Testing

Controllers

Note:

Every Controller Route should at least one corresponding integration tests.

Naming:

The name of the file should be exactly the same name as the Controller, but has Test appended on the end.

For Example:

Controller = WishListController.php

Test File = WishListControllerTest.php

Location:

tests/Controllers/..

Info

Dot Notes should contain the routes.

Naming = Snake Case For Readability

Example

/**
 @test
 * PUT 'api/inmates/{inmate}'
 */
public function a_admin_employee_can_mark_an_inmate_disabled()
{
    $user = factory(Employee::class)->create(['is_admin' => true]);
    $inmate = factory(Inmate::class)->create();

    $faker = Factory::create();
    $identity_field = $faker->catchPhrase;
    $response = $this->actingAs($user, 'api')
                    ->json('PUT', '/api/inmates/' . $inmate->token, [
                        'disabled' => true,
                    ])
                    ->assertJson(['success' => true]);
    $response = json_decode($response->getContent());

    $this->assertNotEquals($inmate->disabled, $response->data->disabled);
    $this->assertEquals($inmate->fresh()->disabled, $response->data->disabled);
}
