npm test

Guide

Put files in baseline folder similar to the API paths you want to test:

A file in

baseline/test/info.json

will result in a GET request to

http://localhost:8080/test/info

and compare the results to the local file.

Different baseline folder

Set the BASE_FOLDER env variable, e.g.

"scripts": {
  "test": "BASE_FOLDER=tests BASE_URL=\"http://localhost:8080\" apitester"
},

Slash handling

You can replace a slash / in the path with *slash*:

baseline/test*slash*info.json

will also fetch

http://localhost:8080/test/info

Adding tests shorthand method

Add to package.json

"scripts": {
  "add": "REMOVE_PATH=\"/api/content\" apitester add"
},

and run it with

npm run add -- http://localhost:4200/api/content/test/content/

The REMOVE_PATH variable is totally optional.
