Testing Castle windsor Component with PerWebRequest lifestyle

Question

I\'m trying to do some testing with castle windsor involved, in one of my tests I want to check the windsor installers, so I check that the container can resolve my componen

I ended up implementing this extension. ATTN: Must call before loading components with the PerWebRequest lifestyle:

public static class WindsorContainerExtensions
{
    public static IWindsorContainer OverridePerWebRequestLifestyle(this IWindsorContainer container)
    {
        container.Kernel.ComponentModelCreated += model =>
        {
            if (model.IsPerWebRequestLifestyle())
            {
                model.LifestyleType = LifestyleType.Transient;
            }
        };

        return container;
    }

    private static bool IsPerWebRequestLifestyle(this ComponentModel model)
    {
        return model.LifestyleType == LifestyleType.Scoped
            && model.HasAccessorType(typeof(WebRequestScopeAccessor));
    }

    private static bool HasAccessorType(this ComponentModel model, Type type)
        => model.HasExtendedProperty("castle.scope-accessor-type", type);

    private static bool HasExtendedProperty(this ComponentModel model, object key, T expected)
    {
        return model.ExtendedProperties[key] is T actual
            && EqualityComparer.Default.Equals(actual, expected);
    }
}

Requires these imports:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Castle.Core;
using Castle.Facilities.AspNet.SystemWeb;
using Castle.Windsor;
