06 - Тестирование клиентов Guzzle
Guzzle provides several tools that will enable you to easily mock the HTTP layer without needing to send requests over the internet.
- Mock handler
- History middleware
- Node.js web server for integration testing
Mock Handler
When testing HTTP clients, you often need to simulate specific scenarios like returning a successful response, returning an error, or returning specific responses in a certain order. Because unit tests need to be predictable, easy to bootstrap, and fast, hitting an actual remote API is a test smell.
Guzzle provides a mock handler that can be used to fulfill HTTP requests with a response or exception by shifting return values off of a queue.
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Handler\MockHandler;
use GuzzleHttp\HandlerStack;
use GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Response;
use GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Request;
use GuzzleHttp\Exception\RequestException;
// Create a mock and queue two responses.
$mock = new MockHandler([
new Response(200, ['X-Foo' => 'Bar']),
new Response(202, ['Content-Length' => 0]),
new RequestException("Error Communicating with Server", new Request('GET', 'test'))
]);
$handler = HandlerStack::create($mock);
$client = new Client(['handler' => $handler]);
// The first request is intercepted with the first response.
echo $client->request('GET', '/')->getStatusCode();
//> 200
// The second request is intercepted with the second response.
echo $client->request('GET', '/')->getStatusCode();
//> 202
When no more responses are in the queue and a request is sent, an OutOfBoundsException
is thrown.
History Middleware
When using things like the Mock
handler, you often need to know if the requests you expected to send were sent exactly as you intended. While the mock handler responds with mocked responses, the history middleware maintains a history of the requests that were sent by a client.
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\HandlerStack;
use GuzzleHttp\Middleware;
$container = [];
$history = Middleware::history($container);
$stack = HandlerStack::create();
// Add the history middleware to the handler stack.
$stack->push($history);
$client = new Client(['handler' => $stack]);
$client->request('GET', 'http://httpbin.org/get');
$client->request('HEAD', 'http://httpbin.org/get');
// Count the number of transactions
echo count($container);
//> 2
// Iterate over the requests and responses
foreach ($container as $transaction) {
echo $transaction['request']->getMethod();
//> GET, HEAD
if ($transaction['response']) {
echo $transaction['response']->getStatusCode();
//> 200, 200
} elseif ($transaction['error']) {
echo $transaction['error'];
//> exception
}
var_dump($transaction['options']);
//> dumps the request options of the sent request.
}
Test Web Server
Using mock responses is almost always enough when testing a web service client. When implementing custom HTTP handlers, you'll need to send actual HTTP requests in order to sufficiently test the handler. However, a best practice is to contact a local web server rather than a server over the internet.
- Tests are more reliable
- Tests do not require a network connection
- Tests have no external dependencies
Using the test server
Warning
The following functionality is provided to help developers of Guzzle develop HTTP handlers. There is no promise of backwards compatibility when it comes to the node.js test server or the GuzzleHttp\Tests\Server
class. If you are using the test server or Server
class outside of guzzlehttp/guzzle, then you will need to configure autoloading and ensure the web server is started manually.
Hint
You almost never need to use this test web server. You should only ever consider using it when developing HTTP handlers. The test web server is not necessary for mocking requests. For that, please use the Mock handler and history middleware.
Guzzle ships with a node.js test server that receives requests and returns responses from a queue. The test server exposes a simple API that is used to enqueue responses and inspect the requests that it has received.
Any operation on the Server
object will ensure that the server is running and wait until it is able to receive requests before returning.
GuzzleHttp\Tests\Server
provides a static interface to the test server. You can queue an HTTP response or an array of responses by calling Server::enqueue()
. This method accepts an array of Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface
and Exception
objects.
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Response;
use GuzzleHttp\Tests\Server;
// Start the server and queue a response
Server::enqueue([
new Response(200, ['Content-Length' => 0])
]);
$client = new Client(['base_uri' => Server::$url]);
echo $client->request('GET', '/foo')->getStatusCode();
// 200
When a response is queued on the test server, the test server will remove any previously queued responses. As the server receives requests, queued responses are dequeued and returned to the request. When the queue is empty, the server will return a 500 response.
You can inspect the requests that the server has retrieved by calling Server::received()
.
foreach (Server::received() as $response) {
echo $response->getStatusCode();
}
You can clear the list of received requests from the web server using the Server::flush()
method.
Server::flush();
echo count(Server::received());
// 0
