Unit testing ASP.Net MVC Authorize attribute to verify redirect to login page?

You are testing at the wrong level. The Authorize attribute ensures that the routing engine will never invoke that method for an unauthorized user - the RedirectResult will actually be coming from the route, not from your controller method.

Well you might be testing at the wrong level but its the test that makes sense. I mean, if I flag a method with the authorize(Roles="Superhero") attribute, I don't really need a test if I flagged it. What I (think I) want is to test that an unauthorized user doesn't have access and that an authorized user does.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
