title: Is it possible to unit test ValidationFeature plugin in ServiceStack
body: <p>I would like to unit test my <code>ValidationFeature</code> rulesets in my ServiceStack project however the plugin is not being initialized when creating my <code>appHost</code> object.</p>
  
  <p>Here is my original code to initialize the <code>appHost</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>    [TestFixtureSetUp]
      private void TestFixtureSetUp()
      {
          appHost = new BasicAppHost().Init();
          appHost.Plugins.Add(new ValidationFeature());
          var container = appHost.Container;
          container.RegisterValidators(typeof(ApplicationValidator).Assembly);
          container.RegisterAutoWiredAs&lt;FakeRetailReferralRepository, IRetailReferralRepository&gt;();
          container.RegisterAutoWired&lt;SubmitApplicationService&gt;();            
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried moving the <code>Plugins.Add</code> line in between the <code>BasicAppHost</code> constructor and <code>Init()</code> and that didn't work either.  Is what I'm trying to do possible?</p>
