110-118: Optional: consolidate “Removed” bullets under module heading for brevityTo reduce repetition and keep items concise, consider grouping both removals under

Use the public command `Get-SqlDscServerProtocolName` - instead ([issue #2104](https://github.com/dsccommunity/SqlServerDsc/issues/2104)). - - Removed deprecated private function `Get-ServerProtocolObject` from the - SqlServerDsc.Common module.

92-95: Mocks correctly switched to Get-SqlDscServerProtocol (minor style nit)The refactor to mock
Get-SqlDscServerProtocolinstead of the old privateGet-ServerProtocolObjectis consistent and preserves the expected shapes (IsEnabled,HasMultiIPAddresses,ProtocolProperties, andAlter()behavior) thatDSC_SqlProtocolconsumes. This keeps the resource behavior and tests aligned with the new public helper.Minor style note: in a few places you still use
-MockWith { return $null }when the mock only returns$null. Per the Pester/SqlServerDsc guidelines, you can omit-MockWithentirely in those cases for brevity. This is optional and can be cleaned up later.As per coding guidelines, omitting
-MockWithon$null-only mocks is preferred but not required.Also applies to: 138-151, 185-194, 229-235, 266-272, 741-743, 819-836, 880-897, 939-956, 1004-1021, 1065-1082, 1134-1149, 1192-1207, 1249-1264

82-85: Get-SqlDscServerProtocol mocks look correct (optional cleanup)The mocks have been consistently updated to
Get-SqlDscServerProtocoland return IPAddress/IpAddressProperties structures compatible withDSC_SqlProtocolTcpIp(includingIPAllvsIPxcases andAlter()-time validation), so the refactor to the new public helper keeps behavior intact.Similar to the other test file, a few mocks that only return
$nullstill specify-MockWith; you can drop-MockWiththere to follow the Pester style guidance, but this is non-blocking.As per coding guidelines, omitting
-MockWithfor$null-only mocks is preferred but not mandatory.Also applies to: 123-135, 158-175, 207-223, 258-285, 317-343, 965-968, 997-1008, 1072-1099, 1145-1172, 1219-1243, 1289-1313, 1361-1385, 1436-1447

Learning: For script-based (MOF) DSC resources in UpdateServicesDsc, unit tests should use Initialize-TestEnvironment with variables $script:dscModuleName and $script:dscResourceName, and set -ResourceType 'Mof'. This differs from class-based resource tests which use the simpler $script:moduleName template without Initialize-TestEnvironment.

CHANGELOG.md (1)
40-50: LGTM: clear, scoped “Changed” entries for SqlProtocol/SqlProtocolTcpIpAccurately records the refactor to public commands with correct naming and issue links.
source/DSCResources/DSC_SqlProtocolTcpIp/DSC_SqlProtocolTcpIp.psm1 (1)
106-113: New Get-SqlDscServerProtocol usage is consistent and correctBoth Get-/Set-TargetResource now build
$getSqlDscServerProtocolParameterswithServerName = $computerName,InstanceName = $InstanceName, andProtocolName = 'TcpIp', and callGet-SqlDscServerProtocol. This cleanly replaces the old helper, preserves the existing semantics around using the local machine name, and keeps the null/error handling logic intact.Also applies to: 297-304
source/DSCResources/DSC_SqlProtocol/DSC_SqlProtocol.psm1 (2)
83-90: Good reuse of Get-SqlDscServerProtocolName across Get/Set/TestSwitching from the private protocol-name helper to the public
Get-SqlDscServerProtocolNamein all three paths (Get-/Set-/Test-TargetResource) centralizes protocol metadata resolution and keeps verbose messages in sync with the public API. This is a clean refactor and aligns with the{Verb}-SqlDsc{Noun}naming convention.Also applies to: 232-249, 460-464
98-105: Get-SqlDscServerProtocol integration looks correctThe new
$getSqlDscServerProtocolParametershashtables in Get-/Set-TargetResource useServerName = $computerName,InstanceName = $InstanceName, andProtocolName = $ProtocolNameand then callGet-SqlDscServerProtocol. This maintains the prior behavior (local host for SMO/CIM access) while moving to the public helper. The downstream usage (IsEnabled,HasMultiIPAddresses,ProtocolProperties,Alter()) remains the same, so behavior should be preserved.Also applies to: 255-262
tests/Unit/DSC_SqlProtocolTcpIp.Tests.ps1 (1)
46-48: No action required. The SMO stub path is correct.The code correctly loads SMO stubs from
tests/Unit/Stubs/SMO.csusingJoin-Path -Path $PSScriptRoot -ChildPath 'Stubs\SMO.cs'. The stub file exists at this location, so the path resolves properly and tests will load the stub types without issues.

