You can use the constructor in this way since .NET 2.0

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/c2zzwa6y(VS.80).aspx

And you can set the Current property since at least .NET 1.1

msdn.microsoft.com/.../....web.httpcontext.current(VS.71).aspx

I have actually used this method to test some of my code that relies on the HttpContext being initialized.

Can;t remember how long ago, but I have used something like this - but then stopped doing things like this as I tried to be more "pure" ... aint it amazing what weird things the framework does let you do, when it won't let you do really basic stuff due to paranoia from the FCL team
