Description

Related: #8294

This is another area we are lacking as we do not have any MFC ActiveX test coverage. Any help here is appreciated!

As a first step an MFC ActiveX control will need to be created, registered, and follow a pattern similar to #8253 to get it into the winforms solution. The gaps for test coverage can then be expanded from there :)
