I probably should have said that as a reply to the Scott Gu article.
From that article: "Unit Testable: The new view engine implementation will support the ability to unit test views (without requiring a controller or web-server, and can be hosted in any unit test project – no special app-domain required)."
I was wondering how that would work, since as you said, they're notoriously hard to test.
- hackinthebochs 16y agoI think the main point with testable views is that the default asp.net view engine is completely coupled to the asp.net runtime. It was impossible to instantiate a view engine instance and render a view inside the test framework without creating a special app-domain in which to host the test. I had to wrestle with this just last week, it was a major pain in the ass to work around this limitation.
