@eggjs/mock

Mock library for testing Egg applications, plugins and custom Egg frameworks with ease.
egg-mock inherits all APIs from node_modules/mm, offering more flexibility.
Install
npm i egg-mock --save-dev
Usage
Create testcase
Launch a mock server with mm.app
const path = require('node:path');
const mm = require('@eggjs/mock');
describe('some test', () => {
let app;
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/foo'
});
return app.ready();
})
after(() => app.close());
it('should request /', () => {
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/')
.expect(200);
});
});
Retrieve Agent instance through app.agent after mm.app started.
Using mm.cluster launch cluster server, you can use the same API as mm.app;
Test Application
baseDir is optional that is process.cwd() by default.
before(() => {
app = mm.app();
return app.ready();
});
Test Framework
framework is optional, it's node_modules/egg by default.
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
framework: true,
});
return app.ready();
});
Test Plugin
If eggPlugin.name is defined in package.json, it's a plugin that will be loaded to plugin list automatically.
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
});
return app.ready();
});
You can also test the plugin in different framework, e.g. test aliyun-egg and framework-b in one plugin.
describe('aliyun-egg', () => {
let app;
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
framework: path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules/aliyun-egg'),
});
return app.ready();
});
});
describe('framework-b', () => {
let app;
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
framework: path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules/framework-b'),
});
return app.ready();
});
});
If it's detected as an plugin, but you don't want it to be, you can use plugin = false.
before(() => {
app = mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
plugin: false,
});
return app.ready();
});
API
mm.app(options)
Create a mock application.
mm.cluster(options)
Create a mock cluster server, but you can't use API in application, you should test using supertest.
const mm = require('@eggjs/mock');
describe('test/app.js', () => {
let app, config;
before(() => {
app = mm.cluster();
return app.ready();
});
after(() => app.close());
it('some test', () => {
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/config')
.expect(200)
});
});
You can disable coverage, because it's slow.
mm.cluster({
coverage: false,
});
mm.env(env)
Mock env when starting
mm.env('prod');
mm.app({
cache: false,
});
Environment list https://github.com/eggjs/egg-core/blob/master/lib/loader/egg_loader.js#L82
mm.consoleLevel(level)
Mock level that print to stdout/stderr
mm.consoleLevel('NONE');
level list: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, NONE
mm.home(homePath)
mock home directory
mm.restore()
restore all mock data, e.g. afterEach(mm.restore)
options
Options for mm.app and mm.cluster
baseDir {String}
The directory of application, default is process.cwd().
mm.app({
baseDir: path.join(__dirname, 'fixtures/apps/demo'),
})
You can use a string based on $CWD/test/fixtures for short
mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
})
framework {String/Boolean}
The directory of framework
mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
framework: path.join(__dirname, 'fixtures/egg'),
})
It can be true when test an framework
plugin
The directory of plugin, it's detected automatically.
mm.app({
baseDir: 'apps/demo',
})
plugins {Object}
Define a list of plugins
cache {Boolean}
Determine whether enable cache. it's cached by baseDir.
clean {Boolean}
Clean all logs directory, default is true.
If you are using ava, disable it.
app.mockLog([logger]) and app.expectLog(str[, logger]), app.notExpectLog(str[, logger])
Assert some string value in the logger instance.
It is recommended to pair app.mockLog() with app.expectLog() or app.notExpectLog().
Using app.expectLog() or app.notExpectLog() alone requires dependency on the write speed of the log. When the server disk is high IO, unstable results will occur.
it('should work', async () => {
app.mockLog();
await app.httpRequest()
.get('/')
.expect('hello world')
.expect(200);
app.expectLog('foo in logger');
app.expectLog('foo in coreLogger', 'coreLogger');
app.expectLog('foo in myCustomLogger', 'myCustomLogger');
app.notExpectLog('bar in logger');
app.notExpectLog('bar in coreLogger', 'coreLogger');
app.notExpectLog('bar in myCustomLogger', 'myCustomLogger');
});
app.httpRequest()
Request current app http server.
it('should work', () => {
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/')
.expect('hello world')
.expect(200);
});
See supertest to get more APIs.
Assert current response not contains the specified header
it('should work', () => {
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/')
.unexpectHeader('set-cookie')
.expect(200);
});
Assert current response contains the specified header
it('should work', () => {
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/')
.expectHeader('set-cookie')
.expect(200);
});
app.mockContext(options)
const ctx = app.mockContext({
user: {
name: 'Jason'
}
});
console.log(ctx.user.name);
app.mockContextScope(fn, options)
await app.mockContextScope(async ctx => {
console.log(ctx.user.name);
}, {
user: {
name: 'Jason'
}
});
app.mockCookies(data)
app.mockCookies({
foo: 'bar'
});
const ctx = app.mockContext();
console.log(ctx.getCookie('foo'));
Mock request header
app.mockSession(data)
app.mockSession({
foo: 'bar'
});
const ctx = app.mockContext();
console.log(ctx.session.foo);
app.mockService(service, methodName, fn)
it('should mock user name', async function () {
app.mockService('user', 'getName', async function (ctx, methodName, args) {
return 'popomore';
});
const ctx = app.mockContext();
await ctx.service.user.getName();
});
app.mockServiceError(service, methodName, error)
You can mock an error for service
app.mockServiceError('user', 'home', new Error('mock error'));
app.mockCsrf()
app.mockCsrf();
return app.httpRequest()
.post('/login')
.expect(302);
app.mockHttpclient(url, method, data)
Mock httpclient request, e.g.: ctx.curl
app.get('/', async function() {
const ret = await this.curl('https://eggjs.org');
this.body = ret.data.toString();
});
app.mockHttpclient('https://eggjs.org', {
data: 'mock egg',
});
return app.httpRequest()
.post('/')
.expect('mock egg');
You can also use Regular Expression for matching url.
app.mockHttpclient(/\/users\/[a-z]$/i, {
data: {
name: 'egg',
},
});
You can alse mock agent.httpclient
app.agent.mockHttpclient('https://eggjs.org', {
data: {
name: 'egg',
},
});
Bootstrap
We also provide a bootstrap file for applications' unit test to reduce duplicated code:
const { app, mock, assert } = require('@eggjs/mock/bootstrap');
describe('test app', () => {
it('should request success', () => {
mock.data(app, 'method', { foo: 'bar' });
return app.httpRequest()
.get('/foo')
.expect(res => {
assert(!res.headers.foo);
})
.expect(/bar/);
});
});
describe('test ctx', () => {
it('can use ctx', async function() {
const res = await this.ctx.service.foo();
assert(res === 'foo');
});
});
We inject ctx to every test case, so you can use app.currentContext in your test case.
and the first call of app.mockContext will reuse app.currentContext.
const { app, mock, assert } = require('@eggjs/mock/bootstrap');
describe('test ctx', () => {
it('should can use ctx', () => {
const ctx = app.currentContext;
assert(ctx);
});
it('should reuse ctx', () => {
const ctx = app.currentContext;
const mockCtx = app.mockContext();
assert(ctx === mockCtx);
const mockCtx2 = app.mockContext();
assert(ctx !== mockCtx);
});
});
And if you use mm.app to bootstrap app, you can manually call setGetAppCallback,
then egg-mock will inject ctx for each test case.
const mm = require('@eggjs/mock');
const path = require('path');
before(async function() {
const app = this.app = mm.app();
mm.setGetAppCallback(() => {
return app;
});
await app.ready();
});
it('should work', function() {
assert(this.app.currentContext);
});
