I am attempting to create a unit test that checks for a file (e.g. http://images/icon.png) in an asp.net core project. I know how to do it for a specific controller for example.

    [TestMethod]
    public void WebApp_GetFoo()
    {
        var controller = new HomeController();
        var result = (OkObjectResult)controller.GetFoo();
        Assert.AreEqual(200, result.StatusCode);

        dynamic resultModel = DynamicExtensions.ToDynamic(result.Value);

        Assert.AreEqual("The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog", resultModel.Text);
    }

But how does one do it for a simple GET request.

  • You just call the method. You don't need to create GET request. Commented Aug 27, 2017 at 15:39
  • What exactly is it you want to test? Do you have an example of the code to be tested? Commented Aug 27, 2017 at 15:40
  • For example, I have some image files that I want to make sure that they're there like http://<host>/images/icon.png. I guess I can just use FileExists but I would like to run through the stack to make sure routes are correct, etc. Thanks. Commented Aug 27, 2017 at 15:58
  • you just want to check the file exists or also the contents? Commented Aug 27, 2017 at 16:00

    You are most likely not looking for a unit test, but an integration test: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/testing/… Commented Aug 27, 2017 at 16:17
