nock and cucumber

Hey there, how are you?

The real coder doesn't test. Only the ones who fear are testing. But not him.

(from here)

nock

nock is an HTTP mocking and expectations library for Node.js

Examples

var nock = require('nock');
 
var couchdb = nock('https://kikoo.js')
  .get('/users/1')
  .reply(200, {
    _id: '123ABC',
    _rev: '946B7D1C',
    username: 'toto',
    email: 'toto2015@kikoo.js'
  });
var scope = nock('https://kikoo.js')
  .post('/users', {
    username: 'toto',
    email: 'toto2015@kikoo.js'
  })
  .reply(201, {
    ok: true,
    id: '123ABC',
    rev: '946B7D1C'
  });

How to cucumber?

  • Describe behaviour in plain text
  • Write a step definition in Ruby
  • Run and watch it fail
  • Write code to make the step pass
  • Run again and see the step pass
  • Repeat 2-5 until green like a cuke

10:       And some other action
11:       And yet another action
12:      Then some testable outcome is achieved
13:       And something else we can check happens too
