@apolitical/testing v2.1.1

Apolitical Testing

Node.js module to encapsulate Jest testing helpers (backend)

Requirements

Requires the following to run:

• node.js 16.13.0+
• yarn

Installation

Install with yarn:

yarn add -D @apolitical/testing

Usage

First of all, include @apolitical/testing module:

const apoliticalTesting = require('@apolitical/testing');

Request

The recommended way to use request helper is first by creating an instance with the session secret to encode the JWT tokens:

const instance = apoliticalTesting.request({ sessionSecret: 'hello' });

Then, you can use your express app to generate supertests agents:

const agents = instance.generateAgents(app);

The agents are:

• loggedIn
• loggedOut
• loggedInAdmin
• loggedInMyself

The loggedInMyself agent can also be updated with custome token payload with the use of the assignTokenToMyself function.
