No fuzz ExUnit test server to mock third party services.

Features:

  • HTTP/1
  • HTTP/2
  • WebSocket
  • Built-in TLS with self-signed certificates
  • Plug route matching

Installation

Add test_server to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:test_server, "~> 0.1", only: [:test]}
  ]
end

Usage 

test "fetch_url/0" do
  # The test server will autostart the current test server, if not already running
  TestServer.add("/", via: :get)

  # The URL is derived from the current test server instance
  Application.put_env(:my_app, :fetch_url, TestServer.url())

  {:ok, "HTTP"} = MyModule.fetch_url()
end

The TestServer.add/2 function can route a request to an anonymous function:

TestServer.add("/", to: fn conn ->
  Plug.Conn.send_resp(conn, 200, "success")
end)

It can also route to a plug:

TestServer.add("/", to: MyPlug)

The method to listen to can be defined with :via, by default it'll match any method:

TestServer.add("/", via: :post)

A custom match function can be set with :match option:

TestServer.add("/", match: fn
  %{params: %{"a" => 1}} = _conn -> true
  _conn -> false
end)

When a route is matched it'll be removed from active routes list. The route will be triggered in the order they were added:

TestServer.add("/", via: :get, to: &Plug.Conn.send_resp(&1, 200, "first"))
TestServer.add("/", via: :get, to: &Plug.Conn.send_resp(&1, 200, "second"))

{:ok, "first"} = fetch_request()
{:ok, "second"} = fetch_request()

Plugs can be added to process requests before it matches any routes. If no plugs are defined Plug.Conn.fetch_query_params/1 will be used.

TestServer.plug(fn conn ->
  Plug.Conn.fetch_query_params(conn)
end)

TestServer.plug(fn conn ->
  {:ok, body, _conn} = Plug.Conn.read_body(conn, [])

  %{conn | body_params: Jason.decode!(body)}
end)

TestServer.plug(MyPlug)

HTTPS

By default all routes are served as plain HTTP. HTTPS can be enabled with the :scheme option when starting the test server.

Custom SSL certificates can also be used by defining the cowboy options:

TestServer.start(scheme: :https, tls: [keyfile: key, certfile: cert])

A certificate suite will automatically generated if you don't include certificate:

{:ok, instance} = TestServer.start(scheme: :https)
cacerts = TestServer.x509_suite().cacerts

WebSocket

WebSocket endpoint can also be set up. By default the handler will echo what was received.

test "WebSocketClient" do
  {:ok, socket} = TestServer.websocket_init("/ws")

  :ok = TestServer.websocket_handle(socket)
  :ok = TestServer.websocket_handle(socket, to: fn {:text, "ping"}, state -> {:reply, {:text, "pong"}, state} end)
  :ok = TestServer.websocket_handle(socket, match: fn {:text, message}, _state -> message == "hi")

  {:ok, client} = WebSocketClient.start_link(TestServer.url("/ws"))

  :ok = WebSocketClient.send(client, "hello")
  {:ok, "hello"} = WebSocketClient.receive(client)

  :ok = WebSocketClient.send(client, "ping")
  {:ok, "pong"} = WebSocketClient.receive(client)

  :ok = WebSocketClient.send("hi")
  {:ok, "hi"} = WebSocketClient.receive(client)

  :ok = TestServer.websocket_info(socket, fn state -> {:reply, {:text, "ping"}, state} end)
  {:ok, "ping"} = WebSocketClient.receive(client)
end

Note: WebSocket is not supported by the :httpd adapter.

HTTP Server Adapter

TestServer supports Bandit, Plug.Cowboy, and :httpd out of the box. The HTTP adapter will be selected in this order depending which is available in the dependencies. You can also explicitly set the http server in the configuration:

TestServer.start(http_server: {Bandit, []})

You can create your own plug based HTTP Server Adapter by using the TestServer.HTTPServer behaviour.

IPv6

Use the :ipfamily option to test with IPv6 when you are starting the test server:

TestServer.start(ipfamily: :inet6)
