Rack::Test <img src=“https://codeclimate.com/badge.png” />
Description
Rack::Test is a small, simple testing API for Rack apps. It can be used on its own or as a reusable starting point for Web frameworks and testing libraries to build on. Most of its initial functionality is an extraction of Merb 1.0’s request helpers feature.
Features
-
Maintains a cookie jar across requests
-
Easily follow redirects when desired
-
Set request headers to be used by all subsequent requests
-
Small footprint. Approximately 200 LOC
Example
require "rack/test"
class HomepageTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
include Rack::Test::Methods
def app
MyApp.new
end
def test_redirect_logged_in_users_to_dashboard
"bryan", "secret"
get "/"
follow_redirect!
assert_equal "http://example.org/redirected", last_request.url
assert last_response.ok?
end
end
