Excercising claim based logic using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Testing is now as simple as:

```
    [Fact]
    public async Task RoleCustomizationWorksTest()
    {
        this._factory.RoleConfig.Roles = new[] {"Reader"};

var client = _factory.CreateClient();

var response = await client.GetAsync("api/Values/RequireRoleReader");

response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
    }

[Fact]
    public async Task NoAuthorizationHeaderReturnsUnauthorizedTest()
    {
        this._factory.RoleConfig.AnonymousRequest = true;

var client = _factory.CreateClient();

var response = await client.GetAsync("api/Values/AllowAuthorized");

Assert.Equal(HttpStatusCode.Unauthorized, response.StatusCode);
    }

private readonly CustomRoleWebApplicationFactory<Startup> _factory;

public UnitTests(CustomRoleWebApplicationFactory<Startup> factory)
    {
        this._factory = factory;
        this._factory.RoleConfig.Reset();
    }
```

For more examples see the unit tests [here](https://github.com/jabbera/aspnetcore-testing-role-handler/blob/master/AspNetCore.Testing.Authentication.ClaimInjector.Test/UnitTests.cs).

After learning about this great new library [Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Testing](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/test/integration-tests?view=aspnetcore-2.2) I was excited to try it. Then I found out it has little to little to no built in support for testing controllers with Role based Authorization.

But there are workarounds (they all stink):

* make controllers anonymous for integration testing
* using integrated windows auth
* host a separate identity server

None of these are both simple and allow for exercising the role based logic without a ton of complexity. This solution solves that.
