TestSecureApiSample
A sample showing how to test a secure API endpoint using xunit, identityserver4, and environment variables.
Goals
- Demonstrate how to test a token-secured API endpoint running live (perhaps in a container) using xUnit
- Demonstrate how to dynamically specify the API endpoint's URL using environment variables read by xUnit
Original Sample
Original IdentityServerHost project forked from here: https://github.com/brockallen/IdentityServerAndApi and only modified slightly.

C:\dev\Scratch\IdentityServerAndApi\SecureAPITests>Notes
The app should be running on port 3611 using the checked-in launchSettings.json file. If not, you should adjust it to do so.
If ctrl-F5 in Visual Studio to run the API (IdentityServerHost project) and then when you run the tests it just dies with an "exited with -1" try running both the web server and the tests from two separate command lines, instead.
