When you submit a form with a checkbox, the value is only posted if the checkbox is checked. So, if you leave the checkbox unchecked then nothing will be sent to the server when in many situations you would want false to be sent instead. As the hidden input has the same name as the checkbox, then if the checkbox is unchecked you'll still get a 'false' sent to the server.

When the checkbox is checked, the ModelBinder will automatically take care of extracting the 'true' from the 'true,false'

@Html.CheckBox("IncludeClosed", false, new { onChange = "this.IncludeClosed.submit()"})

@using (Html.BeginForm("Index","Chargeback",FormMethod.Get,new { id = "IncludeClosed"}))

@Html.CheckBox("IncludeClosed", false, new { onChange = "document.getElementById('IncludeClosed').submit()"})

@using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Chargeback"))
{
    @Html.CheckBox("IncludeClosed", false, new { onChange = "this.form.submit()" })

And then bring the entire code base in that new project? Doesn't seem legit, but you can easily add a new project in the solution, and connect that (new testing) project with your existing web application as a reference (MVC would be a dll). Then using the content from your MVC, you can run tests on them.

But you are not going to be using a new project, right? I might have misunderstood, but I thought your boss wanted you to integrate this in an existing project.

1. Enable FRT:
   
   1. Open IIS Manager and select your site;
   2. On the right-hand side, click on "Failed request tracing..." under "Configure";
   3. Tick the "Enabled" box;
   4. Click "OK";
2. Configure a tracing rule for 404 errors:
   
   1. In the main pane, double-click "Failed request tracing rules";
   2. On the RHS, click "Add...", and set up the rule:
      
      • All content - Next
      • Status codes: 404 - Next
      • Leave all providers ticked - Finish
3. Generate an error and view the log file:
   
   1. Open the URL which isn't working in a browser;
   2. Open the %systemdrive%\inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles\... folder in Windows Explorer;
   3. Open the XML file in Internet Explorer;
