In memory Integration test for IdSrv3 and API hostet in a single project, using OwinHttpMessageHandler

[dprochownik]

Are there any chances that BackchannelHttpHandler in IdentityServerBearerTokenAuthenticationOptions will be an expression instead of object instance or there will be some other possibility for lazy set of back channel?

I mean by this something like BackchannelHttpHandler = () => myCustomInMemoryOwinHttpMessageHandler

When IdSrv3 and API which uses app.UseIdentityServerBearerTokenAuthentication(authOptions) are hosted in a single OWIN project, and both are set up in a single application startup, there is no possibility to set BackchannelHttpHandler for in-memory integration testing because OwinHttpMessageHandler could be created only after app.Build().

Sample of using OwinHttpMessageHandler can be found here: http://dhickey.ie/2015/04/testing-owin-applications-with-httpclient-and-owinhttpmessagehandler/

Would it be possible use a simple handler which accepts a delegate?

public class Handler : System.Net.Http.HttpMessageHandler
{
    private readonly Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> SendCoreAsync;

    public Handler(Func<HttpRequestMessage, CancellationToken, Task<HttpResponseMessage>> sender)
    {
        SendCoreAsync = sender;
    }

    protected override Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        return SendCoreAsync(request, cancellationToken);
    }
}

Why not host them in 2 different pipelines?
