The RouteConfig class in the App_Start sub-directory should be adjusted so that the default Controller is Test. Place your 'test' directory within the Views directory and, if you haven't already, create a TestController. RouteConfig should look like this:
public class RouteConfig
{
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Test", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
}

thats what I am looking for I've added a ActionResult in my TestController which returns => { return new FilePathResult("~/test/index.html", "text/html"); }
The easiest way is to put your "test/index.html" as default document in IIS.
If you really want to do it programmatically you'll have to create an action to handle your request and map your default route to it.
Route:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "StaticFile", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Controller/Action:
public class StaticFileController : Controller
{
// GET: StaticFile
[AllowAnonymous]
public FileContentResult Index()
{
string imageFile = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/Test/Index.html");
byte[] bytes = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(imageFile);
return File(bytes, "text/html");
}
}
default route(what you are looking for): msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc668201.aspx#Anchor_3
