Class TestUserAuthenticationExtensions

Namespace

ProtoTest.AspNetCore

Assembly

ProtoTest.AspNetCore.dll

Wires the built-in test user into an in-process application: the shipped handler reads the HeaderName header a test's [SignedInAs] identity travels in and authenticates the request as that user, so the application's own authorization - plain [Authorize], role checks, policies - sees the test user as its principal. The scheme becomes the application's default, replacing whatever the application configured: register it only where a test user should stand in for the application's own authentication, never when the test's subject is that authentication itself. The header only exists while the application runs in-process.
