Test Guidance
You can Unit Test couple of behaviours, but I will just show you the direction for a single Unit test that just verify whether receive the correct RedirectToAction value. For example,
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
Improving the Testability
In your question you mentioned
I've also heard that the new Membership code is more 'testable' so I
don't need to create my own membership interfaces, etc..
While this is true, I would make a small adjustment so we can make your implementation bit more testable. This way your Unit Test can purely concentrate on the specific behaviour your going test. In other words we can make you SUT (System Under Test) more testable.
await SignInAsync(user, isPersistent: false);
I believe SignInAsync is a private method. There should be some behavior in this method you can probably extract out to a seperate implementation which you can inject in to the SUT. We can call this ISignInManager
public interface ISignInManager {
Task SignInAsync(ApplicationUser user, bool isPersistent);
}
The benefit of this is that now you can inject the behaiovr of an ISignInManager to perform the SignIn tasks and your SUT become more testable. You should see that there will be less mocking/stubbing in your Unit test and make your test easier to write and understand.
Unit Test
You can take the advantage of new async/await usage of the MSTest method. This simplifies complicated and unreliable tests which we used to write.
A Unit Test that verify the correct redirect route controller/action methods, can be written as below.
[TestMethod]
public async Task Register_RegisterValidUser_EnsureRedirectToIndexActionHomeController()
{
// Arrange
var userManagerStub = Substitute.For<IUserManager<ApplicationUser>>();
var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource<IdentityResult>();
tcs.SetResult(new IdentityResult(true));
userManagerStub.CreateAsync(Arg.Any<ApplicationUser>(), Arg.Any<string>()).Returns(tcs.Task);
var signInManagerStub = Substitute.For<ISignInManager>>();
signInManagerStub.Setup(s => s.SignInAsync(It.IsAny<ApplicationUser>(), It.IsAny<bool>())).Returns(Task.FromResult(true));
var sut = new AccountController(userManagerStub) { SignInManager = signInManagerStub.Object };
// Act
var result = await sut.Register(new RegisterViewModel() { Password = "fakePw" }) as RedirectToRouteResult;
// Assert
Assert.AreEqual<string>("Index", result.RouteValues["action"].ToString());
Assert.AreEqual<string>("Home", result.RouteValues["controller"].ToString());
}
The above uses NSubstitute as the isolation framework, but if anyone interested in the Moq version, please see below.
[TestMethod]
public async Task Register_RegisterValidUser_EnsureRedirectToIndexHome()
{
// Arrange
var userManagerStub = new Mock<IUserManager<ApplicationUser>>();
var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource<IdentityResult>();
tcs.SetResult(new IdentityResult(true));
userManagerStub.Setup(s => s.CreateAsync(It.IsAny<ApplicationUser>(), It.IsAny<string>())).Returns(tcs.Task);
var signInManagerStub = new Mock<ISignInManager>();
signInManagerStub.Setup(s => s.SignInAsync(It.IsAny<ApplicationUser>(), It.IsAny<bool>())).Returns(Task.FromResult(true));
var sut = new AccountController(userManagerStub.Object) {SignInManager = signInManagerStub.Object};
// Act
var result = await sut.Register(new RegisterViewModel() { Password = "fakePw" }) as RedirectToRouteResult;
// Assert
Assert.AreEqual<string>("Index", result.RouteValues["action"].ToString());
Assert.AreEqual<string>("Home", result.RouteValues["controller"].ToString());
