Mvcontrib.MVC3.Testhelper UpdateModel NullReferenceExceuption während des Komponententests

Question

Ich versuche, eine Bearbeitungsaktion auf meinem Controller in ASP.NET MVC 3 zu testen.

Ich habe Mvcontrib.MVC3.TestHelper über Nuget installiert, um meinen Controller-Kontext zu verspotten, erhalte aber immer noch eine NullReferenceException

Mein Code sieht folgendermaßen aus:

 [TestMethod]
    public void it_should_redirect_to_index_after_editing_a_something_successfully()
    {
        var something= new SomeThing
        {
            ID = Guid.NewGuid(),
            CreatedAt = DateTime.Now,
            LastModified = DateTime.Now,
            Owner = "Me",
            Status = "new",
            Title = "my Title",
            Attachments = new List<Attachment>()
        };

        var repo = new FakeRepository();
        var controller = new SomethingsController(repo);
        new TestControllerBuilder().InitializeController(controller);

        var result = controller.Edit(something) as RedirectToRouteResult;
        result.AssertActionRedirect().ToAction<SomethingsController>(x => x.Index());
    }

Der Produktionscode sieht folgendermaßen aus ...

 [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Edit(SomeThing something)
    {
        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            var _something = _repository.GetDocumentByID(something.ID);
            TryUpdateModel(_something);
            _something.LastModified = DateTime.Now;
            _repository.SaveChanges();
            return RedirectToAction("Index","Somethings");
        }
        return View(something);
    }

Und selbst wenn ich UpdateModel oder TryUpdateModel verwende, stürzt es immer mit einer NullReferenceException ab ...

Jede Hilfe, Hinweise wären fantastisch ...

So können Sie vorgehen:

public class Something
{
    public Guid ID { get; set; }
    public DateTime LastModified { get; set; }
    public DateTime CreatedAt { get; set; }
    public string Owner { get; set; }
    public string Status { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
}

public interface ISomeRepository
{
    Something GetDocumentByID(Guid id);
    void SaveChanges();
}

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    private readonly ISomeRepository _repository;
    public HomeController(ISomeRepository repository)
    {
        _repository = repository;
    }

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Edit(Something something)
    {
        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            var _something = _repository.GetDocumentByID(something.ID);
            TryUpdateModel(_something);
            _something.LastModified = DateTime.Now;
            _repository.SaveChanges();
            return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
        }
        return View(something);
    }
}

und der Test:

// arrange
var something = new Something
{
    ID = Guid.NewGuid(),
    CreatedAt = DateTime.Now,
    LastModified = DateTime.Now,
    Owner = "Me",
    Status = "new",
    Title = "my Title",
};
var somethingElse = new Something();
var repo = MockRepository.GenerateStub<ISomeRepository>();
var controller = new HomeController(repo);
new TestControllerBuilder().InitializeController(controller);
repo.Stub(x => x.GetDocumentByID(something.ID)).Return(somethingElse);

var formValues = new FormCollection() 
{
    { "Owner", "some owner" },
};
controller.ValueProvider = formValues.ToValueProvider();

// act
var actual = controller.Edit(something);

// assert
repo.AssertWasCalled(x => x.SaveChanges());
actual
    .AssertActionRedirect()
    .ToAction<HomeController>(x => x.Index());
