ActiveResource::HttpMock::Flow

Adds dynamic mocks to ActiveResource::HttpMock.

The default implementation of ActiveResource::HttpMock is not able to test code that has this kind of work flow:

class Charge < ActiveResource::Base; end

def charge_customer
  count = Charge.all.count

  Charge.create(amount: 10.00)

  fail 'could not charge customer' unless Charge.all.count == count + 1
end

ActiveResource::HttpMock::Flow can test the above like so:

def setup
  @charges = []

  ActiveResource::HttpMock.respond_to do |mock|
    mock.get '/charges.json' do |request, response|
      response.body = {charges: @charges}.to_json
    end

    mock.post '/charges.json' do |request, response|
      @charges << [{id: @charges.length + 1}]
    end
  end
end

def test_customers_are_charged
  assert_equal 0, Charge.all.count

  charge_customer

  assert_equal 1, Charge.all.count
end

It also allows you to check if a request was actually made, and to inspect it:

def setup
  ActiveResource::HttpMock.respond_to do |mock|
    mock.post '/charges.json' do |request, _|
      @request = request
    end
  end
end

def test_customers_are_charged
  charge_customer

  refute_nil @request

  json = ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(@request.body)
  charge = json['charge']

  assert_equal 10.00, charge['amount']
end

Installation

Update your Gemfile to the following:

group :test do
  gem 'activeresource-httpmock-flow'
end

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

Require the library in your test helper:

require 'activeresource/http_mock/flow'

And use ActiveResource::HttpMock as you would normally. It is compatible with the default implementation as well.
