What is "IIS Express Bootstrapper"?

IIS Express Bootstrapper is a very simple library built to make easy run IIS Express from your C# code for a web application project.

It's a great library for acceptance tests.

How do I install it?

You can install this package via NuGet Package Manager, Package Manager Console, or dotnet.

Install-Package IISExpressBootstrapper
# or
dotnet add package IISExpressBootstrapper

Basic sample

namespace IISExpressSample
{
    [TestFixture]
    public class YourTestClass
    {
        [Test]
        public void YourTestMethod()
        {
            // You must replace "IISExpressBootstrapper.SampleWebApp" parameters for your web Application Name
            var host = new IISExpressHost("IISExpressBootstrapper.SampleWebApp", 8088);

            // Your amazing test code goes here

            host.Dispose();
        }
    }
}

Yes, simple as that. With this library you can easily setup IIS Express and write your acceptance tests for your web application using Selenium Webdriver, WatyN or whatever you want.

Note: In order to work, the web application and the acceptance test project must be in the same solution folder. You can see a full sample here.
