Figure 17-3. IntelliSense support for strongly typed views
UNIT TEST: VIEW MODEL OBJECTS
You can access the view model object passed from the action method to the view through the
ViewResult.ViewData.Model property. Here is the test for the action method in Listing 17-17. You can see
that I have used the Assert.IsInstanceOfType method to check that the view model object is an instance of
DateTime:
...
[TestMethod]
public void ViewSelectionTest() {
// Arrange - create the controller
ExampleController target = new ExampleController();
// Act - call the action method
ViewResult result = target.Index();
// Assert - check the result
Assert.AreEqual("", result.ViewName);
Assert.IsInstanceOfType(result.ViewData.Model, typeof(System.DateTime));
}
...
I had to change the name of the view that I check for to reflect the changes in the action method since the last unit test I
showed you, as follows:
...
[TestMethod]
public void ControllerTest() {
