foolproof

MVC Foolproof Validation aims to extend the Data Annotation validation provided in ASP.NET MVC.

The original repository is a clone of the MVC Foolproof Validation library from https://foolproof.codeplex.com/ with bug fixes.

This fork targets the issue that Foolproof doesn't not work with Validator.TryValidateObject(...). It doesn't validate the model, it just returns ture. This caused problems when a validation was triggerd from the server side (e.g. validation of a file based import).

Example:

private class Model
{
	public string Value1 { get; set; }

	[NotEqualTo("Value1")]
	public string Value2 { get; set; }
}

[TestMethod()]
public void IsValid()
{
	var model = new Model() { Value1 = "hello", Value2 = "goodbye" };

	var ctx = new ValidationContext(model, null, null);
	var results = new List<ValidationResult>();

	bool actual = Validator.TryValidateObject(model, ctx, results, true);
	var expected = true;
	Assert.AreEqual(actual, expected);
}

All Unit Tests have been rewritten to test this behaviour.

QUnit test are updated to a new MVC 5 project (2 missing (compilation error), 2 changed (test results where mixed)))
