Savon v1 Rspec Helpers
Starting in Savon v2, spec helpers are included in Savon itself. This gem is only helpful if you're using Savon v1. It is highly recommended to use Savon v2 with the Savon::SpecHelper module for new projects.
Savon::Spec is available through Rubygems and can be installed via:
$ gem install savon_spec
Include the Savon::Spec::Macros module into your specs:
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include Savon::Spec::Macros
endBy including the module you get a savon method to mock SOAP requests. Here's a very simple example:
let(:client) do
Savon::Client.new do
wsdl.endpoint = "http://example.com"
wsdl.namespace = "http://users.example.com"
end
end
before do
savon.expects(:get_user)
end
it "mocks a SOAP request" do
client.request(:get_user)
endThis sets up an expectation for Savon to call the :get_user action and the specs should pass without errors.
Savon::Spec does not execute a POST request to your service, but uses Savon hooks to return a fake response:
{ :code => 200, :headers => {}, :body => "" }To further isolate your specs, I'd suggest setting up FakeWeb to disallow any HTTP requests.
Mocking SOAP requests is fine, but what you really need to do is verify whether you're sending the right parameters to your service.
before do
savon.expects(:get_user).with(:id => 1)
end
it "mocks a SOAP request" do
client.request(:get_user) do
soap.body = { :id => 1 }
end
endThis checks whether Savon uses the SOAP body Hash you expected and raises a Savon::Spec::ExpectationError if it doesn't.
Failure/Error: client.request :get_user, :body => { :name => "Dr. Who" }
Savon::Spec::ExpectationError:
expected { :id => 1 } to be sent, got: { :name => "Dr. Who" }
You can also pass a block to the #with method and receive the Savon::SOAP::Request before the POST request is executed.
Here's an example of a custom expectation:
savon.expects(:get_user).with do |request|
request.soap.body.should include(:id)
endInstead of the default fake response, you can return a custom HTTP response by passing a Hash to the #returns method.
If you leave out any of these values, Savon::Spec will add the default values for you.
savon.expects(:get_user).returns(:code => 500, :headers => {}, :body => "save the unicorns")Savon::Spec also works with SOAP response fixtures (simple XML files) and a conventional folder structure:
~ spec
~ fixtures
~ get_user
- single_user.xml
- multiple_users.xml
+ models
+ controllers
+ helpers
+ views
When used inside a Rails 3 application, Savon::Spec uses Rails.root.join("spec", "fixtures") to locate your fixture directory.
In any other case, you have to manually set the fixture path via:
Savon::Spec::Fixture.path = File.expand_path("../fixtures", __FILE__)Directory names inside the fixtures directory map to SOAP actions and contain actual SOAP responses from your service(s).
You can use one of those fixtures for the HTTP response body like in the following example:
savon.expects(:get_user).with(:id => 1).returns(:single_user)As you can see, Savon::Spec uses the name of your SOAP action and the Symbol passed to the #returns method to navigate inside
your fixtures directory and load the requested XML files.
Savon::Spec can also verify that a certain SOAP request was not executed:
savon.expects(:get_user).neverThis library is optimized to work with RSpec, but it could be tweaked to work with any other testing library.
Savon::Spec installs an after filter to clear out its Savon hooks after each example.
