Using the Wolverine “Side Effect” Model to Simplify Code

Read Original

This article discusses using Wolverine's 'Side Effect' model to simplify code in HTTP endpoints. It demonstrates how returning an ISideEffect record from a handler reduces parameter count and decouples dependencies like audit logging. The approach improves testability by making side effects explicit and easier to verify. The article includes a practical example from CritterWatch, showing before and after code, and highlights the benefits of this pattern for cleaner, more maintainable code.
