Story: I want to write a unit test to ensure that the Authorize attribute is applied to a controller ActionResult or ViewResult so that security is tested.
Here is the test:

    MethodInfo varietalMethod = typeof(AdminController).GetMethod(&#34;PreviousSiteUserConversion&#34;, new Type[] { });

I’ve used CrystalTech for years. They seemed to be falling behind a bit when I started to work with the MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern. That works MUCH better with IIS 7 than with IIS 6, but CrystalTech only had IIS 6 servers.
That’s all changed!
