Have you ever seen someone try to implement the MVP pattern with ASP.NET Web Forms?

And if so, how did they do it?


I'm working with a code base that is more than 10 years old.
Before I arrived, somebody tried to implement the MVP pattern with ASP.NET Web Forms.

I'm just wondering if this is unique to my code base or if other people have seen the same thing.

You might want to look at ASP.NET WebForms MVP.

The ASP.NET Web Forms MVP project is about bringing the love back to Web Forms through a renewed approach to using it - an approach that facilitates separation of concerns and testability whilst maintaining the rapid development that Web Forms was built to deliver.

No, it just came to my attention recently. Personally, I am focusing on ASP.NET MVC, and have no legacy Web Forms apps to maintain. In your case, this might be a good compromise if completely converting your existing WebForms application to MVC ends up being too much of a hassle.
