Basic Integration Testing

Create a new file api.js:

  • By using express, create an instance of express called app
  • Listen to port 7865 and log API available on localhost port 7865 to the browser console when the express server is started
  • For the route GET /, return the message Welcome to the payment system

Create a new file api.test.js:

  • Create one suite for the index page: * Correct status code? * Correct result? * Other?

Server

Terminal 1:

bob@dylan:~/8-api$  node api.js
API available on localhost port 7865

Terminal 2:

bob@dylan:~/8-api$  curl http://localhost:7865 ; echo ""
Welcome to the payment system
bob@dylan:~/8-api$
bob@dylan:~/8-api$ npm test api.test.js

> [email protected] test /root/8-api
> ./node_modules/mocha/bin/mocha "api.test.js"



  Index page

  23 passing (256ms)

Tips:

  • Since this is an integration test, you will need to have your node server running for the test to pass
  • You can use the module request

Requirements:

  • You should be able to run the test suite using npm test api.test.js
  • Every test should pass without any warnings
