gosubmit

Description

Docs are available here: https://godoc.org/github.com/jeremija/gosubmit

Helps filling out plain html forms during testing. Will automatically take the existing values from the form so there is no need to manually set things like csrf tokens. Alerts about missing required fields, or when pattern validation does not match. See example_test.go for a full example.

package gosubmit_test

import (
	// TODO import app
	. "github.com/jeremija/gosubmit"

	"net/http"
	"net/http/httptest"
)

func TestLogin(t *testing.T) {
	w := httptest.NewRecorder()
	r := httptest.NewRequest("GET", "/auth/login", nil)

	app.ServeHTTP(w, r)

	r, err := ParseResponse(w.Result(), r.URL).FirstForm().NewTestRequest(
		Set("username", "user"),
		Set("password", "password"),
	)

	if err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("Error filling form: %s", err)
	}

	w := httptest.NewRecorder()
	app.ServeHTTP(w, r)

	if code := w.Result().StatusCode; code != http.StatusOK {
		t.Errorf("Expected status ok but got %d", code)
	}
}

Autofilling of all required input fields is supported:

r, err := ParseResponse(w.Result(), r.URL).FirstForm().NewTestRequest(
	Autofill(),
)

Elements that include a pattern attribute for validation will not be autofilled and have to be filled in manually. For example:

r, err := ParseResponse(w.Result(), r.URL).FirstForm().NewTestRequest(
	Autofill(),
	Set("validatedURL", "https://www.example.com"),
)

Testing Helpers

To avoid checking for error in tests manually when creating a new test request , the value of t *testing.T can be provided:

r := ParseResponse(w.Result(), r.URL).FirstForm().Testing(t).NewTestRequest(
	Autofill(),
	Set("validatedURL", "https://www.example.com"),
)

In case of any errors, the t.Fatalf() function will be called. t.Helper() is used appropriately to ensure line numbers reported by go test are correct.

Supported Elements

• input[type=checkbox]
• input[type=date]
• input[type=email]
• input[type=hidden]
• input[type=number]
• input[type=radio]
• input[type=text]
• input[type=url]
