Embedded (ASP.NET) web server

I am looking for a light-web embeddable web server for .NET.

I need it to fake a SOAP web-service for automated testing, so it is a big plus if it supports ASP.NET web-services or another easy way to create SOAP web-services. Extra bonus points for quick startup and shutdown and multiple simultaneous instances on different ports.

A Google search turns up aspnetserve, www-Sharp.Runtime and Neokernel Web Server. Do anyone have any experience with those or other solutions?

Method 1

You can try the Cassini Web Server.


Edit
And now 6 1/2 years later, I’d recommend IIS Express instead.

Method 2

Check out the XSP web server that is bundled with mono.

Method 3

Some others I recently came across that can host ASP.NET
