    <p>I have an MVC 4 application that I'm building unit tests for. In my GameController, I have an Action, JoinGame, that requires the current userid. I get this with <code>WebSecurity.CurrentUserId</code> inside the controller.</p> <p>When I run the unit test for JoinGame, UserId is not being populated. Obviously during a unit test there is no 'current' user. I'm trying to figure out how to mock one.</p> <p>The first error I got was was <code>System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name; httpContext</code></p> <ul> <li><p>After much searching, I found <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11245059/how-to-mock-httpcontext-so-that-it-is-not-null-from-a-unit-test">How to mock httpcontext so that it is not null from a unit test?</a>.</p> <p>I followed the guidance in that link (created a HttpContextFactory, which mocked httpcontext and also set the current controller context to the mocked data). <strong>This didn't have any effect.</strong></p></li> </ul> <p>I then found this <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15946579/mocking-websecurity-provide">Mocking WebSecurity provider</a></p> <p>I created a wrapper interface &amp; class for websecurity, and mocked the wrapper &amp; injected the websecuritywrapper into the gamecontroller. This solved the httpContext (though I presently don't really understand why this worked and the HttpContextFactory didn't), however the CurrentUserId returned by the websecuritywrapper is always 0. Even if I hardcode it to 1 insider the websecuritywrapper class (<code>public int CurrentUserId{ get { return 1; }}</code></p> <p>Obviously I'm doing something wrong, just not sure what. I've posted code for the unit test, the controller and the wrapper below.</p> <pre><code>public RedirectToRouteResult JoinGame(int gameid) { //_wr is the websecuritywrapper int UserID = _wr.CurrentUserId; //WebSecurity.CurrentUserId; // get userteam for this user and this game UserTeam ut = _UserTeamRepository.GetUserTeam(userteamid:0, gameid: gameid, userid: UserID); int intUTID = 0; if (ut == null) { // no userteam found, create it OperationStatus opStatus = _UserTeamRepository.CreateUserTeam(UserID, gameid); if (opStatus.Status) intUTID = (int)opStatus.OperationID; } else {intUTID = ut.Id; } if (intUTID &gt; 0) { return RedirectToAction("Index", "ViewPlayers", new { id = intUTID }); } else { return RedirectToAction("Index", "Game");

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
