How do you dynamically populate a PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> collection?

I'm doing some unit testing and I need to create a test collection of the type PrincipalSearchResult<Principal>. This collection is normally returned when you use the method call UserPrincipal.GetAuthorizationGroups().

This type is part of the System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement namepsace which houses code for querying Microsoft's Active Directory.

If I try to simply create a new collection like such, I get an error:

PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> restResult = new PrincipalSearchResult<Principal>();

Error message: PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> does not contain a constructor that takes 0 arguments.

But I'm not getting any Intellisense when newing-up the collection that indicates what parameters to pass the constructor.

How can I create and populate this type?

Following suggestions provided in comments, I simply created a wrapper method that returned the PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> type cast to IEnumerable<Principal> for mocking.
