Wax::Spec

Adds spec helpers for apps using the wax shard. This was pulled out to a separate shard so that apps wouldn't have spec-only dependencies in their production apps.

Installation

1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

   development_dependencies:
     wax-spec:
       github: jgaskins/wax-spec
   

2. Run shards install

Usage

In your application's spec helpers, load the appropriate helpers provided by wax-spec. For example, in your applications' spec/routes/route_helper.cr, you would do this:

require "../spec_helper" # your app-wide baseline spec helper file
require "wax-spec/route_helper"

Then in your specs you can do this:

describe RouteUnderTest do
  app = app(RouteUnderTest.new)

  context "GET /" do
    it "returns 200 OK" do
      response = app.get "/"

      response.should have_status :ok
      response.should have_html "Hello"
    end
  end

  context "POST /" do
    it "returns 201 CREATED with the correct params" do
      response = app.post "/", form: {
        # other params ...
        _authenticity_token: app.authenticity_token,
      }

      response.should have_status :created
    end

    it "returns 400 BAD REQUEST without the authenticity token" do
      response = app.post "/", form: {
        # non-authenticity-token params
      }

      response.should have_status :bad_request
    end
  end
end
