. Loosely coupled microservices can be tested in an effective and efficient way using contract testing, mainly because this testing approach focuses on contracts; in other words, it focuses on how components or microservices communicate with each other.
Syntax and semantics construct how components communicate with each other. By defining syntax and semantics in a standardized way and testing microservices based on their ability to generate the right message formats and meet behavioral expectations, you can rest assured knowing that the microservices will behave as intended when deployed.
