How to get the object from HttpActionResult Ok method (Web Api)? [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can access the returned string by casting the result to OkNegotiatedContentResult and accessing its Content property.

[TestMethod]
public void TestGet()
{
    IHttpActionResult actionResult = controller.Get();
    var contentResult = actionResult as OkNegotiatedContentResult;
    Assert.AreEqual("", contentResult.Content);
}
