Collection validators

HasElements

Validates that a collection has elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasElements();

HasNoElements

Validates that a collection has no elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasNoElements();

HasCountOfElements

Validates that a collection has a given count of elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasCountOfElements(5);

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasElementsMoreThan(5);

HasElementsMoreOrEqualThan

Validates that a collection has equal or more than N elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasElementsMoreOrEqualThan(5);

HasElementsLessThan

Validates that a collection has less than N elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasElementsLessThan(5);

HasElementsLessOrEqualThan

Validates that a collection has equal or less than N elements.

RuleFor(x => x.CollectionProperty).HasElementsLessOrEqualThan(5);
