ILdapConnection still not mockable and testable

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I have found another problem that prevents testability of your library.

Types returned from methods in the ILdapConnection interface, such as LdapResponseQueue and others have only an internal constructor.

When creating a mock of ILdapConnection for testing purposes it’s impossible to setup behaviour for such methods, as there’s no way to construct the returned type.

I am willing to work on this and send you a pull request if you agree to fix this.

Can you share a sample where can I see, how you were able to mock LdapSearchResults?

+1 Currently trying to mock LdapSearchResults with much difficulty. *Edit: I am using version 2.3.8 (from nuget). I see LdapSearchResults implements IEnumerable in the newer version. Any plans to update the nuget package?
