Example uses with testing frameworks

AVA

import * as test from 'ava'
import m from '.'
import { freddo, expr, exists } from 'freddo'
import micro from 'micro'
import testListen from 'test-listen'
import validator from 'validator'

let url
test.before(async () => {
  url = await testListen(micro(m))
})

test('/ip/json', async t => {
  t.is(await freddo(url)
    .status(200)
    .header('content-type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8')
    .body(validator.isJSON)
    .body(exists, expr('.ip')), true)
})

Mocha

import { freddo, expr, exists } from 'freddo'
import validator from 'validator'
import assert from 'assert'

describe('/ip/json', function() {
  it('should serve a JSON response', async function() {
    assert.strict.ok(await freddo("https://locate.now.sh/ip/json/")
      .status(200)
      .header('content-type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8')
      .body(validator.isJSON)
      .body(exists, expr('.ip')))
  })
})

API

freddo(url[, options])

Returns a Promise for a modified got request object.

url

Type: string | object

The URL to request, as a string, a https.request options object, or a WHATWG URL. (Adapted from got's documentation)

options

Type: object

Any of the https.request options. (Adapted from got's documentation)

freddo.status(expected)

Compares equality of status-code with expected, and returns a boolean.

expected

Type: number | function

freddo.header(entity, expected)

Compares equality of entity header with expected, and returns a boolean.

entity

Type: string

e.g. content-type, content-length, origin, etc.

expected

Type: string | number | function

freddo.body(expected[, expression])

Compares equality of body with expected, and returns a boolean.

expected

Type: string | function

expression

Type: Expression object

Note: When an expression is given, an array containing the matched values is returned. Therefore, in this case, an expected parameter function should treat its argument as an array and destructure it accordingly (e.g. ([x]) => x == 'bar').

freddo.redirectsTo(url)

Checks whether status code contains a redirection code (i.e. 301, 302, 303, 307, or 308) and whether there exists a location header entity containing url.

url

Type: string

freddo.expect(key, expected)

Compares equality of response.key (where response is got's response object) with expected, and returns a boolean.

Note: freddo.ensure('body', expected) is the same as freddo.body(expected) (and the same applies for freddo.status).

key

Type: string

Any of got's response object keys.

expected

Type: string | function

freddo.ensure()

Asserts the boolean response of the preceding functions.

expr(pattern)

Returns an Expression object that can be passed as an expression parameter to the freddo.body function (see above) so as to find a value matching the pattern.

pattern

Type: JSPath path expression

exists()

Returns a function that can be passed as an expected parameter to the freddo.body function to check whether a pattern match is found.
