Rspec:everyday-rspec the real exercise. 7th. Using the request test-Test API

Test Your app's interactions with non-human users, covering external API

7.1request Test vs feature Test

the RSpec , this is specifically aimed at API test is best placed in the spec/requests in the catalog, separate from the functional tests written earlier.

This test is also not used Capy-bara , because it simulates browser interaction, not program interaction.

We're going to use a response from the previous test controller. HTTP verb: Get , Post , Delete and the Patch .

End-Point: Endpoint.

7.2 Test GET request

The point of the request test and the controller test is that it is not limited to the specific controller, any route that you can use for your app

Bin/rails g Rspec:request Projects_api

Create Spec/requests/projects_apis_spec.rb

It "loads a project" douser = Factorygirl.create (: User)factorygirl.create (:p roject, Name: "Sample project")factorygirl.create (:p roject, Name: "Second Sample Project", Owner:user)#发送HTTP GET request,in order to verify the identity,APIrequires a user's e-mail address and authentication token, so we put it in the parameterget Api_projects_path, params:{User_email:user.email,User_token:user.authentication_token      }expect (response). To Have_http_status (: Success)

#调试: See what Response.body is. An array that contains information about the projects of the logged-on user.

[{"id": 2, "name": "Second Sample Project", "description": "A Test Project.", "due_on": "2018-05-26", "Created_at": " 2018-05-19t07:30:14.169z "," Updated_at ":" 2018-05-19t07:30:14.169z "," user_id ": 1}]

#调试: Convert to JSON: change to =

[{"id" =>2, "name" = "Second Sample project", "description" and "A test project.", "due_on" and "2018-05-26", " Created_at "=" 2018-05-19t07:30:14.169z "," Updated_at "and" 2018-05-19t07:30:14.169z "," user_id "=>1}]
