Question

我正在尝试测试＆＃39; ApiClient.do_request＆＃39;发送正确的参数并调用＆＃39; RestClient :: Request.execute。＆＃39;但是，我的以下规格并没有按预期工作。 RSpec无法正确调用＆＃39; RestClient :: Request.execute，＆＃39;作为方法的反应＆＃39;变量保持为零，这就是为什么我在调用JSON.parse（response）时得到下面的TypeError。对我来说很奇怪的是，在Rails控制台中完成这个过程时我没有任何问题。我确定这里有一些显而易见的东西我在这里找不到......为什么会发生这种情况的想法，或者有关如何更有效地测试这个问题的建议？

型号：

class ApiClient < ActiveRecord::Base

  BASE_PATH = "http://api.bandsintown.com/artists/"
  APP_ID = ENV["APP_ID"]

  def do_request(method:, base_url:BASE_PATH, app_id:APP_ID, url:, format:"json", options: nil)
    response = RestClient::Request.execute(method: method.to_sym, 
                                           url: "#{base_url}#{url}.#{format}?api_version=2.0&app_id=#{app_id}#{options}", 
                                           timeout: 10)

    JSON.parse(response)
  end

规格：

describe ApiClient do

  describe "do_request" do

    context "when all required arguments are present" do
      it "RestClient executes the request" do
        @test_client = ApiClient.new

        expect(RestClient::Request).to receive(:execute).with(:method=>:get, :url=> "http://api.bandsintown.com/artists/Damien%20Jurado/events/search.json?api_version=2.0&app_id=ShowBoatTest&location=San+Diego,CA&radius=15", :timeout=>10)

        @test_client.do_request(method:"get", app_id:"ShowBoatTest",url:"Damien%20Jurado/events/search",options:"&location=San+Diego,CA&radius=15")
      end
    end
  end

RSpec错误：

  1) ApiClient do_request when all required arguments are present RestClient executes the request
 Failure/Error: JSON.parse(response)

 TypeError:
   no implicit conversion of nil into String

不考虑api_version=2.0&app_id=ShowBoat课程中的ApiClient等语法错误，问题似乎是由RestClient::Request.execute请求返回nil造成的。

调试或检查response的值，并确保它不是nil。

class ApiClient < ActiveRecord::Base

  BASE_PATH = "http://api.bandsintown.com/artists/"
  APP_ID = ENV["APP_ID"]

  def do_request(method:, base_url:BASE_PATH, app_id:APP_ID, url:, format:"json", options: nil)
    response = RestClient::Request.execute(method: method.to_sym, 
                                           url: "#{base_url}#{url}.#{format}?api_version=2.0&app_id=#{app_id}#{options}", 
                                           timeout: 10)
    puts response.inspect
    response ? JSON.parse(response) : []
  end

另一方面，您正在测试ApiClient类的实现。换句话说，您正在测试该类是否以特定方式在内部调用其他类。如果您决定在稍后的某个时候用HTTParty替换RestClient，那么您的测试将失败（即使它们不应该，因为您的类仍在正常工作）。

因此，测试类的实现会使您的测试“变得脆弱”。相反，给出输入并测试预期的正确输出。

describe ApiClient do
  context "with all required arguments" do
    describe "#do_request" do
      it "returns object in correct format" do
        response = subject.do_request(method:"get", app_id:"ShowBoatTest",url:"Damien%20Jurado/events/search",options:"&location=San+Diego,CA&radius=15")
        expect(response.body).to include(title: "Damien Jurado @ The Casbah in San Diego, CA")
        # etc.
      end
    end
  end
end