tests/Unit/DSC_SqlProtocolTcpIp.Tests.ps1 (2)
46-48: Make SMO stub loading idempotent (avoid Add-Type collisions across test files).
Loading SMO stubs is the right move (per repo learnings), butAdd-Type -Path ...SMO.cscan intermittently fail when multiple unit test files load the same stub types in the same PowerShell session.Suggested tweak:
# Load the SMO stub types -Add-Type -Path (Join-Path -Path $PSScriptRoot -ChildPath 'Stubs\SMO.cs') +if (-not ('Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server' -as [System.Type])) +{ + Add-Type -Path (Join-Path -Path $PSScriptRoot -ChildPath 'Stubs\SMO.cs') +}Based on learnings, also ensure unit tests are executed in a new PowerShell session after SMO.cs changes so the new types are picked up consistently.
1068-1096: Simplify the heavyNew-Object | Add-Membermock objects; avoid backtick continuations.
These mocks work, but they’re hard to read/maintain and they rely on backticks inside theAltermethod conditionals. Consider using[pscustomobject]@{}for the shape and onlyAdd-Memberfor theAlterscriptmethod.Example rewrite for one block (apply similarly to the other repeated ones):
Mock -CommandName Get-SqlDscServerProtocol -MockWith { - return New-Object -TypeName PSObject | - Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name 'IPAddresses' -Value @{ - Name = 'IPAll' - IPAll = New-Object -TypeName PSObject | - Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name 'IPAddressProperties' -Value @{ - TcpPort = New-Object -TypeName PSObject | - Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name 'Value' -Value '1433' -PassThru -Force - TcpDynamicPorts = New-Object -TypeName PSObject | - Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name 'Value' -Value '' -PassThru -Force - } -PassThru -Force - } -PassThru | - Add-Member -MemberType ScriptMethod -Name 'Alter' -Value { + $protocol = [pscustomobject]@{ + IPAddresses = @{ + Name = 'IPAll' + IPAll = [pscustomobject]@{ + IPAddressProperties = @{ + TcpPort = [pscustomobject]@{ Value = '1433' } + TcpDynamicPorts = [pscustomobject]@{ Value = '' } + } + } + } + } + + return ($protocol | Add-Member -MemberType ScriptMethod -Name 'Alter' -Value { $ipAddressProperties = $this.IPAddresses['IPAll'].IPAddressProperties - - if ($ipAddressProperties['TcpDynamicPorts'].Value -eq '0' ` - -and $ipAddressProperties['TcpPort'].Value -eq '') + if ( + ($ipAddressProperties['TcpDynamicPorts'].Value -eq '0') -and + ($ipAddressProperties['TcpPort'].Value -eq '') + ) { InModuleScope -ScriptBlock { $script:wasMethodAlterCalled = $true } } - } -PassThru -Force + } -PassThru -Force) }The assertion update to
$script:wasMethodAlterCalled | Should -BeTrueis a good, direct signal that the mockAlter()was invoked.Also applies to: 1120-1121, 1141-1169, 1215-1240, 1285-1310, 1357-1382, 1432-1444

Learning: For script-based (MOF) DSC resources in UpdateServicesDsc, unit tests should use Initialize-TestEnvironment with variables $script:dscModuleName and $script:dscResourceName, and set -ResourceType 'Mof'. This differs from class-based resource tests which use the simpler $script:moduleName template without Initialize-TestEnvironment.

Learning: In PowerShell, users expect to receive $null when no objects are found or when a non-terminating error occurs, rather than empty arrays. This is normal PowerShell behavior and should be maintained in DSC commands.

82-83: Mocks updated toGet-SqlDscServerProtocollook consistent with the refactor.
The new mock shapes (returning$null,IPAddressesas an array for “missing group”, and hashtable-styleIPAddressesfor specific groups) read as reasonable coverage forGet-TargetResource/Set-TargetResourcecall paths.Only thing to keep an eye on: keep the mocked
IPAddressesstructure consistent with what the resource actually expects for each path (array-vs-hashtable), since the tests use both patterns now.Also applies to: 121-133, 156-172, 205-222, 256-283, 315-342, 963-964, 993-1005
