Unit test ASP.NET MVC routes

Hello,

I apologize for the late reply.

I would recommend reading this article by Phil Haack, regarding testing routes in ASP.NET MVC.

The examples in the article are using Moq to fake HttpContextBase, but you could do the same with Isolator:

var fakeHttpContext = Isolate.Fake.Instance<HttpContextBase>();
Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeHttpContext.AppRelativeCurrentExecutionFilePath)
        .WillReturn("~/product/list");

Hope that helps.

Hello igal,
I am not finding the parameter "AppRelativeCurrentExecutionFilePath".
Could u help me here. I have pasted the code taht I wan to test.
----Code-----
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");

routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "Controller1", action = "Action1", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults

);

}
-----------Code--------------

What could be the test for this. I have tryed many times, but still not working.
Your help will be appriciated.

I accidentally left out an important piece when copy pasting code, sorry for that! :oops:

Here's a complete test for the route:

[TestMethod]
public void RouteTest()
{
    RouteCollection routes = new RouteCollection();
    routes.MapRoute(
        "Default", // Route name 
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
        new { controller = "Controller1", action = "Action1", id = UrlParameter.Optional });

    var fakeHttpContext = Isolate.Fake.Instance<HttpContextBase>();
    Isolate.WhenCalled(() => fakeHttpContext.Request.AppRelativeCurrentExecutionFilePath)
        .WillReturn("~/home/index");

    RouteData routeData = routes.GetRouteData(fakeHttpContext);

    Assert.AreEqual("home", routeData.Values["Controller"]);
    Assert.AreEqual("index", routeData.Values["action"]);
}

Also, if you're looking for a way to just visualize and debug your routes, you could use Phil Haack's great tool for that: http://haacked.com/archive/2008/03/13/u ... ugger.aspx

Good luck!

Thanks.
