boostest v0.5.0

TL;DR

日本語版はこちら→README-ja.md

• Instantly create test data from TypeScript type, interface, or class 📝
• Partially overwrite test data in type or interface 🏗️
• Test data is output as actual code, becoming a user asset 💸

test.ts

type User = {
  name: string,
  // ...more complex types
}
interface Job = {
  name: string
  // ...more complex types
}
const user = boostestUser<User>();
const job = boostestJob<Job>();

class Test {
  // complex constructor with types
}
const test = boostestTest<typeof Test>(Test);

With a single command, you can generate test data for User types, Job instances, and Test classes.

npx boostest ./test.ts --tsconfig ./tsconfig.json

console.log('user', user);
// user { name: "test string data", ... }

console.log('job', job);
// job { name: "test string data", ... }

console.log('test', test);
// instance of Test { name: "test string data", ... }

Installation⬇️

# global
npm install -g boostest

# repo
npm install --save-dev boostest
pnpm add -D boostest
yarn add -D boostest

Command 💻

Ex) boostest ./target_file_path.ts -t ./tsconfig.json

Positionals:
  target_file_path  Specify target file in glob format                  [string]

Options:
  -t, --tsconfig  tsconfig.json path                                    [string]
      --help      Show help                                            [boolean]
      --version   Show version number                                  [boolean]

Basic Usage 🚀🚀

Define a function using type or interface

import {GetUserRes} form "...";

const testData = boostestGetUserRes<GetUserRes>();

Run the command to auto-generate boostestGetUserRes which returns test data

npx boostest [target_file_path]

or

touch boostest.setting.json
# and add settings to this file.

npx boostest

Upon successful command execution, a file containing code like the following will be output in the same directory as the target file.

export function boostestGetUserRes<T>(args?: Partial<T>): T {
  return ({
    'statusCode':'200',
    'body':'test data string',
    ...args
  } as T);
}

The generated test data can be partially overwritten by providing values to the arguments of boostestGetUserRes.

import {GetUserRes} form "...";

const testData = boostestGetUserRes<GetUserRes>({ statusCode: "503" });

boostest.setting.json

Creating boostest.setting.json is convenient for specifying multiple files with glob, etc.

{
  "target_pattern": ["src/**/*.ts"],
  "name": "boostest",
  "out_file_name": "test_data",
  "tsconfig": "./tsconfig.json"
}

target_pattern

Specify the target files in glob format.

Two files are targeted

"target_pattern": ["src/example.ts", "src/hoge.ts"]

ts files in src are targeted

"target_pattern": ["src/**/*.ts"],

name

Normally, functions containing boostest like the following are targeted, but you can freely change it using name.

// boostest[FreeName]<[TypeName or InterfaceName]>();
const testData = boostestTestData<TypeName>();

If you set name as follows, functions containing hoge will be targeted.

// "name": "hoge",
const testData = hogeTestData<TypeName>();

out_file_name

Normally, when you run the boostest command, the test data is written to a new file and saved with the name [target file name]_boostest.ts. By specifying out_file_name, you can change the boostest part to something like [target file name]_[out_file_name].ts.

The test files are created in the same directory as the target files respectively.

tsconfig

Specify the path to tsconfig.json. This is useful for module resolution, such as being able to use aliases like import {hoge} from "@alias/somethis...".

Detailed Usage and Explanation 🔧

boostest [file path] creates test data for functions containing boostest within the target file. Functions like boostestHoge, boostestTest are targeted. (The name boostest can be changed in boostest.setting.json)

The test data to be created is specified by Generics as type, interface, or typeof ClassName.

import { User } from './class/user';
import { boostestRes, boostestUserClass, boostestUserRes } from './demo_test_data';

type Res = {
  statusCode: '200' | '400' | '500';
  body: string;
};

interface UserRes {
  name: string;
  age: number;
}

const testData1 = boostestRes<Res>();
const testData2 = boostestUserRes<UserRes>();
const testDataInstance = boostestUserClass<typeof User>(User);


console.log('testData1', testData1);
// testData1 { statusCode: '200', body: 'test data string' }
console.log('testData2', testData2);
// testData2 { name: 'test data string', age: 42 }
console.log('testDataInstance', testDataInstance);
// testDataInstance User { name: 'string_val', age: 42 }

Functions like boostestRes are auto-generated by the command, so there is no need to define them beforehand.

For Class, the Generics part needs to be like typeof ClassName, and the Class entity is passed as the first argument. The test data is an instance initialized with arbitrary values.

For type and interface, values can be partially overwritten by passing them as arguments.

※ Single values like type age = number are not supported, as creating test data for them is not time-consuming.

Type Aliases 👌

type User = {
  name: string,
  age: number
}

type Job = string

const _ = boostestUser<User>();
const _ = boostestJob<Job>();



/** The following function is generated in another file */
export function boostestUser<T>(args?: Partial<T>): T {
	return ({
		'name':'test string data',
		'age':10,
		...args
	} as T);
}
export function boostestJob<T>() {
	return 'test string data';
}

Interface 👌

interface User {
  name: string,
  age: number
}

const result = boostestUser<User>();



/** The following function is generated in another file */
export function boostestUser<T>(args?: Partial<T>): T {
	return ({
		'name':'test string data',
		'age':10,
		...args
	} as T);
}

Class (with constructor) 👌

Test data can be created using constructor

class User {
  name: string;
  age: number

  constructor(name: string, age: number) {
    this.name = name;
    this.age = age;
  }
}

const _ = boostestUser<typeof User>(User);



/** The following function is generated in another file */
export function boostestUser<T extends abstract new (...args: any) => any>(User): T {
	return new User('test string data', 10);
}
