Rspec如何创建一个方法来“干”只有一些请求的参数?

标签: ruby-on-rails ruby testing rspec rspec-rails

我想测试我的项目的create方法,但是这个create方法在我的表单中有3个步骤,我想测试所有这些。为了测试每个步骤,我需要发送一个创建请求及其各自的步骤参数。

问题是:我在每一步都重复了很多参数,我想知道如何将常用参数放在一个方法中,然后调用它。

这是我的rspec文件

require 'rails_helper'

RSpec.describe Api::MenteeApplicationsController, type: :controller do
    describe "Api Mentee Application controller tests" do
        let(:edition) { create(:edition) }

        it 'should start create a Mentee Application, step 1' do
            edition
            post :create, application: {
                first_name: "Mentee", last_name: "Rspec", email: "mentee@email.com",
                gender: "female", country: "IN", program_country: "IN",
                time_zone: "5 - Mumbai", communicating_in_english: "true",
                send_to_mentor_confirmed: "true",
                time_availability: 3,
                previous_programming_experience: "false" },
                step: "1", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
        end

        it 'should continue to create a Mentee Application, step 2' do
            post :create, application: {
                first_name: "Mentee", last_name: "Rspec", email: "mentee@email.com",
                gender: "female", country: "IN", program_country: "IN",
                time_zone: "5 - Mumbai", communicating_in_english: "true",
                send_to_mentor_confirmed: "true",
                time_availability: 3,
                motivation: "Motivation",
                background: "Background",
                team_work_experience: "Team Work Experience",
                previous_programming_experience: "false" },
                step: "2", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
        end

        it 'should not create a Mentee Application in api format' do
            applications = MenteeApplication.count
            post :create, application: {
                first_name: "Mentee", last_name: "Rspec", email: "mentee@email.com",
                gender: "female", country: "IN", program_country: "IN",
                time_zone: "5 - Mumbai", communicating_in_english: "true",
                send_to_mentor_confirmed: "true",
                motivation: "Motivation",
                background: "Background",
                team_work_experience: "Team Work Experience",
                previous_programming_experience: "false", experience: "",
                operating_system: "mac_os",
                project_proposal: "Project Proposal",
                roadmap: "Roadmap",
                time_availability: 3,
                engagements: ["master_student", "part_time", "volunteer", "one_project"] },
            step: "3", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(:unprocessable_entity)
            expect(MenteeApplication.count).to be(0)
        end

        it 'should create a Mentee Application in api format (step 3)' do
            applications = MenteeApplication.count
            post :create, application: {
                first_name: "Mentee", last_name: "Rspec", email: "mentee@email.com",
                gender: "female", country: "IN", program_country: "IN",
                time_zone: "5 - Mumbai", communicating_in_english: "true",
                send_to_mentor_confirmed: "true",
                motivation: "Motivation",
                background: "Background",
                programming_language: "ruby",
                team_work_experience: "Team Work Experience",
                previous_programming_experience: "false", experience: "",
                operating_system: "mac_os",
                project_proposal: "Project Proposal",
                roadmap: "Roadmap",
                time_availability: 3,
                engagements: ["master_student", "part_time", "volunteer", "one_project"] },
            step: "3", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
            expect(MenteeApplication.count).to be(applications+1)
            expect(flash[:notice]).to eq("Thank you for your application!")
        end

    end
end

如您所见,步骤1中的参数在步骤2和3中使用,所以我在想这样的事情:

def some_params
    params.require(:application).permit(first_name: "Mentee", last_name: "Rspec", email: "mentee@email.com",
            gender: "female", country: "IN", program_country: "IN",
            time_zone: "5 - Mumbai", communicating_in_english: "true",
            send_to_mentor_confirmed: "true",
            time_availability: 3,
            previous_programming_experience: "false")
end

但是没有用,我怎么能这样做?

let块允许您在测试用例(it s)中定义要使用的变量。需要注意的一些要点:

  • 他们被懒惰地评估:在你调用变量之前,块中的代码不会运行(除非你使用爆炸 - let! - 这会强制评估)
  • 他们可能会在内部context s
  • 中被覆盖

前往RSpec docs了解更多相关信息。

您提供的代码可以使用let s,就像这样:

require 'rails_helper'

RSpec.describe Api::MenteeApplicationsController, type: :controller do
    describe "Api Mentee Application controller tests" do
        let(:edition) { create(:edition) }
        let(:first_step_params) do
          {
            first_name: 'Mentee',
            last_name: 'Rspec',
            #...
            previous_programming_experience: false,
          }
        end
        let(:second_step_params) do
          {
            motivation: "Motivation",
            background: "Background",
            team_work_experience: "Team Work Experience",
          }.merge(first_step_params)
        end
        let(:third_step_params) do
          {
            operating_system: "mac_os",
            project_proposal: "Project Proposal",
            roadmap: "Roadmap",
            time_availability: 3,
            engagements: ["master_student", "part_time", "volunteer", "one_project"],
          }.merge(third_step_params)
        end

        it 'should start create a Mentee Application, step 1' do
            edition                                                          

            post :create, application: first_step_params, step: "1", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)                        
        end                                                                  

        it 'should continue to create a Mentee Application, step 2' do       
            post :create, application: second_step_params, step: "2", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)                        
        end

        it 'should not create a Mentee Application in api format' do
            applications = MenteeApplication.count

            post :create, application: third_step_params, step: "3", steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(:unprocessable_entity)
            expect(MenteeApplication.count).to be(0)
        end
    end
end

