Find a better way of accessing the PropertyDictionary

[colinangusmackay]

The PropertyDictionary is a bit cumbersome. Want a way to access it more easily.

• Get the value easily
• Detect when keys exist or don't easily.
• Indexer access covers most scenarios, but may throw exceptions if it doesn't exist (maybe this is an acceptable way to fail the test)

Idea 1

public void ExampleOfUsage()
{
   var log = TestCaptureLogger.GetLogs().First();
   log.HasProperty("SomeProperty").ShouldBeTrue();
   log["SomeProperty"].ShouldBe("SomeValue");
}

Idea 2

public void ExampleOfUsage()
{
   var log = TestCaptureLogger.GetLogs().First();
   LogProperty<string> prop = log["SomeProperty"]; // Always returns something
   prop.Exists.ShouldBeTrue();
   prop.IsOfType<string>().ShouldBeTrue();
   prop.Value.ShouldBe("SomeValue");
   prop.ShouldBe("SomeValue"); // Implicit cast to T
}
