Testing in Umami codebase - Part 1.4

#umami #opensource #testing #architecture

Inspired by BulletProof React, I applied its codebase architecture concepts to the Umami codebase.

This article focuses only on the testing strategies used in Umami codebase.

Prerequisites

Testing in Umami codebase — Part 1.0
Testing in Umami codebase — Part 1.1
Testing in Umami codebase — Part 1.2
Testing in Umami codebase — Part 1.3

In part 1.1, we reviewed the website.cy.ts. It has the test cases for adding, editing and deleting a website. In this part 1.2, we reviewed the login.cy.ts test cases. In this part 1.3, we reviewed the api-website.cy.ts. In this part 1.4, we review the api-user.cy.ts.

I found the following test cases defined in api-user.cy.ts

Creates a user
Returns all users. Admin access is required.
Updates a user.
Gets a user by ID.
Deletes a user.

In the Part 1.3, we looked at what a fixture is. let’s choose one test case, #2 and review it.

Returns all users. Admin access is required.

You will find the following code at L30 in api-user.cy.ts:

it('Returns all users. Admin access is required.', () => {
  cy.request({
    method: 'GET',
    url: '/api/admin/users',
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      Authorization: Cypress.env('authorization'),
    },
  }).then(response => {
    expect(response.status).to.eq(200);
    expect(response.body.data[0]).to.have.property('id');
    expect(response.body.data[0]).to.have.property('username');
    expect(response.body.data[0]).to.have.property('password');
    expect(response.body.data[0]).to.have.property('role');
  });
});

This is just a cy.request and validations are made using expect
