Sorry for cross posting; this was posted September 2nd here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39300797/core-web-api-from-sql-server-tables-can-asp-net-core-identity-reveal-whether [no answers yet].
Goal:
By inspecting ASP.NET Core 1.0 Identity tables,
determine whether a given user is logged on.
A test application can be created from the reference at the bottom of this question.
Before testing, a single user is created.
Before and after running the test, the 7 ASP.NET Core Identity tables are inspected; all except AspNetUsers have zero rows; AspNetUsers has one row.
Purpose(s):
unit testing; reporting
Test idea (pseudo-code):
// Arrange
prepare to logon a known test user
// Act
POST // POST: /Account/Login
[HttpPost]
[AllowAnonymous]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<IActionResult>
Login(LoginViewModel model, string returnUrl = null)
// Assert
??????? how to explicitly verify that our known user is logged on ???????The Problem
The contents of the AspNetUsers row for our known user BEFORE and AFTER is identical.