其他建议

1。不要实现控制器规范

控制器应该是用户界面和后台服务之间的薄软件层。他们的测试很难被认为是集成(端到端)或单元测试。

我建议你改用功能规格。 (capybara非常适合使用RSpec进行Rails测试)

blog post可能会为此提供更多见解。

2。不要在测试用例描述中使用should

请参阅betterspecs.org

3。记住

中的最后一个逗号
let(:application_params) do                                                      
  {                                                                  
    first_name: 'Mentee',                                            
    last_name: 'Rspec',                                              
    #...                          
    previous_programming_experience: false,
  }                                                                  
end

它会阻止incidental changes

4。使用.rspec文件

内容如

--require rails_helper

因此,您不需要在每个规范文件的顶部require 'rails_helper'

5。使用context s

这也是betterspecs.org的指导。你可以做点什么

RSpec.describe Api::MenteeApplicationsController, type: :controller do
    describe "Api Mentee Application controller tests" do
        let(:edition) { create(:edition) }
        let(:application_params) do
          {
            #...
          }
        end
        let(:step) { 1 }

        it 'should start create a Mentee Application' do
            edition

            post :create, application: application_params, step: step, steps: "3"

            expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
        end

        context 'in second step' do
          let(:step) { 2 }

          it 'should continue to create a Mentee Application' do
              post :create, application: application_params, step: step, steps: "3"

              expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
          end
        end
    end
end

context对于处理其他参数也可能很方便:

RSpec.describe Api::MenteeApplicationsController, type: :controller do
  describe "Api Mentee Application controller tests" do
    let(:edition) { create(:edition) }
    let(:application_params) do
      common_params.merge(additional_params)
    end
    let(:commom_params) do
      {
        #...
      }
    end
    let(:additional_params) { {} }

    it 'creates an application' do
      post :create, application: application_params
    end

    context 'with API params' do
      let(:additional_params) do
        {
          #...
        }
      end

      it 'creates an application' do
        post :create, application: application_params
      end
    end
  end
end

请注意,post方法调用在两种情况下都变得完全相同。这将允许重用它(在before块或甚至另一个let块中。

答案 1 :(得分:0)

我想我会想要做类似下面的事情。基本上:

  1. 创建一个名为@full_application的memoized变量,并将其包装在一个方法中(我已在测试的底部完成此操作)。

  2. 创建常量,规定每个测试所需的值的子集,例如STEP_ONE_PARAMSSTEP_TWO_PARAMS等。

  3. 在每个it块中,使用.slice和上面定义的常量来"抓住"您想要使用的full_application值。

  4. 这样的事情:

    require 'rails_helper'
    
    RSpec.describe Api::MenteeApplicationsController, type: :controller do
    
      STEP_ONE_PARAMS = %w(
        first_name
        last_name
        email
        gender
        country
        communicating_in_english
        send_to_mentor_confirmed
        time_availability
        previous_programming_experience
      ).freeze
    
      STEP_TWO_PARAMS = STEP_ONE_PARAMS.dup.concat(%w(
        motivation
        background
        team_work_experience
      )).freeze
    
      STEP_THREE_PARAMS = STEP_TWO_PARAMS.dup.concat(%w(
        operating_system
        project_proposal
        roadmap
        engagements
      )).freeze
    
        describe "Api Mentee Application controller tests" do
            let(:edition) { create(:edition) }
    
            it 'should start create a Mentee Application, step 1' do
                edition
                post :create, application: full_application.slice(*STEP_ONE_PARAMS),
                    step: "1", steps: "3"
    
                expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
            end
    
            it 'should continue to create a Mentee Application, step 2' do
                post :create, application: full_application.slice(*STEP_TWO_PARAMS),
                    step: "2", steps: "3"
    
                expect(response).to have_http_status(200)
            end
    
            it 'should not create a Mentee Application in api format' do
                applications = MenteeApplication.count
                post :create, application: full_application.slice(*STEP_THREE_PARAMS),
                step: "3", steps: "3"
    
                expect(response).to have_http_status(:unprocessable_entity)
                expect(MenteeApplication.count).to be(0)
            end
    
            it 'should create a Mentee Application in api format (step 3)' do
                applications = MenteeApplication.count
                post :create, application: full_application,
