So I have something very similar to
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Upload()
{
var length = Request.ContentLength;
var bytes = new byte[length];
if (Request.Files != null )
{
if (Request.Files.Count > 0)
{
var successJson1 = new {success = true};
return Json(successJson1, "text/html");
}
}
...
return Json(successJson2,"text/html");
}
I want something like this:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Upload(HttpRequestBase request)
{
var length = request.ContentLength;
var bytes = new byte[length];
if (request.Files != null )
{
if (request.Files.Count > 0)
{
var successJson1 = new {success = true};
return Json(successJson1);
}
}
return Json(failJson1);
}
However this fails, which is annoying as I could make a Mock from the base class and use it.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the Controllers folder and then click Add, then Controller. In the Add Scaffold dialog box, click MVC 5 Controller with views, using Entity Framework, and then click Add. Select Movie (MvcMovie. Models) for the Model class.
You already have a Request property on your controller => you don't need to pass it as action argument.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Upload()
{
var length = Request.ContentLength;
var bytes = new byte[length];
if (Request.Files != null)
{
if (Request.Files.Count > 0)
{
var successJson1 = new { success = true };
return Json(successJson1);
}
}
return Json(failJson1);
}
Now you can mock the Request
in your unit test and more specifically the HttpContext which has a Request property:
// arrange
var sut = new SomeController();
HttpContextBase httpContextMock = ... mock the HttpContext and more specifically the Request property which is used in the controller action
ControllerContext controllerContext = new ControllerContext(httpContextMock, new RouteData(), sut);
sut.ControllerContext = controllerContext;
// act
var actual = sut.Upload();
// assert
... assert that actual is JsonResult and that it contains the expected Data
