Test API REST SCALA
scala, testing
Solution
With the help of @jmccure and also another question on SO and this blog I find the way to do it.
For example, this is how my first test looks like:
test("Create User") {
Post("/users", user) ~> userRoutes ~> check {
assert(
status == OK
&& responseAs[User] == user
)
}
}
Where `user` is a case class that can be marshalled.
Problem
I am developing an application with Scala, Akka and Spray and I want to test the services of the API. I do not understand how`spray-testkit` helps us in testing. I also tried `Specs2` and `ScalaTest` but neither of them are made to test APIs. I just want a library that allow me to test API paths, adding headers, jsons to body and assert HTTP status and so son. What do you suggest me? [EDIT] I also tried Frisby.js and it is more simple. Maybe it is a better choice. [EDIT -2] I found Gatling. Does anyone know it?? Thanks!
