Overview

Class to create methods on the calling object at run time. Each of the Azure Resources have different attributes and properties, and they all need to be testable. To do this no methods are hardcoded, each on is craeted based on the information returned from Azure.

The class is a helper class essentially as it creates the methods on the calling class rather than itself. This means that there is less duplication of code and it can be reused easily.
