asp.net mvc: how to mock Url.Content(“~”)?

Question

anybody knows how to mock Url.Content(\"~\") ?

(BTW: I\'m using Moq)

Answer 1

this is a method of mine that mocks the url.content (and also sets the IsAjaxRequest() to true)

public static void SetContextWithAjaxRequestAndUrlContent(this BaseController controller)
{
    var routes = new RouteCollection();
    RouteConfigurator.RegisterRoutesTo(routes);


    var httpContextBase = new Mock();
    var request = new Mock();
    var respone = new Mock();


    httpContextBase.Setup(x => x.Request).Returns(request.Object);
    httpContextBase.Setup(x => x.Response).Returns(respone.Object);

    request.Setup(x => x.Form).Returns(new NameValueCollection());
    request.SetupGet(x => x.Headers).Returns(new System.Net.WebHeaderCollection {{"X-Requested-With", "XMLHttpRequest"}});
    request.Setup(o => o.ApplicationPath).Returns("/Account");
    request.Setup(o => o["X-Requested-With"]).Returns("XMLHttpRequest");

    respone.Setup(o => o.ApplyAppPathModifier("/Account")).Returns("/Account");

    controller.ControllerContext = new ControllerContext(httpContextBase.Object, new RouteData(), controller);

    controller.Url = new UrlHelper(new RequestContext(controller.HttpContext, new RouteData()), routes);
}
