mbtest 1.0.1

Python wrapper & utils for the Mountebank over the wire test double tool.

mbtest

Python wrapper & utils for the Mountebank over the wire test double tool.

Includes pytest fixture and PyHamcrest matchers.

Setup

Install with pip:

pip install mbtest

(As usual, use of a venv or virtualenv is recommended.) Also requires Mountebank to have been installed:

npm install mountebank@1.14.1 --production

Basic example

import pytest
import requests
from hamcrest import assert_that, is_
from brunns.matchers.response import response_with
from mbtest.matchers import had_request
from mbtest.imposters import Imposter, Predicate, Response, Stub

@pytest.mark.usefixtures("mock_server")
def test_request_to_mock_server(mock_server):
    # Set up mock server with required behavior
    imposter = Imposter(Stub(Predicate(path="/test"), 
                             Response(body="sausages")), 
                        record_requests=True)

    with mock_server(imposter) as server:
        # Make request to mock server
        response = requests.get("{}/test".format(imposter.url))

        assert_that("We got the expected response", 
                    response, is_(response_with(status_code=200, body="sausages")))
        assert_that("The mock server recorded the request", 
                    server, had_request(path="/test", method="GET"))

Needs a pytest fixture, most easily defined in conftest.py:

import pytest
from mbtest import server

@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def mock_server(request):
    return server.mock_server(request)

Examples of more complex predicates can be found in the integration tests.
