VcrStripeWebhook

Record and replay Stripe webhooks during integration test.

Requirements

• vcr gem
• Stripe CLI

Installation

Add this gem to Gemfile.

gem 'vcr_stripe_webhook', github: 'shunichi/vcr_stripe_webhook'

Usage

# Set Stripe API key for test mode
Stripe.api_key = 'sk_test_...'

Use VcrStripeWebhook.use_cassette instead of VCR.use_cassette.

# This method wraps VCR.use_cassette
VcrStripeWebhook.use_cassette('create_customer') do |vcr_cassette|
  stripe_customer = nil

  # Get webhook payload from Stripe server or current cassette
  webhook_event = VcrStripeWebhook.receive_webhook_event('customer.created') do
    customer_params = {
      email: 'test-user@example.com',
      name: 'test-user',
    }
    stripe_customer = Stripe::Customer.create(customer_params)
  end

  # Call your webhook manually
  post your_stripe_webhook_path, params: webhook_event.as_json,
    headers: { 'Content-Type: application/json' }

  # Insert assertion here
ensure
  stripe_customer&.delete
end

On the first run, this code records HTTP requests/responses with VCR gem and additionally records received webhooks with vcr_stripe_webhook gem. On the second run or later, it replays the recorded requests, responses and webhooks.
