Question

Consider a method in a .NET assembly:

public static string GetSecurityContextUserName()
{             
 //extract the username from request              
 st

Have a look at this http://haacked.com/archive/2007/06/19/unit-tests-web-code-without-a-web-server-using-httpsimulator.aspx

Using httpSimulator class,You will be able to do pass a HttpContext to handler

HttpSimulator sim = new HttpSimulator("/", @"C:\intepub\?")
.SimulateRequest(new Uri("http://localhost:54331/FileHandler.ashx?
ticket=" + myticket + "&fileName=" + path));

FileHandler fh = new FileHandler();
fh.ProcessRequest(HttpContext.Current);

HttpSimulator implement what we need to get a HttpContext instance. So you don't need to use Moq here.
