HotChocolate GraphQL–Integration tests

The original way I wrote integration tests for my GraphQL endpoints was inspired by this blog post: https://chillicream.com/blog/2019/04/11/integration-tests

As explained in this post you can create a schema instance and directly invoke it:

However this approach no longer worked after upgrading to HotChocolate 12.  It started to fail with the following error message:

Autofac.Core.Registration.ComponentNotRegisteredException : The requested service 'HotChocolate.ISchema' has not been registered. To avoid this exception, either register a component to provide the service, check for service registration using IsRegistered(), or use the ResolveOptional() method to resolve an optional dependency.

I tried multiple approaches to get rid of this error but after a few attempts I rewrote the tests to use the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Testing package.

I copied a few Helper classes that I found in the HotChocolate repo to make this easier in combination with GraphQL.

Now I could write the same test like this:

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
