Question

I want to run tests against WebAPI project using a popular in-memory hosting strategy.

My tests reside in a separate project.

Here\'s the start of my test

Answer 1

Web Api should find all your controllers that inherit from ApiController. As long as all your controllers are in the same solution it should work just fine. I have a very similar setup that runs tests using the in-memory httpserver against controllers in another project. This gives me the ability to do very fast "integration" tests in my unit test project.
