Expect(👨🏼‍💻).To(Be(🚀))

expectto/be is a Golang package that offers a substantial collection of Be matchers. Every Be matcher is compatible with both Ginkgo/Gomega and Gomock. Where possible, arguments of matchers can be either finite values or matchers (Be/Gomega/Gomock).
Employing expectto/be matchers enables you to create straightforward, readable, and maintainable unit or integration tests in Golang. Tasks such as testing HTTP requests, validating JSON responses, and more become remarkably comprehensive and straightforward.

Installation

To use Be in your Golang project, simply import it:

import "github.com/expectto/be"

Example

Consider the following example demonstrating the usage of expectto/be's HTTP request matchers:

req, err := buildRequestForServiceFoo()
Expect(err).To(Succeed())

// Matching an HTTP request
Expect(req).To(be_http.Request(
    // Matching the URL
    be_http.HavingURL(be_url.URL(
        be_url.WithHttps(),
        be_url.HavingHost("example.com"),
        be_url.HavingPath("/path"),
        be_url.HavingSearchParam("status", "active"),
        be_url.HavingSearchParam("v", be_reflected.AsNumericString()),
        be_url.HavingSearchParam("q", "Hello World"),
    )),

    // Matching the HTTP method
    be_http.POST()

    // Matching request's context
    be_http.HavingCtx(be_ctx.Ctx(
        be_ctx.WithDeadline(be_time.LaterThan(time.Now().Add(30*time.Minute))),
        be_ctx.WithValue("foobar", 100),
    )),

    // Matching the request body using JSON matchers
    be_http.HavingBody(
        be_json.Matcher(
            be_json.JsonAsReader,
            be_json.HaveKeyValue("hello", "world"),
            be_json.HaveKeyValue("n", be_reflected.AsInteger()),
            be_json.HaveKeyValue("ids", be_reflected.AsSliceOf[string]),
            be_json.HaveKeyValue("details", And(
                be_reflected.AsObjects(),
                be.HaveLength(2),
                ContainElements(
                    be_json.HaveKeyValue("key", "foo"),
                    be_json.HaveKeyValue("key", "bar"),
                ),
            )),
        ),

        // Matching HTTP headers
        be_http.HavingHeader("X-Custom", "Hey-There"),
        be_http.HavingHeader("Authorization",
            be_string.MatchTemplate("Bearer {{jwt}}",
                be_string.Var("jwt",
                    be_jwt.Token(
                        be_jwt.Valid(),
                        be_jwt.HavingClaim("name", "John Doe"),
                    ),
                ),
            ),
        ),
    ),
))
